Ravae is an amazing doula! My husband and I were committed to having an unmediated birth for our first child and we could not have done it without her. With her assistance, we were able to have the birth we wanted. We labored at home for a couple of hours utilizing the pain management techniques Ravae taught my husband and me leading up to the birth (hot shower, counter pressure for back labor pain, birthing ball, abdominal breathing, positive visualizations etc...). I was admitted to the hospital at 5 cm and as soon as Ravae arrive, she jumped right in using various massage and pain management techniques to help me move through each contraction. She, working closely with my husband, truly helped make the pain manageable. Around 6 hours later, I was holding my daughter. After the birth, she even came by to visit us at home and provide assistance with breastfeeding. Overall, my husband and I had a wonderful experience with Ravae and will be calling her again when we are ready to have our second child.
