Testimonial for Renée Pizzuto
Reneé was everything I was looking for in a doula plus so much more.
Reneé was there for me from the very start- answering all my questions, calming all my fears, validating my feelings, and teaching me everything there was to know about early pregnancy all the way through postpartum. Because of Reneé, I went through my laboring and birthing experience with such confidence. I had nerves as usual, as it was my first time being pregnant- but with Reneé my nerves of fear were easily converted into nerves of excitement.
Because of Reneé, I was able to labor at home on my own for 24 hours without fear. She taught me how to read my body, how to respond to laboring symptoms and signals. I confidently knew when it was time to head over to my hospital to have my baby. She gave me the reassurance that my body was made for this, and I felt so ready and confident in my decision to turn down all pain medication and epidurals. I felt like superwoman, I could do this! Because I had the confidence to labor at home for the majority of my laboring, I was able to go to the hospital, take a quick hot shower for pain management and head over to labor and delivery where I gave birth to my beautiful, healthy daughter in just three short contractions.
During my short time at the hospital preparing for birth, Reneé accompanied me with several pain relieving techniques / exercises, a positive attitude, and 100% backed my birth plan.
I could go on forever, but to sum it up, Reneé is just incredible at what she does. I thought I educated myself already on so much, yet she taught me so much more than I could imagine. She supported not only me, but my husband as well and made him a believer! She makes thinking about the birth of future baby #2 exciting and empowering. I can't wait to have her by my side again!
