Testimonial for MyBirth
Jenny is warm and friendly person who feels like an old friend as soon as you meet her. We used her for our second baby. Our insurance required we use a Bon Secours hospital instead of our first choice at VCU Medical Center, where we had our first with the midwives. Despite having been through a birth once without a doula, I felt strongly that my experience with my second birth would be greatly improved with Jenny's help. I was right. I was never comfortable with my doctor and nurses helping create the birth plan I wanted at St. Mary's. What I wanted was a natural, low-intervention, non-medical experience. That wasn't entirely possible. I was keenly aware of the sterile smell of the room and that it made me mildly nautious. Jenny came prepared with aroma therapy that instantly took the edge off my nerves. Her greatest gift to us was the advice she was able to give my husband to help relieve some of the pressure from my contractions. Her help was memorable, caring, and invaluable to me. Having her there to take pictures of the birth was an added bonus that I am so greatful for.
