Testimonial for Amy Durham
When my water broke in the middle of the night, Amy was there via phone and text messages to get updates and ask how I was doing all through the night and morning. She was very encouraging and supportive, and I didn't have to worry when I started my labor because I knew Amy would guide us through. It was also very helpful to have her there to tag-team with my husband. She was great at suggesting things for him to do, or filling in the gaps with whatever he wasn't doing. He felt like I was taken care of whenever he needed to get food or use the restroom (or deal with our car breaking down!), because Amy was there as our trusted companion, friend, and expert.
Amy was incredible at providing physical support, acupressure, pushing on my back for hours on end to provide relief during my back labor, offered suggestions of other positions to try to move labor along, and came prepared with many tools to make the labor process more comfortable, even the little things like mints and essentil oils when I got sick. Several times I was offered to make decisions that were not a part of my originally desired birth plan, and it was comforting to have Amy there to talk it through to feel like I was actively choosing what was happening. We loved working with her and we were so happy with how our birth turned out because of her involvement.
