Testimonial for April Cañete Pavlish
As soon as I met April after our phone interview, I knew she would be the right fit as my doula. She had the most bright, positive and sincere characteristics. In our prenatal visits, she quickly became close to me and my family answering our basic questions like when do we know it’s labor or when to go to hospital. When the day finally came, she came to the L&D ward (Labor and Delivery) with great spirit.
I had requested delivery without epidural, but as contractions progressed, it became harder and harder. However, April used her soothing and massage techniques to comfort me. Finally in the evening, after 9 hours in labor, I felt my baby was ready to come out. It was then that the pain became most intense. April and the midwives did their best to help me get through the last stage and finally meet by baby boy. In the end, I was able to deliver naturally, without epidural, thanks to constant encouragement and help from April.
