Testimonial for Shaman Tomecas, CHD(The Matrona)
As a new mother, I was nervous about the the physical and mental process the female body experiences during pregnancy and childbirth. Fortunately, a Doula named Tomecas Thomas who not only experienced natural childbirth but for the last 12 yrs had educated herself on preparing other mothers to bring there blessings into the world the safest and healthiest way possible. Tomecas visited my home to check in on myself, my husband, and my stepson to see how everyone was handling the pregnancy. We practiced breathing, signs of labor, labor positions that would not only help me but get my husband involved as well, and details and contents of my hospital bag. She also helped me with my birth plan and promised it would only change by my request or if it were a life threatening situation. Tomecas prepared me for delivery and postpartum and also educated me on breastfeeding and its benefits. Tomecas was in my delivery the entire 3 days I was in labor she never left my side ( just to eat :). I received encouragement physically and mentally through massage, stretching techniques, occasional sucker!:) , calming music and words of encouragement. Also, Tomecas kept a detailed log that detailed time and date of contractions, doctor and nurse check in, vital signs, delivery time, weight ,height of my baby. My husband was a great support and Tomecas managed to support him as well make sure he had his strength reminded him to take breaks to eat and sleep while she would take his place. postpartum care and support to continue to encourage breastfeeding and any other orders after discharge from the hospital. Tomecas was a great Doula well educated and experienced in her expertise. I would have 10 more as long as Tomecas is by my side. OK really I want 2 more! :) Thanks for your time, Tomecas.
