MaryBeth Nance served as our doula for the births of both of our children. Even though both births had to be done by c-section due to medical reasons, MaryBeth's presence, advocacy, and physical and emotional support helped me deal with the disappointment and nervousness that came with having a c-section. MaryBeth helps create an environment that is calm and positive for the trials of labor to unfold and I appreciated her warm touch and soothing tone in coaching me through the contractions. Even when I decided to get an epidural for my second labor, MaryBeth remained supportive and patiently waited with me for labor to progress, and when it became clear that I would need to have a c-section, MaryBeth, comforted me by saying that the birth is going to happen how it needs to happen. This was also something she told me during my first labor which ended up in an urgent c-section. MaryBeth is a great resource for women before, during, and after labor and I highly recommend her services as a doula.
