To say my husband was skeptical about having a doula would be an understatement. However, he supported my wished for birth, and in return I wanted a doula who would help make both of our experience what we wanted rather than what anyone else wanted. Cue, Lauren! From day one of our first virtual visit, she was asking about what we wanted and we needed, not imposing her own views on us or making us feel forced into a decision of any sort. I did decide to do an unmedicated labor, however I never felt like she was pressuring me to make this decision and I know she would fully support me if I had decided to do a medicated one. My husband and I made it clear we wanted a doula for physical support for me during the laboring process, and Lauren did exactly that. She constantly massaged me, had me moving in various positions, and provided comfort (in a very uncomfortable time) through her various interventions. I am so so grateful we had Lauren with us during this very personal and intimate experience, and she took amazing pictures of our daughter being born without us even asking. If we ever decide on baby #3, Lauren will be my first phone call! Look no further, she's amazing!
