Testimonial for Ires Wilbanks CD(DONA)
Ires was a valuable and calming presence throughout the second half of my pregnancy as well as during labor and delivery. We had an amiable and easy relationship from the onset. Ires met with us four times prior to L&D and was always available to answer questions through email or text, which really helped forge a trusting relationship with her. I felt very at ease with her as did my husband. When the day came, she was beyond incredible because my labor lasted three days and she was by our side throughout! She was encouraging and supportive, with a calming touch that helped me through those three days of contractions. When we finally got to the birth center and were told my baby was still too high and in a posterior position, Ires knew exactly how to guide me through movements that would move my labor along and help turn my baby! In the end I had the natural birth I had hoped for and I’m so grateful to have had Ires by my side using all her tools to ensure that I did!
