My spouse and I are so so happy we had Melanie through our pregnancy and birth. She offered support and knowledge when we had questions throughout the pregnancy. Then offered calmness and steadiness throughout labor and birth that helped create an incredible birth experience and made me feel safe and empowered. After two years of infertility and a miscarriage, I had grown a distrust of my body and was nervous for birth. I had decided I wanted to try for an unmedicated birth. Melanie worked with me and my spouse through labor, especially when my water broke while going into our 39 week appointment and later when I started to hit a wall at 9 centimeters. Her guidance helped me move through the wall and bring our baby into the world! Throughout she would offer suggestions, but ultimately allowed me to listen to my body and follow its cues. I am so proud of my birth experience. Both my spouse and I are so grateful for her and don't think we would have had the same experience without her!
