Testimonial for Victoria Michonski CD, HCHI, CLC
I cannot speak highly enough of my birth experience with Victoria and would not hesitate to recommend her to a friend (and use her for any future pregnancies)! As a first time mom, my labor was somewhat unusual - it came on fast and furious when my water broke in the middle of the night and lasted less than six hours. Since I launched immediately into active labor, Victoria did a tremendous job calming both me and my panicked husband - we were totally overwhelmed by the speedy onset of intense contractions. She implemented some of the best comfort measures (back massage!) and helped us get to the hospital just in time (I was 10cm). She was consistently calm and helped me advocate for the pushing position that worked best for me. I also belive that by helping me hand express colostrum in the hour after my daughter's birth, Victoria was instrumental in keeping my daughter off formula supplements and out of the NICU. My birth experience could have, and very likely would have, gone so differently without Victoria there! Victoria also snapped some of the most beautiful birth photos...I don't think I would have ever asked for them, but now I cherish them very much. I so recommend her (and Heather)!!
