I am very grateful to have such a Chinese-speaking and experienced doula. She followed up with me for a month prior to my birth, and cared for all my conditions in a meticulous manner.
When I started contractions at 4:00 in the morning, I went to the hospital and called Ellen. She arrived 20 minutes later which was very supporting. When I was contracting, my stomach was very painful and my lower back was extremely sore. She helped me to ease the pain and massaged my back with very firm squeezes. I was also have my two-and-a-half-year-old son at the birth with me, Ellen helped me to take care of my son.
Before I gave birth to my second, She continued giving me a chicken soup, so that I could have energy to push and not being hungry. She also coached me with pushing efficiently. She was very caring and encouraging the whole time. She made me feel warm and loved.
Finally, the child was born very smoothly after half an hour, I very appreciated her, my doula, Ellen.
