I was 36 weeks into my second pregnancy when my fears of a very long labor (48 hrs) from my first flashed before my eyes. As much as everyone said second babies tend to deliver faster , I knew my pain tolerance ,my body and decided to take the help of a doula to cope with delivery. When I first searched Rachel and found her review/ recommendation very good ,I was certain she might have been overbooked. thankfully she was kind enough to accept and we hit it off immediately. We fast tracked a few sessions to understand nuances and ways to work with. Her gentle and calm sense drives the stress out through the door ! My labor was less than 12 hours and she eased me with multiple pain management techniques. Towards the end , she was a great partner working with the nurse on duty to deliver my boy which the doctor was convinced to end up in cesearean birth. I cannot thank her enough for being a part of my child birth plan and being with me every stage of labor. She s a wealth of knowledge to hit you with support and materials about anything you need to know post partum as well. I am proud that my son shares his bday with such a wonderful human being !
