Testimonial for Kelly Sunshine CD(DONA)
When people asked, why are you having a doula? I gave the answers I had read about and observed at my cousin’s birth. She is a coach, a cheerleader, an advocate, etc. All these things are true of Kelly. It wasn’t until I labored and delivered my daughter that I knew the reasons you need Kelly there. She has a sense of what a laboring mother needs. She could tell I wanted to be left alone and coached my husband how to assist me during the hard parts. For me, the pushing phase was the hardest. I was near the end, exhausted, and wanting to give up. Kelly could tell I was running low on steam and had the words and encouragement I needed in the moment to push until the end. Fast-forward to me finding out I was pregnant again and there was no doubt in my mind Kelly would be there! I was nervous about birthing naturally again, but knew there was no other way I was giving birth. I knew I would need her support and encouragement the second time around. While I was texting her in labor she knew it would go faster and had a feeling I was close. My husband and I were waiting for my parents to arrive to watch our daughter, and labor came on fast. Kelly picked me up and drove me to the hospital because there was no time to waste. At the hospital, she once again, knew just what I needed. She held my hips to assist with my contractions and gave me sweet, encouraging words. She was the one who could tell I was ready to push. I was scared about the pushing phase again, because I was not a fan the last time. My water had not broken. I told her I was scared and she assured me if the doctor broke my water it would take one push and my son would be here. She calmed my nerves, made me feel at ease, and ready to have my son. It happened just as she said. Kelly is a Godsend for pregnant women. From the beginning of your pregnancy to the birth, she will enhance your journey and deepen your experience. She is a truly wonderful and gifted doula.
