When I first met Britney one of the first things I noticed was how confident and compassionate she is. She was consistantly providing me resources for every question and complaint about pregnancy. She was so patient listening to my anxieties and working with her has improved my ability to ask for what I deserve. Having someone that I could get resources from as well as reassurance from was huge especially when my OBGYN always seemed so rushed to get through our appointments. Together with my husband, Britney helped us come up with a plan for every scenario and talking through the options I didn't even want to think about. While I didn't have a pregnancy filled with complications she put my mind at ease, I wasn't expecting so much before I went into delivery.
However, delivery is when I really saw the benefits to hiring her. Britney spent 2 days with us in the hospital while I was in labor. I didn't want an epidural due to my fear of needles, so she was there with me every step of the way. Her words of encouragement made me feel powerful. Ultimately, I ended up having a c-section, I was terrified. Not only was I getting a needle in my spine but I was also going to be awake through a major surgery. I had been through days of labor but I felt I like I had failed. She consistantly reminded me all that I had done so much to get to this point. I honestly believe that without her being in the OR with us I would not have been able to sit still I was shaking so much. With Britney by my side cheering me on and advocating on my behalf I made it through one of the most intense experiences of my life. I will recommend her to anyone, she really impacted my life and I will be forever grateful that she was part of my birth experience.
Her care did not stop there, she also checked up on me several times postpartum and provided me with the resources I needed to handle the intense postpartum emotions. Anyone would be fortunate to have her in their corner.
