Testimonial for LeNay Graham CD(DONA), CLD Woven With Grace LLC

I had met Lenay previously to using her as my doula, at the time she was training to become one little did I know that I would eventually be using her as my support for my own birth. I truly believe that people are put in your life for a reason, when I met Lenay we immediately connected. She has an auora about her that makes you want to be around her, she is so calm and caring. When I became pregnant I knew right away that I wanted her to guide me through this pregnancy. I have two older children and never had a doula, I wanted to have a natural childbirth this time and new I needed to have support. She helpede find a good midwife because I didn't really know who to go with since my OB retired, I'm so glad I went with a midwife instead! Lenay taught me so many things about our bodies in order to have a smooth delivery, so many things I had no clue about. At one point late in my pregnancy my baby went transverse and I was told I should get an EVC, I called Lenay right away and she told me exactly what I should do and helped keep me calm. We were able to flip the baby naturally just over the weekend. When I went into labor at 40 weeks and 1 day, I called Lenay and we stayed in contact until I really felt that I couldn't take it anymore, she was at the hospital as soon as my husband and I were. From that moment she was my guiding light, helping me through, comforting me just showing me absolute love and care. So many times in my head I wanted an epidural but her guidance and care helped me through one of the most extreme experiences of my life. I know that I couldn't have done this without her and I will never ever forget how she supported me. As a woman having her and other women surrounding me, comforting me and cheering me on through my birth was one of the greatest experiences of my life and I hope for any woman to be able to experience that during their birth as well. I would recommend Lenay to anyone and everyone that is pregnant she truly is amazing.
