Testimonial for Terri Burleson

I worked with Terri for both my deliveries. Each delivery experience was unique and Terri filled needed roles in both situations. With my first baby, I really wanted to have a medication-free experience and that is why I looked for a doula. Terri was excellent and provided a lot of ideas to help me feel strong and comfortable during my delivery. Although my husband was originally skeptical of hiring a doula, after our first delivery, he said Terri was amazing and empowered him to better support me and to play a more active role in the delivery.

My second delivery was very different. The air conditioning wasn't working at the hospital and Terri happened to have a fan with her! I felt a lot of push-back from the medical team about wanting a medication-free birth, and Terri supported me, helped me to advocate for myself, and to think through each suggested intervention. The hospital was overwhelmed with women in labor and Terri provided an important role of advocating for when I needed extra medical attention.

In both cases, I can't imagine having gone through the delivery without Terri. Her follow-up meetings were also SO helpful for me to process my experience and provide that extra check-in. Texting with her leading up to and after deliveries were also so helpful. I can't recommend Terri enough. Regardless of what your birth plan is, Terri is an amazing person to have at your side as you go through labor and delivery.
