Testimonial for Priscilla Brickey & Jennifer Anderson LM, CPM, LMT, CBS, CD(DONA)
The night my water broke, I woke my husband up and told him it was time to gather our things, call family to watch our 3 year old son, and start making our way to the hospital. I texted my doula and told her that it was go time. I got a text back that said that she had had a root canal and was on heavy pain medication, and that a back up doula would assist me with the birth of our second son. I was honestly so blindsided and disappointed. I had never met this “backup doula” before and did not have a relationship established with her. But God had a better plan for me. I met Priscilla as she came into our room. It immediately felt as if I knew her my whole life, and she made me feel very at ease with her energy. She helped me tremendously with massage therapy especially since I was attempting an unmedicated, natural hypnobabies birth. Her massage therapy is seriously the best care I had ever received and certainly relaxed and eased my pain through my contractions. Her encouraging words definitely guided me, and I quickly turned to her for her birth coaching expertise. She recommended different techniques to help progress labor and different positions to help with labor. When I had to be placed on Pitocin, she coached me through that as well keeping my spirits uplifted. I was successful in delivering a 9 lb precious baby boy into this world without an epidural or other pain medications, and I have no doubt that Priscilla was a contributing factor in that equation. After our son was born, my husband even mentioned to me that he really liked her and I completely agreed. She continually checked up on me after birth and when I was having trouble breastfeeding, she coached me through that as well. I am so thankful for her expertise, and I cannot speak enough accolades about the care I received from Priscilla.
