Testimonial for Christina Pruitt
There are not enough words to truly descirbe how thankful my husband and I are for Christina and her services.
My husband decided we needed a doula after reading about them in "The Expectant Father." When inquring with friends, Christina's name continued to come up. Before I contacted Christina I actually visited this site and read her testimonals, needless to say I knew I needed her by my side. My husband and I met with Christina in February and while she already had another client with my same due date we moved forward with our fingers crossed that me and her other client wouldn't go at the same time. In our short time with Christina we could tell how passionate being a doula was to her as well as teaching her clients on how to come up with their own birth plan and also the importance/benefits of natural child birth.
Three weeks before my due date my water broke. Since baby was not considered full term my doctor suggested that I check into the hosiptal right way. The Friday before my son was born I arrived at the hositpal about 5:00pm - Christina met us there within the hour and walked us through breathing execrises and execrises for me to do on the birthing ball. Around midnight I was about 5-6cm dilated with my contractions getting stornger and then around four in the morning my contractions were in full force. Christina was be my side massaging by back and directing me in hip sways (which felt amazing) and breathing exercises. She was also coaching my husband on what he could do to help during labor and a couse to keep him calm. At 7:26am we welcomed our son into this world with a natural birth.
I know a 100% that if Christina had not been there, I would have not been able to follow my birth plan and have a natural birth. Christina is an absolute treasure and I am not lucky to call her a friend. If my husband and I decide to have more children she will definitely be one of our first calls! Jennifer & Rusty
