Our homebirth with our second child went great thanks to a wonderful birth team which included Christine as our doula. We were hesitant at first to have a doula this time around because our home is rather small, but happily, the team worked well together in our small space. I was fully complete and dilated by the time the team arrived, and Christine immediately started to gently rub me and encourage me beween contractions. Hours later, she was still at it (like my first daughter's birth, I had rather long second stage of labor), and she would back off when I needed to be alone or to catch my breath and was fully present when I needed her to be. I'm so glad we decided to have Christine as our doula! I highly recommend Christine--in addition to being hands-on with a gentle touch, she is very knowledgeable and passionate about birth and babies. She's had six children herself, and, having given birth in Belgium and here in the U.S., has a unique perspective on birthing practices (sounds like they don't rush you over there like they do in hospitals here!). Thanks again for all your help Christine!
