My experience with Greta was a special one. She is a dear friend of mine and has been for years now, so when my midwife told me she was going to be attending our prenatal appointments and assisting in our birth, I was ecstatic! My prenatal started later than most- around 16 weeks- but since this was my fourth pregnancy/delivery, I kind of knew the ropes and everything was going smoothly. So when our first appointment actually took place, I was very impressed with Greta and how in tune she was with the whole process. She is the kindest, most genuine and attentive human I’ve met and I knew she would fit in perfectly to the environment I had planned for our delivery. I did not, however, know just HOW intricate her role would be until a few weeks later.
At 18 weeks, I miscarried our sweet girl. It was the hardest labor and delivery I have ever been through in every way possible. Greta, however was amazing. She took care of me in ways I didn’t even know I needed. She was gentle and intentional and encouraging through it all. Even when my body was refusing to fully let go and we were all waiting for hours on end for everything to completely release- Greta was there. Even after everything transpired and we were all exhausted, Greta was there, cleaning up and making sure we were all okay before she left. Even for days afterward, she was there, calling us and checking on us to see if there was anything we needed. She. Was. Amazing!
When you choose Greta as your doula, you’re getting so much more than just a title...you’re getting an amazing human being that truly and genuinely cares about YOU.
