I was a very nervous first time mom. Even though I knew the basics of what was going to happen, I still really wanted a doula and I'm so glad I found Becky! She was such a wonderful resource throughout my whole pregnancy. I was very prepared for labor and understood at length the medical terms my doctor and nurses were using when it was my time. With Becky's guidance, I was able to stay calm and make educated choices that were best for myself and my baby. Had I not had Becky as my doula, my birth experience would not have gone the same way and I most likely would have had an unnecessary emergency c section. Instead I was able to really advocate for myself and make informed decisions and ask questions to the medical team. Since it was during Covid I was only allowed two people in the room with me so I brought my husband and my mom but Becky was on speed dial! And I used all of her tips and tricks to help get me through. After being induced, I labored and while it took a while as it sometimes does for first time moms, I knew as much as I could in terms of what to expect because of Becky and therefore what I could do to help myself get through it to meet my baby. She reviewed plans A-Z during our one on one education sessions. After I gave birth, she was also very kind to check on me and do a follow up visit. She provided me with countless resources, including people with businesses in the community nearby such as massage therapists, lactation consultants, pelvic floor therapists, pediatrician recommendations, etc. this helped me tremendously as a new mom. If I ever have another baby, I'll definitely be calling Becky to be there for me as my doula!
