Testimonial for Lauralee Lightwood-Mater, CD(DONA)
When I found out that I was expecting my third child, I knew immediately that I would want a VBA2C. I also knew that I would need a Doula on my team to help achieve this goal. The first time I spoke with Lauralee I knew immediately that I wanted her on my team. She was warm, unassuming, knowledgeable and supportive right off the bat. We met once in person, had a couple zoom sessions that included my husband, a few conversations and exchanged tons of texts. She demonstrated exercises, provided manuals and questionnaires to review and had lots of ways interact with us and address out specific situation. Due to a few important factors, I decided to have another C-section. Lauralee was a huge part of that decision making process helping to address my questions, concerns and fears each time they came up. She supported my husband during the process, gave us questions to consider for ourselves and to pose to our providers, and offered support throughout the entire process. I am so happy that I chose to work with Lauralee as she is a big part of the reason that I am comfortable with my decision to have a repeat C-section. It has been a very redeeming experience.
