Testimonial for Melissa Duenas-Witter

Melissa gave me the tools and confidence for a completely different birth experience for my second pregnancy. I found her through Birth Tribe very early into my second pregnancy. I had a traumatic first birth experience and wanted to do everything in my power to change that with my second child. Melissa helped me to switch to a midwife group that delivers at a hopsital that is much more accepting and supportive of my birth plan. She was always available to me to answer questions and helped me to feel much less anxious with this pregnancy. During my second trimester, she showed us exercises to help baby get into better positon that made a huge difference. My birth experience was exactly what I had hoped for- I had a quick, natural labor and amazing recovery. Melissa was incredible while I was in labor - she knew exactly when and where she was needed and also could tell when I needed space/quiet. She knew exactly what to say at different points in my labor to keep me focused and motivated. I am so thankful for her and can't imagine going through another pregnancy without her help.
