Testimonial for Lo Dorr
Hello and congratulations future moms and dads. If you're wondering if you should hire Lo and you've made it all the way to reading her reviews, then you're one step closer to making the best decision for your birthing experience! There are plenty of testimonials from mothers, so I'm leaving this review for the fathers out there who are wondering "why does my wife need a doula?" Your wife doesn't need a doula, she needs Lo!
I can't imagine the birth of our baby without Lo's help. We had our baby at home and Lo showed up early in the morning after our call, staying for almost 24 hours straight. But her help started way before my wife went into labor. She was a resource to answer questions and give advice all the way through my wife's pregancy. Any time she had a question, Lo was just a call or a text away with valuable insight. On the day our baby was born, my wife went into labor at around 2:30 in the morning. We called Lo at 7 am and she was at the house by 9. She helped my wife through contractions with positions and suggestions for the next six hours and finally told us when it was time to call the midwife. Lo's calming presence seemed to keep my wife in a zen-like state all the way up to our baby's birth, but she also kept me grounded as well. Whenever I had questions or needed direction on how to help, she was right there and was a great resource for keeping ME calm and helpful. After the baby was born, Lo stayed late, making sure we ate and hydrated before we went to sleep with our little girl now in the world. In the days and weeks afterward, my wife would call Lo with questions about breastfeeding and other advice with our new baby and she was always instantly responsive and helpful. I've told many people that Lo was the darkhorse in our birthing experience and that I never expected her to be so helpful to our family, before, during and after the birth. She'll be a part of us forever! Hire her now and don't give it a second thought.
