Having Michaela as my doula made my first time giving birth absolutely perfect. I could not imagine going through labor without her help and support. I knew that I wanted to push laying on my side and I could tell that the nurse was not in favor of that position and wanted me to push on my back. Michaela advocated for me and I was able to deliver on my side! I also had an epidural for my labor and I was worried that it would limit my options for labor positions. She helped me with getting into different side lying positions with a peanut ball to still help my labor progress. She was a huge help getting through my birth. She also helped encourage me when it came time for pushing and that encouragement gave me the strength to keep going when I was getting tired. During postpartum, she helped with all of my questions and helped me a lot with my feelings I was dealing with. She brought soup over and made visits to check in on us which was a huge help. During my pregnancy, she was also a huge help. She was always a text, email, or call away when I had questions. She provided me with lots of helpful resources when I had questions. If I ever have another baby down the road, I plan on having her as my doula again because of how amazing she was.
