Testimonial for Anastasia Garcia
My birth experience with Anastacia was nothing short of awesome. I wasn’t sure that I really needed a doula, but now, I will not have another birth without her. She was there for me every single step of the way offering support and encouragement as well as chapstick, water, food, massage, and essential oils. She was also crucial for my husband’s well being, making sure he got food and rest. My labor was very long and I ended up transferring to the hospital for a C section. Anastacia stayed with us the entire time and would have been in the operating room if they would have let her come in. I remember us both crying after my C section in the recovery room. I had talked with her earlier about how much I didn’t want a C section when we were going over my birth plan. But, that’s the thing about birth... It goes how it will go regardless of your plan...BUT planning on having a doula such as Anastacia was a decision that I could count on and one that I definitely did not regret. I am so thankful to her for her help and kindness before and during my labor and her continued friendship even after the birth of my beautiful son. She is down to earth, intuitive, extremely caring, comforting, and was decisive for me when I needed her to be. (My husband wanted to make her our son’s godmother, but we both have large families with lots of sisters, so that wouldn’t go over well with them...but that’s how great she is!) I highly highly highly recommend her and hope she will be available in a year or so when we try for our second child.
