Testimonial for Emily Wannenburg
I highly recommend Emily as a doula! I was a military spouse far from home, due with my first child, and she was so warm and caring. Her vast knowledge was apparent and made me feel like I was in the best care possible, no matter what happened during labor. I was set on having a natural birth, and although she fully supported that (or any birth plan you may have) she was also truthful and reminded me that i must be ready with a plan b as you never know what will happen during labor. Emily checked in throughout my pregnancy and then when my water broke, she helped me labor at home, providing helpful tips for my husband to help ease my pain, talking me through the breathing exercises during contractions, etc. When I was ready to go to the hospital, she again was very supportive. At no time did she take control, only answered oro questions directed at her, explained things we didn't quite understand, always allowing us to make the choices. After the birth of my daughter, she slipped out and allowed us to enjoy our family, but checked in again a few times, along with making a house visit once family had left. My husband was not on board originally, but once labor started, he was more than glad to have Emily there and have her provide him with ways to be involved. I was disappointed, to say the least, that when we were expecting my son, we were states away and did not get the job of having Emily assist us with that pregnancy. We would have loved to have her as our doula again! Can't say enough about what a wonderful choice Emily is as your doula and how fortunate you would be to have her there. Xo
