Testimonial for Autumn Duckworth
We loved Autumn! We were pretty late in the game (3rd trimester) when we decided we wanted a birth doula and Autumn was great about making plenty of time to meet with us prior to our due date to make sure we were comfortable. She did a wonderful job explaining about all the choices we could make so that we could have the birth experience we wanted. I wanted to have an unmedicated birth, and she was very supportive. We were having our baby at Swedish First Hill, and it was a huge bonus that she was very familiar with the hospital, and all their procedures. But hands down, the reason she stands out so much was the length of time she was with us, and her positivity throughout the long labor. She came to our house to help us with labor Sunday afternoon, and I didn't give birth until Monday night. And I pushed for 3 hours! She was the best cheerleader, and was so encouraging. She never judged one way or another, but was completely supportive each step of the way. She had so many tools and ideas and words of encouragement. We really feel like we couldn't have done it without her! If we have another baby we will definitely be calling Autumn to help with the birth!
