Testimonial for MaryBeth Nance, AdvCD (DONA), CLD (CAPPA), SBD

MaryBeth is an amazing doula & I highly recommend her!  We hired her twice.  What's great about MaryBeth is she really listens to your needs and desires, without judgement.  Whether you want an unmediated birth, an epidural, or a c-section, she's there to help you.  She's loved by the staff at Susquehanna OBGYN and Upper Chesapeake.  All the doctors and mid-wives there welcome her for your birth.  Because of the relationships she's built with both groups you won't have to worry about her butting heads with the medical staff.   For my son I wanted a hospital unmedicated birth.  She helped me achieve that, despite my son being 9.5 pounds!  She was the voice of reason and my biggest cheerleader when I wanted to give-up.  She's able to quickly assess when it's really time to give-up or it's just the tough part of labor when you think you want to give-up.  MaryBeth is the reason I was able to stay sane during the last month of my pregnancy with my identical twins.  She helped me deal with the pain and ensured I was properly communicating my quality of life issues with the doctors.  With my approval, she advocated for me to the doctors and mid-wives about various aspects of my care.  MaryBeth is VERY knowledgeable about twin births and gives you all the facts about multiples you'll be hard pressed by find elsewhere.  In the end we decided it was best for me to get an epidural for this birth; however, it wore off as I was going into transitional labor.  Without MaryBeth's guidance and calming effective, I probably would have had a c-section.  Instead I was able to have an unmedicated birth, with baby b coming out feet first breeched!  I credit her for saving me from an unnecessary c-section.  My husband also loves MaryBeth!!  She was incredibly helpful to him during both births as well.  Hire MaryBeth!  You'll be glad you did!!
