Testimonial for Emily Wannenburg
Emily was recommended to me by my pelvic floor physical therapist, as a doula to interview and consider hiring due to her knowledge about pelvic floor, especially prolapse. When I called her for the first time, we spoke at length about how to labor when one has a prolapse. Emily calmed my fears about having a second vaginal birth while also having a prolapse.
As weeks went by, and I reached the last trimester and then had a 37 week ultrasound completed- we found out that our little one was breech. My OB had given me multiple options to consider, as we moved forward. Did I want to deliver breech? Or try a version first? Hope baby flips on her own? Or have a c-section?
All of this was very overwhelming, and my husband and I could not have been more thankful to have Emily to discuss all of this with. She did not just bring to the table her doula skills, but also her midwife background and her RN knowledge. Most importantly and what impressed me the most... AND what I valued and needed the most, was her non-judgemental response to us deciding on a c-section. Many factors played into this decision, outside of what is written here, but Emily’s response was that of: there are many ways babies are brought into this world- no one way is right or wrong. I couldn’t agree more. And my husband and I would have her be out doula again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Emily!
