A guiding voice, a strong advocate, and someone who is the definition of trusting birth. I used Melanie for my second baby (first homebirth), and I can’t imagine my memories and pictures without Mel in them.
Do you ever feel yourself being spoken to poorly by a medical provider and you hate confrontation so you just deal with it? Mel is the person that you can talk to and they will a) validate b) give evidence based guidance c) hold space for you to remember your power and make the right decision for you and your family. There were some difficult moments over this pregnancy, and never once did I feel alone or backed into a corner. I had time, and was able to take a breath thanks to Mel.
Memories that will stick with me include the simple guidance when I was about to meet my baby that I should listen to my body to guide him slowly earthside.
The best big knowledgeable sister vibes you can get.
