I didn’t become concerned with having a doula until about halfway through my pregnancy. When I approached my partner Josh about having a doula present at the birth of our son he was apprehensive. After some convincing, he was open to the idea, and that’s when I searched around and found Lauren. After our initial consultation, I left the conversation with the feeling that I needed her at my sons birth. There was something in my heart that knew Lauren’s presence and knowledge would play a huge role in bringing my baby earth-side and I couldn’t have been more right. She went above and beyond for our little family before, during, and after the arrival of our son. Her knowledge, warmth, and guidance was unforgettable. Even when I decided to change my birth plan during labor, Lauren was able to help me advocate for myself and my baby. At the end of our labor and after Lauren had left, my partner Josh looked at me and said, ‘Lauren is an angel’. Because of Lauren, I look back on the birth of my son and it was everything I wanted. Peaceful, joyful and full of love. I cannot thank her enough.
