Gabe was wonderful! Being on my 4th pregnancy and having had a doula before I knew much of what I needed in a doula and the type of support I wanted and Gabe was a perfect match. We met a few times before I went into labor and she answered any questions I had. I was in prodormal labor for several weeks before my son was born and she was wonderful in keeping in touch and making sure my husband and I were handling it well. The night I went to the hospital was thankfully slow and we told Gabe to stay home until the next morning and when she came the next day she was able to help me labor easily by walking the halls and drawing a bath for me. It was a great experience. With her help I was able to hold off on getting an epidural until 10 cm! This was my ultimate goal and I was more than thrilled to be able to hold off on the epidural until the very end which made pushing and delivery much easier (and the manual extraction of my placenta was much easier too!).
After a traumatic delivery with #3 Gabe was everything I needed to make #4 not only the calmest and easiest delivery I've had but also the best to recover from. She's a gem and you would be very lucky to have her help you too!
