Testimonial for Megan Boone
A husbands perspective.... At first conversation, hiring a Doula appears to be another expense in an event that already commands a lot of money! In my mind what helped ease the thoughts of the additional expense was the assurance that we would have at our disposal someone who has an abundance of prior knowledge and experiences with numerous other births. This peace of mind and understanding helped temper all the anxieties that come with the process. With both of us not having prior experience in this realm, it was comforting to have a person to console with throughout and who has intimate knowledge on how to adjust and help my wife through the process. Not only was she able to console but was also able to provide suitable exercises to help ease the burden of labor pains. Having Megan available and at our home for the majority of the labor day helped to avoid rushing to the hospital too early and kept us in a relaxed environment. Megan also understood cues better than me from my wife and was able to provide sound advice without pushing anyone. She knew when to get a hold of the Midwives and the time we should part to the hospital. She was also conscious on not being intrusive and gave us time and space to also embrace the moment. Another important part of the service Megan provided was being on hand to photograph and capture the birth, something that is next to impossible while you are caught up in the moment. She was able to catch a lot of moments on film that we are able to cherish.
