Testimonial for Julie Palmisano
Lochlan's birth was amazing, but coming home was very overwhelming for me. I thought I could just do it all the night that we came home, but I couldn't. The mom guilt hit me hard and I wished I had stayed in the hospital an extra night, but I missed my daughter. I was encouraged by my birth doula to call Julie. She came over that night and stayed for as long as I needed. Some of my favorite memories with my new baby were those times when Julie was over, helping and just sitting with me while I nursed him. You don't realize how much you need that company and hand, from a fellow mother, until you have it. Julie really helped me ease into the transition of being a new mom again. During her initial visit I cried, laughed, ate and slept while she was over. She made me feel comforted. I really appreciated all of her help during those precious weeks after my baby was born. I felt nourished, supported, and loved. She is an amazing support that will help in whatever way you need. I would and have highly recommended Julie.
I'd like to add how Julie has been such a support in my life, from the random texts she receives from me to the encouraging messages I get back from her. My mom passed away after having my first and I struggled (and still do sometimes) and I am so thankful to have found some strong experienced mommas, like Julie, to call up when I need some words of wisdom.
