My husband was very distant and overwhelmed during the delivery of our first child and I knew that I wanted to have someone by my side who had been through this and could give me the support that my husband wasn’t able to give. I knew Shanan was interested in becoming a doula and I asked if she would be willing to be mine for my second delivery. Shanan is one of the most caring and understanding people I know! I went into my deleivery with the mind set that I wanted to deliver natural.There were many times from being induced to delivering that I wanted to just give up! If I wouldn’t have had her by my side my goal would have never been met, she was right next to me the whole 11 hours talking me through each and every contraction. This delivery was much more enjoyable having Shanan there, and I would recommend Shanan to any mom to be who is unsure of delivery or just needs a little extra support in a very stressful time. She was the perfect match for me and I‘m very lucky to have had her by my side, I know she will be just as amazing for other women as well and they won’t be disappointed if they decided to have her be apart of their experience.
