Mallory was great to work with. She has a great communication style which made it easy to ask questions and get timely, easy-to-understand answers. She has so much knowledge about childbirth and made us feel comfortable by offering strategies for different situations that may arise during labor and delivery. I was worried about mobility with an epidural and Mallory was great in explaining how I would be able to move during labor, what my options were. She made me feel a lot better going into it and when it came down to it, she was great at helping me maneuver into the right positions (and even brough visuals to help me get into the right position).
We had a long, atypical birth and Mallory was able to help us naviagte difficult decisions by providing black and white information. She was by our side the entire weekend and was our advocate every step of the way. When our birth plan went out the window, she was supportive in navigating plan B and helped us feel confident in asking for what we wanted, pushing back against what we weren't comfortable with, and provided ideas and suggestions when we felt stuck.
She provided great post-partum follow-up including links to lactation videos and post-partum maternal care ideas. I appreciated her support after coming home from the hospital as it made me feel completely taken care of from begining to end.
