Testimonial for Susan Rotman, AAHCC, CD(DONA)
Susan Rotman is the best! Hands down Susan is the best in the birthing business.
The Bradley Method class was very informative and we felt truly prepared for what to expect in the birthing experience. You'll learn the ins and outs of birth, meet other couples who are expecting, get to hear from great lactation specialists, learn first aid and CPR for infants, eat healthy snacks, and Susan even sends you helpful links from topics covered after each class.
We opted to have Susan become a part of our birthing team as our doula and she such an awesome addition. I speak for both of us when I say we couldn't imagine birthing without her. Encouragement and moral support for both my husband and I, her double hip squeeze was such a huge help during contractions, great communication with midwives and nurses, photos and video of our baby's first moments, frozen homemade meals, placenta capsules within the first 24 hours after birth, I could go on and on. If you're looking for a calm birthing experience I urge you to add Susan to your team. Birth is such an amazing experience and you want to be present for it, birthing with Susan as our doula gave us that experience.
The placenta capsules were a lifesaver, your adjusting to your new role as mom to this new little life, probably getting very little sleep at first, and on top of that hormone levels have to readjust after giving birth. I had no postpartum depression and the capsules helped me regain some energy. All mammals eat their placenta after giving birth, humans are now realizing the benefits of placenta and when you have your placenta encapsulated it's almost like taking a vitamin!
All of that being said, I recommend all services Susan offers: the Bradley method class, the doula services, and the placenta encapsulation. Do it all, you won't regret it! Susan is such a pro, I'm so thankful we found her. Do yourself a favor and add her to your birthing team, there's nobody better.
