Testimonial for Stacey Tweedle CD/PCD (DONA) Postpartum Doula
At first, I was not sure if we should bother hiring a doula, but as it was our first baby/birth experience, my fiancé and I decided that having extra help and a larger support team could not hurt. I am very glad we did!
We hired Stacey after meeting her at a "meet your doula" event hosted here in Calgary. Upon our first meeting, I knew that she was the gal for us. She is incredibly knowledgeable, very friendly/ easy to get along with, respected our birth plan and wishes completely and without any judgement/pressure to change anything and was very adamant that she would advocate for us if need be.
With her help, we had a successful unmedicated home birth. She was there from the second I went into active labour, and was a great support for my partner as he navigated supporting me during my contractions. She stepped in when needed to help with positioning, grabbing whatever we needed/I requested, reminding me to relax/ breathe when I tensed up and provided me with lots of reassurance when we got to the pushing stage (which was by far the most challenging for me).
Stacey also worked super well with my midwives, and the whole support team were amazing chearleeders in my times of doubt and struggle.
Highly recommend!!
