Testimonial for Virginia Rivenbark, AdvCD(DONA), LCCE, CLC
Virginia was amazing, and my natural child birth experience would have been much too overwhelming for me without her. I had two previously heavily medicated births and a good friend highly recommend natural child birth and Virginia. Once I read up on it, I was very interested. I was so happy with Virginia right away because she was flexible with our schedule, easy to get along with and so knowledgeable. I was pretty sure I wanted to do a natural child birth, but I felt confident with Virginia that she was going to help me to make the best decisions for me, whether that be with medication or not. When it came time for the birth, I was so glad she was there. For most of the labor, it was just Virginia and my husband in the hospital room, and she was able to answer any questions I had, suggest different positions to try and let us know what to expect. When I was pushing I got very overwhelmed and I was having a hard time following the midwife’s instructions. Virginia put her face right in front of mine and got me through. I will never forget that moment, and will be forever grateful to Virginia. She stayed with us for a while to make sure we were settled. She checked in on me after we got home as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Virginia to any mom planning a natural childbirth, or even someone who is just curious about it.
