Testimonial for Meagan Thompson

Before the birth, Meagan met two times with my husband and me. During those meetings, she asked about my birth preferences, answered my questions, and helped calm my fears about birth. In the time leading up to my delivery date, she was available by phone and email to answer any questions and to address any concerns that I had. Any time that I contacted her, she responded quickly. When I went into labor at 4 a.m., she answered my call right away and headed to the hospital. She arrived there just after we did and immediately started working on creating a calm environment for me and helping me through contractions. She recommended laboring positions, helped my husband assist me, and kept my family up to date when my husband was unable to do so. When a coping strategy, like massage, was not working for me, she paid attention to my cues and tried something different, like constant pressure or light touch. She also offered to take pictures of the birth and captured the moment that my daughter was born. After the birth, she stayed with me for two hours until I was ready to be moved to another room. My husband went to be with our daughter in the nursery and NICU, so having Meagan with me was comforting. Throughout my stay at the hospital and in the following weeks, she continued to follow up with me, making sure we were all doing well.  During our postpartum visit, we discussed how I felt about the birth and answered our questions. I highly recommend Meagan to anyone who's interested in using a doula. As a first-time mom who wanted an unmedicated birth, I knew that I'd need extra help in accomplishing my goal. Meagan helped me do just that, and I'm forever thankful.
