Testimonial for Demi Lucas, Doula, IBCLC, PMH-C
I can’t imagine going through labor and delivery without Demi! We made a decision in the final weeks of pregnancy to try for a VBAC and we knew we’d need support. From the moment we met Demi we felt more confident about our decision and so much more at ease. She provided all the support & resources I needed to mentally, emotionally & physically prepare for what was ahead in the few weeks we had left. Her prenatal support put me at ease and gave me the confidence I needed. When it came time to have the baby Demi was amazing! She was so calm, strong, reassuring and knew how to help lead me through extremely difficult moments. My husband was so grateful for her as well. It also gave him confidence leading up to labor as well as help knowing what he could do to help when the time came! Having Demi there made us feel safe and assured, and the prenatal care made us so much more educated! For example, before meeting Demi I didn’t know I could ask to not be immediately hooked to an IV, and while they had to put the port in, I never needed to be hooked up and that gave me the freedom I needed to move around when labor wasn’t progressing as quickly as I hoped. When I expressed my concern Demi suggested I stand up if I could and after laboring that way we progressed much faster! I can’t imagine not having her consistent support through this experience. I am so thankful Demi was there to guide and coach us though the hardest thing I’ve ever done — unmedicated childbirth!! We avoided a lot of fear and frustration by choosing to work with Demi. She gave me the confidence I needed each step of the way. Again, I cannot imagine walking through that without her. We are so grateful. Thank you, Demi!
