Testimonial for Abigail Lyon
I was originally on the fence about getting a doula. I was planning on giving birth at a birthing center bc I was low risk. Well at 38 weeks my blood pressure climbed and I had to induce at the hospital. I labored for 4 days. It was agonizing but I am so so so glad I had my doula there to support me. My husband and I had read all the books and taken all the birth classes and we felt pretty confident but having the doula there just made me feel so much more comfortable and confident. I felt supported when I spoke up for myself and my preferences because I could talk to her about them before I had to talk to a nurse or doctor. Her experience and perspective as someone who has seen many different births and helped many different moms really made me feel like I was safe and protected that I otherwise would not have felt had I had to go to the hospital alone. Abigail in particular knew exactly what specific comforts to provide for each stage, both physical and emotional. She massaged and cheered me on and encouraged me in my decisions every step of the way. I am so glad I got a doula and I'm so grateful my doula was Abigail.
