Testimonial for Nicole Bengtson CD(DONA),certified BRM® pro,HypnoBirthing
If you're on the fence about hiring a Doula, then this is the review telling you to do it!
For us, my husband and I were well aware that words of encouragement were not his strong suit and that was the main reason for hiring a Doula and unbeknownst to me there were so many other great benefits of hiring Nicole. The education before birth and just the ability to ask questions was so helpful. My husband and I both agree that having a Doula (or two in my case) was one of the best decisions that we made. As cliché as it sounds, I feel like I barely remember my labor/birth a mere seven months later but from what I do recall, it was such a blessing to have women there helping me with encouraging words, counter pressure, back rubs, encouraging me to stretch/walk the stairs to continue labor progression & cold washcloths on my neck while pushing. Also, the support immediately after birth with breast-feeding as well as months later I felt like I could call or text with any question or concern. I also felt like Nicole genuinely cared about me, the baby, our breast-feeding journey, as well as my healing physically and emotionally with processing the birth. I will forever encourage women to hire a Doula - even if you don't think you need one because I guarantee you will get at least one positive benefit from it, if not several. I 100% will be using Nicole for my next pregnancy/birth whenever that is! (:
