Testimonial for Rebecca Peterson
We could not have done it without Rebecca! After 39 hours of laboring in the hospital, we had a healthy vaginal delivery that would not have happened without Rebecca. I'm confident I would have ended up with a c section if not for her support and involvement.
Rebecca was by our side every step of the way, ensuring we were comfortable, staying hydrated and fed, helping to manage contractions, changing positions, moral support, coaching my husband...the list goes on and on.
With our long labor, we had several induction interventions, and Rebecca helped us manage through it all. She made sure we had time to make decisions and helped us ask questions to be more informed where needed.
She helped keep elements of our birth plan in tact, helped baby move from sunny side up to the proper position, and helped us document the process with photos and videos. I really can't thank Rebecca enough for what she did for us during labor and delivery.
At one point, she diagnosed that my pitocin drip had stopped (blown IV) which the nurses did not identify and likely would have resulted in a c-section if we didn't catch it when she did.
In addition, during our pre-delivery and postpartum meeting, she ensured we had the right resources to be informed, prepared and supported throughout pregnancy, L&D, and postpartum periods.
She is truly amazing and was such and critical element in our labor and delivery story.
