I was honoured to have Adele as my doula during my home birth. Honestly, I don’t think I would have been able to do it without her.
Her support and encouragement during labour were what kept me focused and strong and reminded me of all the techniques I learned to cope with the pain. She also had the intuition to ask me: “What is holding you back?” when I started pushing which helped me to move past my fear.
She held my hand the entire labour and knew again intuitively that I needed her there without me having to say a word.
Her support and encouragement, when I initially struggled with breastfeeding, was also invaluable and kept me mentally strong.
I am very thankful that I had Adele as my doula and will recommend her to everyone who I know is pregnant!
