Testimonial for Paige Davis, CD(DONA), CD(PALS)
I was lead to Paige around 32 weeks pregnant after two disappointing and discouraging trips to the OB emergency room. I had experienced extremely low blood pressure throughout pregnancy and reached the point of fainting frequently, so my personal OB instructed me to go to the ER anytime it happened during later term. I left both times feeling unheard and almost inferior, invalidated. For the first time in my pregnancy, I was nervous for labor. I didn't want to feel pressured or bullied, so I turned to Google. I didn't know what to expect from a doula. Hollywood had me imagining Melissa McCarthy's character from The Back-up Plan. I just knew I wanted to feel heard and supported. I also wanted my baby here safely, whether that meant all natural, medicated, or by c-section, and I didn't want to feel judged in my decisions or swayed one direction. It only took one meeting, one conversation. Paige was there for both of us every step of way, and I am confident my experience would have been far different without her involved. I felt so strong, empowered, and confident in every step and decision. She made sure I felt comfortable in all aspects and actually somewhat prepared! Looking back on my experience, I can honestly say I am so proud of myself and my body, and I most certainly have Paige to thank. I also have another friend for life! Our only regret was not finding her sooner.
