Testimonial for Molly Vang
Molly is wonderful! After an emergency c-section with my first child that left me with a lot of trauma and fear surrounding my second, I knew I wanted to add a doula to the team for some additional support. I especially appreciated Molly’s trauma-informed approach/background and knew she would be a valuable asset with this delivery. I desperately wanted to try for a VBAC and she was fully supportive of that and tailored the prenatal visits to help my husband and I prepare, as well as offer space and conversation to more fully process my first experience. As complications began to pop up towards the end of my pregnancy (at least as far as my doctor was concerned) she was always great about checking in and pointing me to resources to help me have more informed conversations with my doctor. Ultimately, I ended up having a c-section, which is not at all what I had wanted, but she was still there for me, both at the delivery and also in helping me to process and grieve the unexpected change of plans. She believed in me even when I had doubts and helped me to feel more in control of things this time around and better advocate for myself. Although it was far from the birth experience I had hoped/worked for, it was certainly a more positive experience than my first. From prenatal to postpartum, Molly was great the whole time and I greatly appreciate having had her on this journey with me and my family!
