I found Afshan through the doulamatch site and I am so happy to have been able to have her a part of my first pregnancy. She was responsive whenever I texted her and shared insightful information regarding different pregnancy concerns I had. I felt once I reached out to Afshan we connected and I felt comfortable working with her. Pregnancy and delivery is such an intimate time for everyone and I believe it is super important to find the right support person and I am grateful that I found her and that she was able to be there during my labor and delivery. Afshan helped me figure out positions as I labored down and to help speed things along. She had knowledge regarding when to get iv fluids and gave me information of what she thought and recommended during different parts of my labor. If it wasn't for her I don't know how it would have gone. I felt super confident when I was in labor because of her and I felt like I was ready and not afraid ( before I was way too afraid). I whole heartedly recommend Afshan to anyone who needs a doula, she knows what she is doing and knows how to make sure you feel confident and ready to take on anything at that time.
