Caitlin stepped in when my primary doula broke her foot. We had a prenatal meeting. She came to the hospital when I started to really feel the labor and need extra support. She was with us for over 10 hours, providing support and knowledge. Additionally, she checked in several time postpartum, and came to the house for a visit.
Caitlin assisted me into various positions to help baby descend into the birth canal. This was super relevant, as I had been induced for my blood pressure, so baby wasn’t quite ready. She also helped my husband to help me with certain laboring positions. Caitlin offered essential oils, which I found very useful to help keep me calm. When I thought that the pain was going to last too long, she asked if I’d like to use a comb. As a fellow doula, I looked at her so confused. She explained it so I gave it a try. I loved that comb. It was super useful for me.
