Testimonial for In Joy Birth Collective

A hospital VBAC birth with prodromal labor:

I cannot adequately put into words how grateful I was to have Heather and Alyssa as a part of my pregnancy and birth experience.

In the past, I have had trouble with prodromal labor, and my 3rd delivery was especially challenging. I heard that a doula could help with this, so I reached out to InJoy. They were professional, caring, and terrific communicators, and my husband and I felt comfortable with them right away. 

Although this was my fourth pregnancy, I still found a lot of comfort in reaching out to Heather & Alyssa with any questions or concerns. The most incredible part, however, was when my labor started.  It started at night, and my contractions were stuck in a pattern of 30 seconds long every 1-2 minutes. I was tired and discouraged, so my husband called Alyssa. She came right over, and we got to work. Alyssa got me into different positions to turn the baby, and my back labor disappeared. Then my contractions became more powerful and regular. I knew that good changes were finally happening. 

 

Then I said it was time to go to the hospital! Alyssa met us there, and she stayed with us throughout the rest of labor and delivery. She was never pushy or aggressive, and she was an incredible advocate and great comfort. It was good to see that the doctors and nurses knew Alyssa, and they had a professional rapport. Working with Heather and Alyssa was the best pregnancy decision I have ever made! They really are incredible.
