Testimonial for Emily Wannenburg
Emily was my doula for both of my births. With my first, I had to have a c-section because my baby was breech. Emily was nothing short of amazing in that operating room. She was there for my husband to keep him calm and to explain everything that was happening. For me she was a constant support from holding a cool cloth on my head when I was sick from anesthesia to keeping me informed each step of the way. For my second birth, I was able to attempt (and successfully complete) a VBAC. I know without a doubt that I would not have had a successful VBAC without Emily's help. She was there from the beginning, barely taking a break for the entire 3 days of labor. She explained to us what would happen each step of the way and due to some unusual circumstances with my labor she worked tirelessly to brainstorm new ideas for me to try to help my labor progression. She performed countless comfort measures, gave me encouragment when I desperately needed it, and literally held my baby in place for what seemed like hours at a time. My husband and I have said time and time again that we don't know how people have babies without a doula-and more specifically for us...Emily! Both of my births were special in different ways and it truly is because Emily was there to support me and help give me the experiences I wanted!
