Testimonial for LeNay Graham CD(DONA), CLD Woven With Grace LLC

I am so beyond grateful that I had LeNay to guide me through the pregnancy and birthing process. When I found out I was pregnant, I was so excited and couldn’t wait to secure LeNay as my doula, however the thought of giving birth and pushing out a baby left me fearful. As I met with LeNay in person, chatted on the phone, and texted weekly with her my fear slowly shifted into anticipation! She recommended the Labor Nurse Mama birth classes that went hand in hand with her wisdom and support to shift everything in my mindset! In my 2nd trimester I started to wake up daily actually excited to give birth. When I went in for my induction I felt prepared and empowered to speak up for what was best for me! LeNay is also the best encourager, especially when I needed it most during the waiting of 41 weeks carrying this baby. When I felt discouraged by waiting, or frustrated by my body, she was there to remind me of the truths and beauty of each step of the journey!
LeNay was excellent at educated me to make decisions about my induction process, Pitocin dosage, breaking my water, position changes, pain management, and much more! I truly felt in control, prepared, and empowered each moment of my labor and delivery. The best decision I ever made in stepping into motherhood was choosing to have LeNay as my doula! I had the most incredible birth experience not because everything went the way I expected, but because I had been educated to make the best decisions for my body and my baby! I have never felt more proud and empowered to be a woman and a mama! LeNay was the biggest part of preparing me for this new transition of bringing my baby into the world!!!
