Testimonial for Tia Dowling-Ketant, CD, CLC
Some people write out their birth preferences and call it a birth plan. But you know what they say. We plan and God laughs. I wasn't sure initially if I really needed s doula for my second birth, but hiring Tia eas the best decision I ever made. At 38 weeks my son's heartbeat was concerning, and the doctor wanted to induce my labor. I was very scared, nervous, uncomfortable, and upset but Tia was there every step of the way. She helped me ask the right questions which helped me to make the best decision I could. More importantly she helped me asked the questions that made the doctors stop and think about how to treat me not just as a patient but as a human being. All this was going on while my husband was focusing more on our 2 year old daughter who was down with an upper respiratory virus. Had it not been for Tia my husband probably would have missed the birth of our son. Her support and mere presence was invaluable to me. The best part was that Tia is a Bravo fan and we watched Real Housewives together. Who gonna check me boo!
