Testimonial for Tatiana Ponomar
Tatiana was my birth doula in October 2022. Since it was going to be my first baby, I had a lot of fears about my upcoming labor. But during our meetings, Tatiana shared a lot of information and practical tips that made me feel more confident. Tatiana also has a very warm, caring personality which immediately put me at ease. During my labor, which was very long (about 24 hours after water breaking), Tatiana did different things to help reduce pain from contractions - we tried different positions, massage, and she used a tens unit on me. She was by my side throughout the whole time and most importantly, she provided so much emotional support that I needed, saying encouraging and comforting words that helped me a lot. I also discussed my birth plan with her and any decisions that needed to be made, and she shared her perspective and advice. Honestly, even though my labor was long, the epidural didn't work 100%, and pushing was 3 hours, Tatiana made this time fly by so fast. I'm so thankful to her for making it such a good experience and highly recommend her to anybody who is looking for a doula!
