Testimonial for Elise Benoit
Where do I begin? My labor/delivery "medical" story is not one that I would wish on anyone. It was 62 hours long, with many complications, and an innumerable amount of variables. But the ONE thing that my husband and I could count on as a constant during the entire process, was Elise's calm demeanor and knowledge of the labor process. Being an only child, I had never experienced labor alongside any other family members and was not sure what to expect but I knew that throughout the process, I could rely on Elise to tell me the truth and be honest if things were not going "to plan". She helped to keep me calm throughout the hardest experience of my life, but also helped us to cherish the happiness that followed at the end of the long journey. Also, during our pre-delivery meetings with Elise, she not only prepared us for labor/delivery but she also helped to prepare us for what came AFTER! The nights can be long and the days even longer, but she answered every phone call, every text message and every frantic question with grace and support. What was my experience with Elise Benoit? My experience changed how I perceive motherhood and one day, I hope to walk in my next labor/delivery with full confidence in myself with her by my side!
