Sarah helped make us feel very calm and safe throughout my pregnancy and birth. During pregnancy, Sarah met with us at home twice to help plan our birth preferences and understand what to expect. Being able to text or call her anytime with questions or concerns was super helpful too (I was anxious during pregnancy and was grateful to be able to text her rather than call the Dr's office for every question/concern).
I went into labor early at 37 weeks, and Sarah was invaluable--we were in touch with her throughout early labor, and she helped us feel calm and confident about our plan. When I got to active labor in the hospital, Sarah had a variety of coping techniques for pain that I tried. One of the things I am most grateful for about Sarah is her knowledge of evidence based birth practices--she helped us navigate some tough choices that came up in our birth (she's also very non-judgemental!). When it was time to push, Sarah coached me through everything.
overall, Sarah was a significant part of making our birth experience about as smooth as it could have been. I would highly recommend her for those seeking a knowledgeable, calm guide and advocate through pregnancy and birth.
