Testimonial for Heidi Duncan, CBD(CBI)
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, only 1 support person (my husband) would be allowed at the hospital during/after labor. This was my second child & during my 1st birth, I had my husband, mom, aunt, and sister all in the delivery room with me. I knew I would need the extra physical and mental support to get through another natural delivery. Doulas were allowed in addition to your one support person so I knew this was something I needed to highly consider. Best decision I could have made! I interviewed several Doulas before deciding to hire Heidi. Her dispostion, calm spirit, experience, and knowledge seemed to be the perfect match for me. One of the best things about having Heidi was having her to text when I had questions or possibe signs of labor. I felt very comfortable asking her advice and sharing what I was experiencing opposed to having to call my doctor. I knew she could talk me through those moments. I felt much comfort in knowing I would have someone to help me decide when would be the right time to go to the hospital. My husband and I both enjoyed Heidi coming to our house and showing us positions, moves, and exercises to help leading up to labor and during labor. I know my husband gained confidence after that meeting on ways to help and support me. I will without a doubt always reccommend hiring a doula if my friends/family ask but specifically Heidi Duncan! I went into labor super quick and headed to the hospital shortly after. Heidi responded right away to my first sign of labor. Although there wasnt much time between my labor starting and arriving to the hospital, Heidi was there just minutes after we arrived to hospital. She was so helpful during labor offer physical support with massage and counter pressue. She gave position/movement suggestions. Honestly, just her attendance gave me so much peace of mind. She is so knowledgable and the best cheerleader! It is so easy to get exhausted and tired during labor but she kept me going!
