Testimonial for Rhonda Fellows
I want to start off by saying Rhonda is amazing!
Rhonda was a part of my doula team and even though she was not the doula that attended the birth of my baby I met with her throughout my pregnancy. From the first time I met with her she helped me feel empowered to make my choices during pregnancy, labor, delivery and postpartum. She encouraged me to think about things I may not have thought about and to also always ask questions. She also helped educate me and my partner. She was able to provide us with material to read, watch and even showed us how to do things hands on. She hit every way of learning. One of the meetings Rhonda came to my house to practice labor and birthing positions. While she was there we had very open conversations and she would always leave room for questions. My partner was very curious about some topics and she gave him all of the information as well as things she had witnessed at other births. After she left that day he spoke about how much he appreciated all of the information from that day. While in labor I used all but one of the laboring positions she showed me. I remembered that she told me not to do anything I wasn’t comfortable doing. After coming home from the hospital I grabbed a sheet of paper that she gave me and taped it to the fridge. It is a postpartum pledge and she asked that I pick a few to do for myself daily. Before I had my daughter the things on the paper seemed so simple but after the first few days postpartum I realized just completing a few was extra work but it was worth it. It’s important to be in tune with your body and take care of it. Almost 8 weeks later and when I walk past the paper I make sure I have done at least 5 things on the list. Having Rhonda on my support team was somthing I absolutly loved!
