Testimonial for Barb Davis
My doula, Barbara is a friend of the family that I decided last minute to use during our labor. Before going to the hospital I was apprehensive about doula practices. I believed it was a little silly to have a bed side cheerleader and that you could either handle birth or you couldn't. I must say my opinion has done a complete 180. From the beginning, it was nothing but relaxed positivity. It didn't feel forced, awkward or silly. Her demeanor was genuine and only made me feel supported and positive. I had just had my water broken at 4 cm and Barbara suggested I try the birth ball to assist with the contractions. O Thank God she did! I truly believe that made the difference in my ability to handle the intense contractions that come with induction. Beyond being able to move with the contractions, Barbara was contastantly rubbing my back and providing me with a heat pack to help keep my loose. It was amazing!!! I credit my natural delivery 100% to Barb! I now make sure to tell everyone that not only are doulas amazing but that if you want a positive birthing experience Barb is the only choice you have!
