Testimonial for Gina Johnson
Having Gina as my doula for my second was an incredibly empowering experience. My first was a complex (necessary) medicated hospital birth, and I really wanted to have a different experience with my second, and with Gina's help I was able to! My second was a relatively fast home birth. Gina arrived before my midwives and helped me manage my contractions while my partner put our toddler to bed. Gina helped me with hip pressure during painful contractions, breath reminders, small sips of water, etc. She also helped me run a bath, stay focused and feel in control. I never felt alone or scared during my birth because I knew she was there for me the entire time. Once the midwife team arrived they were busy setting up, and my partner was still busy with our toddler, so Gina once again helped me move through the labour when I otherwise would have been on my own. My partner was able to join my birth right before I started to push. After the birth Gina also took beautiful photos of me and my partner holding my daughter just seconds after she was born, which I will treasure forever. Once I was snuggling my baby, gina brought me a much needed snack. Gina helped me realize the birth I had wanted with my first, and I truly believe she was instrumental in creating a positive, empowering birth experience.
