Testimonial for Jennifer Mendelson
Jennifer was invaluable to me! She helped me through my fears of a c-section when my baby was breech. Then at the birth, she assisted me through my successful natural birth. I only pushed for twenty minutes, thanks in part to her coaching.
Looking back on my experience, the most important service Jennifer provided was after I got home from the hospital. In the first days and weeks of being a new parent, there are a lot of questions - about breast feeding, newborn care, etc. My mom didn't remember a lot of details about when I was born, and I always seemed to have questions outside of doctor's hours (not to mention, not all my questions warranted a doctor). But Jennifer responded to texts around the clock with great advice. I felt like I always had a trusted expert I could turn to.
Having Jennifer as part of our birth experience, including before and after, was one of the best decisions we made. Thanks.
