Testimonial for Heather Lee CD (DONA)
We highly recommend Heather as your birth doula! My husband and I did not have a doula when our first daughter was born, and we knew we wanted one for our son's birth. Little did we know how significant having Heather with us would be! My second birth was much harder and longer, and because of Heather and my husband's team effort during very unexpected back labor, I was able to keep going. She was with me during every stage of labor, including at our home and at the birth center and gave my husband the opportunity to keep me hydrated, fed and helping me mentally and emotionally, while she provided the physical support. During the very intense parts of labor when I wanted to give up and felt defeated, she continued to remind me that I was one contraction closer to meeting my son. She also helped me breath through the pushing so that my husband could be on the other end to catch our son!
Heather not only provided the support for the big event, but also during my pregnancy. She attended a prenatal appointment with me where she got to know my midwife and see the birthing suite. Heather also came to our home twice and practiced with us comfort measures for each stage of labor. She took time to listen to what was important to us as we thought about my birth experience, and how she could come alongside us. She also has continued to check in with me almost daily to see how postpardum recovery is and how our son is doing.
We are so grateful for the support we received from Heather. She respects and values what is important to you through your pregnancy and birth, and will be an amazing support person during a life event you will always have close to your heart.
