Testimonial for Becky Rohrback CD(DONA) SBD

My husband and I were thankful to have Becky as our doula for the birth of our first child. I wanted to go as natural as possible and wanted to know my options in terms of various laboring positions and methods. My husband is quiet, but wanted to be involved and didn't know how. Getting a doula was a definite for us but we were unsure of where to start. My friend's sister had a doula and recommended her. I contacted that doula but she was unavailable the week of my due date and recommended Becky - her doula! I figured if Becky was a doula for another doula, she must be pretty good! She definitely lived up to my expectations. She was friendly and made it easy to talk about personal things. She was also extremely knowledgeable and explained the various birth plans that I found on the internet. Becky made us feel prepared going into my labor day. The birth date went smoothly and sometimes it was just Becky, my husband and I in the birthing room. It was a comfort to have her there letting me know the various things I was going through (shakes, sweats, etc.) were normal. She instructed my husband and made him feel useful. She took photos (which at first I thought was a gruesome idea, but ends up I love them to pieces!!) and I honestly never noticed her once I started pushing. She was helpful but unobtrusive. I highly recommend Becky and wish you luck in your pregnancy!
