Testimonial for christiane vermeersch
Christine was amazing. She was just what my husband and I needed for the birth of our little girl, Elizabeth (who is now 1 month old). Elizabeth is our first child, and Christine was there to help us when we needed her.
When we first met Christine, we knew right away we had been blessed with the right person. She was very easy to get to know and very personable. She put both of us at ease. As the delivery date approached, she kept in contact and checked in on us to make sure our questions were answered.
Then when I was going into labor she arrived at our apartment ready to assist us. She knew techniques to help with the labor, and showed my husband where to press to ease the pain naturally. We found out when we got to the hospital that our baby had flipped (face up), as a result labor wasn't progressing as it should. When I got to the hospital I was only 1.5 centimeters dialated. Christine and my husband took turns rocking me back and forth for two hours nonstop and successfully got labor progressing. After they finished, I was 4 centimeters, and labor progressed normally from there on out. By the time I gave birth, Elizabeth was in the correct birthing position. Christine was there for us through the entire experience and did whatever she could to help out.
Her love and care made our giving birth so much better than it would have been without her. I think especially on your first birth, it is so nice to have someone with you the entire time that knows what is going on. Both my husband and I were extremely grateful for what she did for us.
After the birth, Christine visited us in the hospital and again when we got home. We didn't have any family in town when we were giving birth, and the extra support she gave was just what we needed.
I can't say enough how thankful I am for her, and I highly recommend her.
