Testimonial for Lydia Robinson CD(DONA), RN, CPM, IBCLC
Our experience with Lydia was extremely beneficial for gaining knowledge about prenatal care, what to expect during a hospital birth, possible interventions, creating a birth plan, and most importantly, for her support during the birth.
The multiple online courses walked us through all the health information we needed to know for prenatal care, birthing options, and postpartum care. These courses laid the foundation for us to feel confident and informed as Lydia walked us through designing a birth plan that met our wants and needs.
Lydia was available and attentive while my wife labored at home in the middle of the night. During these hours she offered advice and exercises to foster baby moving down the birth canal and into the optimal position for birth. Lydia met us at the hospital at 3:00 AM and quickly jumped into action, requesting birthing supports from the nurse to start pushing and determine an optimal pushing position. She was extremely proactive, which was a sharp contrast to our hands-off nurse. She instructed my husband on ways to support with pushing and other comfort measures.
Ultimately, our birth went as well as it could have thanks to Lydia's guidance!
