Rebecca was the first doula we met with — and the only one. After our meeting, I knew I wanted her at our birth, and it was definitely the right decision. She has an excellent demeanor: knowledgable, warm, and reassuring with just the right amount of no-nonsense that you want in someone helping you through such a vulnerable time. My husband had been a bit reticent on the idea of a doula, but after the birth, he spoke very highly of Rebecca.
During the birth, Rebecca noticed early if things were going slowly or stalling, and helped with position chnaged or suggestions to keep things moving or make sure I got rest. She also knew that my husband wanted to be my primary labor partner and new how to assist, step up to let him rest, or step back and let him be there. I achieved my goal of not getting an epidural even though I hadn't taken any birthing classes, and I believe that having Rebecca as a doula was an enormous part of that, as she helped my labor progress and helped me get through the pain and discomfort. Plus, we ended up with beautiful photos of the birth that we'll cherish forever.
