Let me start by saying I believe with all my heart Austin was the reason we had a successful VBAC with our son. I truly, don’t know if it would have happened with our her.
Austin was 100% involved from the day we decided to use her as our doula! She helped educate and support us every step of the way. She was knowledgeable, patient ( with my 12,000 questions, worries and fears) and the positive support I needed when I had outside negative “noise” around me.
When it came to my labor, she was my literal Angel. She was there when I needed her, she stepped back when I needed my husband. She was quite, but there every step of the way. She knew what to say/ do to support me, keep me positive and keep my eye on the prize.
She was sooooo patient as my labor was almost 40 hours ( she was with me majority of my labor and would have been there from the beginning if I needed her). She reminded me of my options when I wanted to give up and couldn’t think clearly anymore. She was my literal cheerleader as I pushed and her poor fingers were probably numb by the end of my pushing.
I can’t even put into words how much my husband and I appreciated all Austin did for us throughout our pregnancy and birth. We love her and are so grateful for her.
