Diana was my doula for my August 2023 baby, my second son. I chose to have an unassisted birth with him, or what some people call a free birth, at my home with him. I trusted that Diana would respect my decisions and support me, not pushing me towards anything I wasn't comfortable with or causing me to doubt myself. During my pregnancy, I felt as if this baby was not bering celebrated. Diana went out of her way to make me feel excited for his arrival and celebrated this pregnancy with me. She was there at every turn if I needed her. My birth could not have been better. Diana was absolutely the perfect support for my birth. She was a calming, reassuring presence. She did not speak any sort of doubt or hesitancy into my space, and I believe both her and my husband protected my space and mindset at different points in the labor from other input of family that I had there for the birth. I feel like she went above and beyond anything I needed, and when she left I felt positively blissful, tucked into my bed comfortably with my newest baby. I appreciated her support in so many areas during pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum- as well as her insights about preparing for a home birth in general and parenting, adding a new baby to our mix. We loved Diana being there and my husband felt so at ease knowing she was there and could support me and keep me comfortable.
