Testimonial for Sara Krivanec, CD(DTI), CLC

My first birth with my son was traumatic, so with my second pregnancy, I knew I wanted to do things completely differently, which included having a supportive birth team and a doula I could trust and who would advocate for me. I interviewed Sara first and immediately knew she was who I was looking for. Her calm demeanor and confidence that came from her wealth of knowledge and years of experience set me at ease instantly. The comfort and evidence-based support she provided was the perfect combination.
 
I started working with Sara early in my pregnancy and whereas I previously thought the function of a doula was centered only around labor and birth, Sara and MyBirth provided so many helpful suggestions, anecdotes, and resources leading up to the birth and weeks after, from readings, to prenatal yoga and birth preparation classes, my favorite being birth story night.
 
Since my first birth was an induction, I wanted to experience going into labor on my own the second time. When I went a week past my due date and had to schedule an induction, Sara reminded me I could still have the low-intervention and unmedicated birth I hoped for. Miraculously, the day of induction I woke up to contractions and when it was time to go to the hospital, was told I had progressed enough to labor on my own without induction! Sara arrived soon after and guided me through positions that helped me progress through each stage of labor. She created the best birthing environment, encouraging me when labor was toughest, supporting my husband in his role, and advocating for my needs until I delivered my son. From Day 1, Sara worked to fully understand my trauma and not only knew my birth preferences, but helped bring them to fruition. The triumph I felt in having a completely unmedicated birth on my own terms was partly due to the support I received from Sara. I 1000% recommend her services to anyone seeking to have a positive birth experience.
