Testimonial for Paige Davis, CD(DONA), CD(PALS)
I could write a novel about how incredible Paige is. I knew as soon as I got pregnant that I wanted her to be my doula. And while she wasn't in the actual delivery room (COVID stinks), she still went above and beyond to be present when we finally went to the hospital. Over the course of my pregnancy, Paige was very consistent to check-in on not only me but my husband as well. When we got closer to showtime, we met and created a birth plan, went over comfort measures, breastfeeding information, and so many other things I'm probably forgetting. When it came time, Paige showed up in the middle of the night and brought such a confident peace into our home. We are first time parents, so everything was new, foreign and scary. But she helped us (especially my husband) feel confident and collected and she reminded us of tips, positions, and affirmations that we really could do this.
After laboring at home for 20+ hours, we decided it was time to head to the hospital to see what was going on. We received the news that I was preeclamptic, and Paige was there (via text messaging with my husband) to encourage us and help us stay focused on what the real end-goal was. Never once did Paige make me feel invalid or unheard, but always seen and encouraged me. While my birth-plan didn't go the exact way we planned, Paige's wisdom and guidance plays a big role in what potentially saved both mine and my baby's lives.
I would, and do, recommend & support Paige 1000%. You NEED a doula. You need PAIGE as your doula. <3
