Testimonial for Amber Stewart
Amber was my doula for both of my births. My first birth experience was quite traumatic, it was not a live birth. She was so invested in my pregnancy, both of them. When I discovered that I had miscarried my first, Amber was the first person I wanted to tell and knew I would find safe comfort in her arms. I don’t know what I would have done had I not had her by my side for the most emotionally trying time of my life. At the birth of my son, my second birth, Amber was my rock before, during, and after my labor and delivery. She was my voice when I was not coherent to say what I wanted and needed. She cared for my physical body as well as my emotional and knew how to get those needs met for me. Whether is was showing the others in the room how and where to massage me, or whispering in my ear, “You’re doing amazing!! One more centimeter and you can push!” She was hands-down the most important memeber of my five person birthing team, which included my midwife, my partner, and my mother. I know in my heart, Amber’s support in the birth of my son, is the reason I did not get an epidural. Had I not had her there, I truly believe I would not have had the strength to carry out my original birth plan to not get an epidural. Amber is a natural healer. This is not the first lifetime this woman has carried this gift. Not only is she knowledgeable and educated in this field, she has a grounding and energy that can be felt immediately once you share space with her. That cannot be taught. I love this woman and everything she has done for me and other women who need female support during one of the most pivotal moments of their entire lives. She carried me through the doorway of Maiden to Mother.
