I am so grateful to Lucy for what she did for me. I wanted a natural unmedicated birth and that's what I had. I don't think I would have been able to get through all of it without Lucy by my side. She was like a rock, steady and calm. She gave me the strength I needed, with her words, her hands, her tone of voice. She intuitively understood my needs in the moment.
When I initially interviewed her she told me about her 6 children, her VBACs, and her twins. She breastfed all her children and is a certified lactation counselor. I thought this lady has seen everything! I had to have her as my doula. She was knowledgeable and answered all my questions.
When I was in labor, I remember asking her to rest, take a break, eat something and she decided she wasnt going to leave my side. I remember her eyes looking worn out and tired by the time I was about to deliver (many many hours later) yet she stayed right by my side for every moment.
Other than my husband, I didnt have any family by my side, but with Lucy, even though I met her in person on the day I went into labor I felt safe, protected and as if I had my mother by my side. Choose her.
