There aren't enough wonderful things I can say about Sue that would capture what an important part of this journey she was. The day we had our son was by far the most amazing and important day of our lives and having Sue there to support and guide us meant so much. From the moment we took Sue on as our Doula, my husband and I felt so much more comfortable about the months and weeks ahead of us. Sue was always available, every text was responded to shortly, usually with a phone call rather then a written response. It was beyond helpful and reassuring knowing we had someone on "our side", someone who had our best interest, and someone with such great knowledge about pregnancy and birth, considering this was our very first time being pregnant. Sue was constantly checking in on us, asking how I felt both mentally and physically.
Our son was 10 days late and I decided to get induced. The day before the induction, I was a mix of so many emotions knowing that the next day our lives would change forever. Sue and I talked for a while the night before the induction, when we hung up, I couldn't have been more relieved knowing that she would be waiting for us at the hospital early the next morning. I had known all along we made the best decision by using Sue as our Doula but in that moment, I was certain we couldn't have chosen anyone better.
Arriving at the hospital and seeing Sue's smiling face truly put my husband and I at such peace. Sue was by our side the entire day, coaching us both, keeping us relaxed, educating us on anything we had questions on, and being our support system. She was there for us every step of the way and we are so thankful for all she has done for us. But Sue's communication didn't stop after the birth of our son, she continues to check in from time to time to see how we are all doing.
Hiring Sue as our Doula was the best decision we made & she will always hold a very special place in our hearts.
