I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with Megan who supported my wife and I in the birth of our first child. She came highly recommended from our midwife, and as soon as I met Megan, I instantly felt very at ease wth her, and very confident in her knowledge and experience.
Megan was wonderful at helping me, as the non-birthing partner, feel comfortable both with the labour and birth process as it unfolded, and feel comfortable in what I was doing to support my wife. Her sense of humour and her compassion is something that made the experience of our son's birth a beautiful moment that we will never forget. As the events unfolded, Megan was very present offering emotional and physical support to my wife, and providing gentle reassurance on what I was doing to support. Her calm presence also helped alleviate the fears I think all partners have about their spouses being in pain or experiencing medical distress during labour and delivery.
Megan was also immensely helpful as a post-partum resource, doing multiple house calls to check on us, and supporting us through the early days of feeding, sleep, and the adjustments into parenthood. We still rely on Megan for the new parent "is this normal?" questions!
I believe very strongly that the wonderful experience of my wife's pregnancy and our son's birth was in no small part due to Megan's integral role. Labour and delivery will undoubtably be lifechanging experiences for anyone, and I very much recommend Megan to help support you through this monumentous time.
