Testimonial for Lynn Christensen, CD(DONA), CLC, LCCE
Lynn is an amazing doula. I was fortunate to have her as my doula for my baby in 2014. She is supportive, knowledgeable and extremely non-judgmental. She helped me not just as a doula, but as a friend and confidante.
We met Lynn almost at the middle of my third-trimester and we were lucky that she had availability to take me on. She was a wealth of information and gave me a beautiful bound folder with tons of information - a resource I used a lot before going into labor and after. I addition, she had these lovely inspirational letters to be opened for every week of pregnancy. Something I found very touching and looked forward to opening, to commemorate every week that went by, that much closer to having the baby.
The best part about working with Lynn is her calm demeanour and her ability to give you advise, helping you make a decision, never hurrying you and always supporting whatever choices you make. I chose to take an epidural, but due to some emergency at the hospital, the administration of it was delayed. Lynn helped me through the terrible contractions (made much worse due to the fact that I was induced and had a 100 things attached to me) until the epidural could be administered.
My lactation journey was pretty frought and things didn't work out as I expected. Lynn visited me after the baby was born at the hospital and again at home. Each time bearing little tokens and full of positivity and encouragment. Something I was in dire need of. The most beautiful of all was that she wrote a long description of my birthing experience and gave it to me. Something I cherish. Trust me, you or your husband won't remember a thing, so it was nice to have someone write it down.
I would strongly recommend Lynn to be your birthing partner, friend and advisor, and of course, your doula!
