Megan was our doula with our second baby, born on 12/6/18. From the first time we met her, she was super welcoming, kind and just made us very comfortable. I had a lot of pain during pregnancy due to SPD and Megan saw this from our first meeting because walking was hard and painful. She offered to come to our house weeks earlier than she normally would to help us with stretches for my pain. I had a high risk, stressful and anxiety-ridden pregnancy. I texted Megan a LOT throughout the last trimester of my pregnancy and she always responded with such kind and positive words. I never felt alone during my difficult times because of her. When I was 37 weeks and 3 days, I found out I had a pregnancy complication that required induction. I was trying for a VBAC so I asked her to come to the hospital shortly after I was admitted because I was so anxious and scared and really needed her support. She came shortly after and I felt instantly more relaxed. She was there with me the entire time I was being induced and working through contractions. I ended up having to have another c-section and make some decisions and it was so nice to be able to have Megan there to run my decisions by and feel better about them. It was also so nice that she knew my provider, whom I just met that day. During my c-section, I was soooo anxious and a wreck, honestly. She was there with her calming voice and comforting words and helped calm me down. She was able to take pictures and videos of my baby being born that I wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. It was so nice to have her there with me during my c-section while my husband was able to go be with the baby. I couldn’t have gotten through the end of my pregnancy or c-section without Megan! She is so calming, caring and just a genuinely caring person. You can tell she truly loves what she does! If we were to have another baby, I would ask Megan to be our doula in a heartbeat!
