Rebekah is an amazing doula! She was extremely helpful and responsive before birth, providing my husband and I with knowledge and support that helped us to be more prepared for labor. As first time parents who were not able to attend any birth classes because of covid, this support was incredibly appreciated. I was almost a week overdue before I went into labor and starting to get a little discouraged. Rebekah’s advice, tips, and encouragement were a huge help to me during that time, and were probably the reason I was able to avoid an induction! During labor, Rebekah helped me get into different positions with a peanut ball, despite having had a very numbing epidural. This seemed to help move things along as everything moved at a very fast pace after I got the epidural and started using the peanut ball. When it was time to push, she made sure I always understood what I was supposed to do and helped me to accomplish that - she supported my back with her hand and made sure the nurses knew when I was having a contraction and needed to push. She also worked so well with the nurses, and I felt so supported by the team of people working together to help me and my baby. After the birth, she visited me several times and offered really helpful tips when I had some trouble with breastfeeding. Overall, my husband and I are so glad that we had Rebekah during this time - we can’t imagine what the experience would have been like if we had not had her as our doula! Her support before, during, and after birth was something I really needed as a first time mom, and her positive and encouraging attitude made our whole experience so happy.
