Testimonial for Luci Gimenes
When I got pregnant with #2 there was no doubt that I wanted...er needed Luci there for the birth. She'd been so amazing with my (very long very slow) first labor that I couldn't imagine delivery without her there. We had prenantal visits and regular phone/text contact through the last part of my pregnancy. Her calm reassurance was especially helpful when I went past my due date and was getting very stressed about being induced. Luci made sure to review my previous labor and elicited feedback about what was helpful and what we could try to do differently. When my labour finally started, Luci was there with her amazing massage, applying TENS and hear packs to my back and talking me calmly through every contraction. She was there to advocate for all the things I'd wanted to go differently this time and with her help and encouragement, managed to have the birth I'd wanted. She stayed to make sure I was comfortable, fed and nursing well afterwards and checked in regularly in the week following. Having Luci there for the birth of my second child was one of the best decisions I made. She's an amazing doula and if I have another I wouldn't hesitate to call her again!
