I was introduced to Miriam as a replacement option for my primary Doula, as she was going on vacation. I confess that my first thought was a strong fear about what delivery day would probably be like. But Miriam created a welcoming and caring approach that made me super comfortable and confident when my little Oliver was born. She was always very attentive and always following up on every little pain or discomfort I had. On the day of delivery, she was essential in minimizing the pain of contractions and strengthened me to achieve good dilation progress. However, unfortunately, due to my baby's heartbeat, I had to resort to a C-section. Postpartum, she was also very careful and very precise in helping with breastfeeding. I had a somewhat turbulent start to breastfeeding, mainly because my baby lost a lot of weight at the beginning, but we managed to recover the lost percentage and to this day Oliver breastfeeds exclusively.
