We hired Deb as both a labor and a postpartum doula and I am so happy that we had her!! She helped me as I labored at home and came to the hospital after I was checked in. She helped keep me calm and walked me through breathing and other exercises to keep my labor progressing. My husband tried to assist, but having Deb there made our labor experience so much calmer than if we were doing it with just our nurse. Our labor nurses kept changing (I think we were mid shift change) and coming in and asking me the same questions. I couldn't answer as it seemed like I was always mid-contraction, so Deb stepped in as my liaison to answer their questions at my request. Having her at our labor helped transition to postpartum care seemlessly. Deb stayed with our family for about 9 months postpartum. She did everything from overnights shifts, daytime shifts, to a weekend shift alone with our daughter. Deb did everything related to baby care and additional tasks like cleaning and food prep. I had postpartum depression/anxiety and knowing our daughter was safe and loved when she was with Deb helped me tremendously. I hope we can hire her for our next labor and postpartum experience!
