Testimonial for Lola Katschke CD(PALS), PCD(NAPS), CLE, NCS
I could not have imagined giving birth without Lola by my side! From our initial appointment, I knew she was the doula for me. She was informative, supportive and had the personality I felt like I'd need during a very vunerable time. Our prenatal appointment helped us determine if our home was ready to welcome baby earth side, and ways to work through active labor. However, I unexpectedly had to be induced at 39 weeks and felt so scared as to what would happen to my baby and myself. We texted Lola immediately and she instantly jumped into action asking us questions for the play-by-play. When she arrived at the hospital, I was in the middle of a really tough contraction while getting my epidural placed, and she jumped into action with my husband and nurses. During labor, she worked with the L&D nurses to get me into different positions, adjust positions that weren't working, and provided words of affirmation to really help me get into a better mental space. She also did little things that made a huge impact, like packing our belongings and taking photos of us, so that we could really foucs on welcoming out little boy into the world. She helped create the positive birth eperience that I was looking for! But she didn't stop there, after birth, she checked in on us and was able to help us get breastfeeding established! If you are looking for a doula, Lola is worth her weight in gold!
