Testimonial for Francie Webb
Working with Francie as my birth doula was the best decision I made throughout my pregnancy and birth. We hired Francie pretty early on in my pregnancy (I think only a few months in!) because I was a first-timer and feeling pretty anxious about everything. From the moment my husband and I met Francie, we felt like we were longtime friends with her; she has such a calm, friendly, warm demeanor that you can't help but fall in love with her right away. We kept in contact throughout my pregnancy, and any time I had any questions about ANYTHING (no, seriously, ANYTHING), I would text Francie and she would get back to me right away. She was my pregnancy guru.
Towards the end of my pregnancy, I was having some minor complications and baby was turned breech. Francie helped me put together a plan so I felt more in control of the situation. This included putting me in touch with resources to work on turning the baby, and we discussed my options in case baby doesn't turn. I felt more comfortable with the idea of an emergency C-section because we sat down together and reviewed exactly what would happen, and what my options would be. I ended up having very early contractions and was rushed to the hospital for an emergency section, and Francie was there the entire time. She was my advocate, helping me through the entire thing. Comforted me while I cried, spoke to the nurses to get me everything I needed, stayed with me pre-surgery, hung out with my family while they waited during the procedure.
After the birth of my beautiful little girl Lyla, Francie and I have kept in touch. She checked up on me a lot after the birth to see how I was feeling about the emergency section, and adapting to new mom life. She put me in touch with a wonderful lactation consultant who I still use today. It has been almost 9 months since my daughter was born, and I still love and cherish Francie. I will absolutely NEED her by my side for any future babies!
