Caroline was absolutely amazing. I ended up having to be induced for my labor and once I began having bad enough contractions, I called for her to come to the hospital. Upon arriving she immediately went into action. The hip squeezes were a life savor and helped me get through contractions. I transitioned into the shower and she held the shower head spraying hot water on my back which was a godsend. Unfortunately I never got past a 4cm and after 19+ hours of labor the doctors were concerned with my babies oxygen levels and movement strongly recommending a c-section. Wanting to go undmedicated and natural this was a very tough decision for me. Caroline helped me to understand that it was the right call and to feel good about moving forward with it. She reminded me to ensure that while in the operating room to have my fiance take pictures. I'm glad she did, because I may have forgoten otherwise and those are pictures I can't get back. She then waited for me to get out of the operating room and took some pictures of us. I absolutely loved having Caroline there. She was a huge support for me, my fiance and my mother. A few weeks after my delivery, she met up with me to ensure I was doing well and had all the support that I needed. Thank you Caroline for everything you did. I strongly recommend her to anyone that is looking.
