Testimonial for Cece Peace
Cece Peace is everything you are looking for in a doula- compassionate, supportive, experienced and educated in her craft.
She helped us prep thoroughly beforehand! During her prenatal visits to our home, we practiced labor positions, went over our goals, talked about everyone’s roles, and overall made me feel much more prepared. She was available for calls and texts, answering all of my “is this normal” and “is this labor” questions! She always responded with compassion and expertise, guiding me to rest, relax, and listen to my body.
Despite our best laid plans my stubborn, sunny side up, acynclitic, 9lb 9 oz baby needed a bit of help entering the world. We gave it our best effort for almost three days. I ended up with an induction, pitocin, an epidural, and after 62 hours of labor… a cesarean delivery of our perfect baby boy. These were all things that I hadn’t wanted to be a part of my birth experience, but thanks to Cece, we had talked about all the potential outcomes and decided ahead of time how to handle them.
Rather than feel defeated or like things were out of my control, Cece helped me with each new decision and each change of course so that I felt informed and empowered. She also helped us make the most our unplanned c-section. We had our wedding music playing in the OR and Cece stood right by husband, taking pictures the whole time!
Since our little guy arrived, Cece has stayed a welcome part of our baby raising village. She checks in on us, helped with care team recommendations, and gave me feedback and support when our little guy needed a tongue tie release.
I would recommend Cece to anyone having a baby! The labor and delivery process was the most challenging and beautiful experience of my life… a doula is an invaluable asset to have walking, sometimes carrying, you through.
