My birth was the most amazing experience and Kate helped make that possible for me. My water broke 3 weeks early and Kate helped me achieve the natural birthing experience I wanted even though I had to use Pitocin to help make the contractions stronger. My husband was so grateful for her help because the birth was tiring for both of us, and she helped me stay focused using the hypnobirthing techniques that my husband and I both learned when my husband needed a break. After my son was born she was there with me after he had to go to the NICU. He was in the NICU for 3 weeks due to feeding issues which made breastfeeding impossible. Through all this, Kate kept encouraging me to not give up and shared all her knowledge with me related to breastfeeding. After a month my son was finally ready to breastfeed so Kate came over to help us. With her help my son was successful and he is still going strong at 3 months. Kate absolutely loves being a doula and it shows in her enthusiasm.
