Testimonial for Jennifer Monaghan, CD(DONA) HCHD
Jenn was warm and supportive from the first time we met. She listened to the details of my first pregnancy and delivery experience, which led to a scheduled c-section, and helped to plan our VBAC experience. She responded promptly when I texted her random questions, and had good advice when I needed it. When I went into labor, she kept in touch with me and guided me in managing the discomfort as my contractions intensified. Once I finally started active labor, Jenn met us at the hospital and was an absolute STAR. My OB wasn't on call, and the on-call doctor from his practice got pulled over for speeding to get to the hospital; while the nurses scrambled to get my room set up, Jenn helped me to cope with the contractions and focus on helping my baby to make her way out. Although my labor was a blur (delivery took less than 2 hours from the time we checked in to the hospital), I clearly remember being grateful for Jenn's calm, positive support. We didn't have time to set up all the aesthetics I'd requested when we met, but she was there to support me and my husband in having the unmedicated natural birth I'd always wanted. The experience was so positive, I'm almost tempted to have a third child!
