Testimonial for Jennifer Wisse
"Where were you for the first two kids?" My Husband asked Jen after the birth of our 3rd baby in May. I think that statement sums it up!
Having Jen as a doula with this baby was a game changer. She advocated for my wants and desires during my hospital birth. The nurse was in and out it so was nice to have someone there by my side giving my back counter pressure (with my awful back labor) using essential oils, giving position recommendations, massage, heating pads and cold wash cloths to ease the pain of labor. She knew what I needed when I didn't know what I needed. My labor and delivery nurse didn't seem to be "on my team" (though it may have been that had too many patients that day) Nonetheless, that made it especially important to have someone there dedicated to me, who was knowledgeable and actually helpful.
The support Jen gave me took the pressure off of my husband and really allowed him to enjoy the whole process as well. Throughout the pregnancy Jen was always available to give advice and suggestions on how to tone the uterus for birth, help ease my back pain from pregnancy and how to help naturally induce labor during the last week of my pregnancy. I was so grateful to have Jen as my doula for my natural hospital birth.
I would highly recommend using a Jen as a doula! ( Clearly so would my husband!)
