We decided to hire a doula a few month before baby girl’s due date.
Jenel was wonderful. She helped us with positions, videos and exercises to get our head in the game in preparation. Baby was also breech so we spent a week working on movements to help her turn - which she did!
I was induced after having high blood pressure. Jenel helped during early labour with massages and techniques to help me relax and rest. And then when things really got going she confidently advocated for us to help me with positions that allowed me to be more comfortable and still let the nursing team monitor baby. My husband said after the fact when things got intense how grateful he was Jenel was there - she knew so many ways to support me and he never felt like she took his place. Rather that he was supported too.
All in all what likely could have ended up as a c-section was a drug free natural birth. We are so thankful Jenel was there for this amazing experience. We’ve encouraged every other pregnant couple we know to give themselves the gift of hiring Jenel.
