As a first time mom who had been a nanny for years, I was nervous because I knew how to do everything except for give birth and breastfeed. I read all the books, followed all the accounts, and took all the classes but I wanted to have an expert by my side to coach me through my birth. I had known Mary for a long time and knew from her yoga sessions that she was the perfect calming presence. My birth was smooth and surprisingly fast. She kept me focused, centered, and calm. While I was in the zone of bringing my baby into the world she was my voice. She coached my husband with putting pressure on my hips, moving me into different positions, and keeping the feel good hormones flowing. Everything she did made my birth feel so easy. After the baby was born she helped me understand the importance of healing through food, stretches, and rest. I honestly can't wait to have more babies with Mary's help!
