Testimonial for Shamika Matos
Shamika and I were introduced around my third trimester and our relationship immediately blossomed into a beautiful friendship. She instantly sprung into action and became a part of my village, as I recently relocated back to the NYC area with little family. From the start, she constantly kept me informed of helpful local programs, support groups and resources-- and still does! We immediately began working on my birth plan and she was persistent on me communicating my wishes with my physicians, as I had a horrible experience with our first son.
The day I went into labor, I was certain it was just Braxton-Hicks and insisted she go into work. She refused and when I realized it was indeed TIME, she met me at the hospital shortly after we arrived and stayed with us a few hours after giving birth- giving all the necessary supports. She never left my side.
I'm glad to say I've GAINED A FRIEND and if we decide to have another child, I don't see myself doing it without her. The universe was indeed aligned when we were linked. ??
