Testimonial for Chloe Wilcox. CD(DONA)
Where do I even begin on how amazing having Chloe as our doula was!?
My husband and I began searching for a doula when we found out we were expecting our second baby. Our first birthing experience was not a pleasant one and I was looking for anything we could do proactively to have a better experience the second time around.
We met with Chloe and one other doula but immediately felt drawn to her calm demeanor. We met with Chloe twice for prenatal appointments during which she went over our desires for labor. Our baby was presenting breech from about 32 weeks on. Chloe was so supportive during that time, we were in contact frequently to discuss different things I could be trying to flip baby.
After weeks of trying everything baby just wouldn't budge and I was scheduled for a csection. I was totally overwhelmed with losing our desires birth experience and terrified on major surgery. Chloe was so supportive, she was willing to come sit with me and talk it over before the surgery. Chloe met us at the hospital the morning of the procedure and her presence was invaluable! She stayed with us in the waiting room and kept me calm. Our hospital only allows one support person in the OR but Chloe was able to talk with the nurse, doctor and anesthesiologist and was able to join us in the OR. It was so amazing to have her in the OR, she was able to stay with me and keep me focused while all the crazy was going on around me.
Long story short I LOVED having Chloe as a part of our team. If/when we decide to have more children Chloe will be one of our first calls!
