Testimonial for Hunter Moore, CD, CLC, CBE
Hunter was much more than a birth coach. I was pregnant with twins in my first pregnancy and knew that we could use all the help we could get. We wanted to be prepared physically and emotionally given the childbirth experiences of many friends and family members. When I asked my friends and co-workers, multiple people had worked with Hunter and recommended her highly. In our experience, she was always responsive, timely, friendly and supportive.
We hoped for a vaginal delivery, but the twins had other plans, Both remained breech which meant a C-section was required. This honestly made me wonder if it was worth paying for a doula... it was! A C-section wasn't what I wanted, but Hunter helped us emotionally accept this and see the benefits. She was still there with us at the hospital, and helped coach us through the expectations of being in the operating room and post-operative recovery. Her presence felt like having another friend or family member with us. She even got some amazing photos for us!
Hunter's value became even more apparent after delivery. Her lactation knowledge was critically helpful when the kids struggled with weight gain and we were all thrown into a demanding triple feeding regimen for three weeks. During our post-partum visit, she came to the house and coached us through feeding expectations, bottle/nipple types, provided additional resources and checked in on our emotional and physical well being. There were a few nuggets of information she shared that individually saved our sanity and alone would have been worth the price of her services. My friends and I joke that Hunter will be the first phone call we make if and when any of us get pregnant again.
