Testimonial for Birth You Desire ® LLC
Words cannot express how much I appreciate Ursula/Birth You Desire. I’ve used her doula services twice and taken two of her birthing classes (one for new parents and one birthing again refresher class). She has provided me great emotional support and provided valuable advice (including for my two pregnancies and labor, and for the miscarriages I have experienced). I had such a good experience with her the first time that when I got pregnant with my second, she was one of the first people I contacted, to make sure she saved a spot for me for her services. We are so grateful for her because she helped us have the natural births we desired. I could not have achieved this goal without her.
Regarding her birthing classes, they are very informative, teaching you things like the different stages of labor and different positions to labor in (knowledge is power). Her refresher class also made us consider things like how to help our first child adjust to welcoming a sibling.
Regarding her doula services, I could not recommend them more. Ursula is extremely knowledgeable and has a lot of experience; she’s helped delivered over 1200 babies. She also has a great intuition and understanding of the birthing process. For example, I wanted to labor as much as I could at home before going to the hospital. For my first, I labored at home for over 10 hours. For my second, Ursula wanted me to go to the hospital after laboring at home for 3 hour and I was hesitant. But she told me it was time to go, which was a good thing because I delivered the baby 2 hours after arriving at the hospital. Also, when I was in labor, she kept me calm and helped me keep tension out of my body. She gave me the confidence I needed to know I can trust my body. Even the nurses and doctors commented how well I labored and how calm I was, which I can largely attribute to Ursula. Again, I give BYD/Ursula my highest recommendation for their doula services.
