My name is Ayala and Polly was my doula with my third baby.
knowing my previous experiences I knew I wanted to give birth naturally in a supportive environment and I also knew it's going to be very hard for me to stick to my plan. I shared my concerns with Polly and she took into her heart.
Polly gave me tips and exercises to do in the last two months of pregnancy and was following up making sure I'm exercising and feeling well the all time.
when the time came ( at 2:30 am) Polly showed up smiling and come, and ready to deliver my baby. She was very supportive, making sure I'm following the type of delivery I asked for, making sure to help me speed the process and getting my body and the baby ready for the delivery.
she was sensitive to my feelings and pain, massaging, helping me go through every step in the best way possible.
Even when I was ready to give up on the type of delivery I wanted Polly didn't give up on me. Gently but surely she gave me strength to go through every step at a time. I ended up delivering naturally after 3.5 hours (amazingly quick for me).
im so happy I chose Polly to be my doula. I'm sure it would be extremely different and so much harder without her!
