Testimonial for Anna Tarasova

With Anna I got my natural unmedicated VBAC. The experience was incomparable with previous c-section birth. And a lot of it thanks to Anna and to my doctor. I had an amazing experience! I was in prodromal labor for good 2 days and she was in contact with me during the entire time, she told me what exercises to do to help the labor progress. On the day of delivery I had doctor appointment at 3pm. He checked me and I was 6cm. We went straight to the hospital and Anna arrived promptly after. We were walking the halls of the hospital and on each surge I was resting and holding the bars and Anna was doing counterpressure massage on my lower back. Then sometime after I got into the tub and Anna suggested to pour some warm water from the shower during the contractions - it helped a lot! During pushing stage she was couching me and during breaks was trying to explain what to do and what else to try and it helped a lot. I was pushing for 2 hours and was exhausted, but encouragement from her side, nurses and doc made me go further and I did it! I would say doula is an absolute must for all first-time moms and for all who is trying VBAC. if I decide to have another baby I definitely will have her again.
