Where do I even begin? Dasha is truly a gift from god and I am so thankful I had her along this amazing birth journey! She is forever family! This was my 3rd birth but my first at home VBAC and what an extraordinary experience it was. The last couple weeks of pregnancy were mentally so hard and Dasha was there to support me whether it be FaceTime, call, coffee dates, walks, she really helped me get through. At 40 weeks I had consistent contractions and was VERY dilated and Dasha came over that evening to get ready for babygirl to come, a few hours later everything completely stopped. I felt so discouraged but Dasha assured me that babygirl and God and my body will let me know when it's time. An exact week later, I called her early in the morning with consistent contractions but I knew this was different. She came right over and my husband and I were So happy to see her and know she was there and babygirl was coming. With every contraction getting stronger, Dasha was right there supporting and comforting me and truly could not have made it without her. My husband was so beyond moved by her and could see the love and spirit beaming out of her supporting my every need and move. 6 hours from the time I called Dasha to giving birth and having my natural VBAC- it was the fastest/longest yet most awarding day of our entire life! I can't imagine having a baby any other way and couldn't imagine anyone else by my side encouraging me the entire way! Dasha, we love you so much and are so eternally grateful you are apart of our story and our baby girl's story! ??????
