Where to begin when sharing how much I love Catrice. She supported my husband and I during my pregnancy and was always, always available to answer any and all questions I have and offer the incredible advice. This was my first pregnancy after trying for many years to get pregnant, and eventaully did fall pregnant with our son with IVF. Catrice knew how precious this time was for us and was such a geniune, kind presence during my entire pregnancy.
On the day I went into labor, Catrice was available all day to talk to me and reassure me everything was ok. When I began to get nervous in the afternoon when I had no idea what to expect, she came over to check on us. When she saw I was still in early labor, she went to rest, and so did I. As I transitioned into active labor, Catrice was there by my side the entire time. There was not a moment I didn't feel supported, loved, or encouraged. She provided me with all the tools I needed to find the strength in me to have the natural delivery I had prayed for and planned. She knew of endless positions for me to get in to help with contractions and massaged my back through every single one. I have no idea what oils she used, but they also calmed me and gave me the confidence that I was ok and I could do it.
When it was time to go to the hospital to deliver my son, she was respectful to the hospital staff and at the same time knew when to speak up for me. She was right by my side during the entire delivery and was also an awesome support for my husband. After my son's birth, she stayed with us a short while, and then left us for family time. My husband and I adore Catrice and are beyond thankful she was at the birth of our son.
She was created to do this work, it's very clear that this is Catrice's gift- to nurture women, families, and bring babies into this world peacrfully and full of love.
