Testimonial for Patricia Alatriste
Patricia was my doula for my second son! I've had a significant amount of experience with doulas with my first son and Patricia exceeded my expectations in every way.
My son was a vaginal breech birth and it was a very intense experience. Patricia helped me stay calm and focused. I barely spoke during labor but somehow she just jumped in and knew exactly what I needed and did it without any instructions from me.
I was very nervous going into this birth because I didn't feel like I had a support system. From the time Patricia arrived and through the entire birth experience I never once thought about my support system because she was right there. She provided verbal affirmations and physical support tirelessly. I remember distinctly having intense back labor and Patricia physically supporting me through that. I don't recall ever even telling her about it but she just knew.
I thought that her role ended once my son was born but she continued to be there for me even following his birth. She called me frequently to check in and provided recommendations regularly for each of my concerns. I felt so cared for and safe both so important through the birth process and in those early weeks. She truly brought so much comfort to me during a very difficult time for me.
