Mel was a fantastic postpartum doula! We brought our first baby home from the hospital after several days of essentially no sleep, and Mel saved us during our first two weeks home! They cared for our baby at night with so much love, allowing us to shower and sleep. Mel would gently wake me when the baby needed to eat, helped us with positioning for nursing, and brought me snacks and water during those late night nursing sessions--during which they also would talk with me about nursing, parenting, and listened while I talked about and processed my birth. While the baby slept, Mel cared for us by washing and sterilizing feeding supplies and folding baby's laundry. I don't think we could have survived those early days without Mel's support! We are so grateful to them!
