Testimonial for In Harmony Birth: Keli Fortman, HCHI, HCHD, DONA
Having Cali as part of our support team during my birth was such a wonderful experience. This is our first child, and my husband and I felt so much more confident and comfortable during labor knowing that Cali was with us. Throughout my labor Cali offered suggestions for different positions and comfort measures, helped me stay focused on the moment, and provided me with context for what I was feeling and how things may progress as we moved closer to pushing. My plan was for an unmedicated birth, and Cali was able to walk the fine line of encouraging me to reach that goal and supporting me when I decided to get an epidural. She was reassuring and patient even as my labor lasted all night. She even took amazing pictures of the moment my son was born, which is something my husband and I will cherish forever!
Even though Keli wasn't my doula, she was a constant source of support and encouragement during my pregnancy. Keli shared a lot of her personal experience with me, and provided great resources when I was looking for support to help flip my baby. Keli continued to check in with me throughout my pregnancy and postpartum period.
It was a pleasure working with Keli and her team during my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum period.
