Testimonial for Carolyn Ericson
I’m incredibly happy we used District Doulas. Throughout the entire process—pregnancy, labor and learning how to take care of our little guy—they offered solid support and advice and gave me a lot of peace of mind. They have been very quick to respond to any questions from when the doctor scared me with a consultation on shoulder dystopia to recommendations for prenatal massages in the area.
Carolyn was an important part of our birth experience. First and foremost as nurses and doctors come in and out, it was nice to have someone by our side throughout the experience. During my labor, there was a part where the baby wasn’t isn’t a great position and not responding well to the contractions. I think the nurses would have moved me side to side continuously, but Carolyn guided me through a series and then a variety of different positions. It was both physically and mentally helpful. The baby ended up in a great position for delivery, and I only pushed for 17 minutes! There were many ups and downs during my labor experience, and Carolyn was thoughtful to understand when I needed more support and when I just needed a moment to close my eyes and focus internally. We’ve also appreciated the postnatal visit with her. We hit her up with a long list of new parent questions! And it’s comforting to know they’re here for our family as new questions pop up.
