Testimonial for Jordan Cota
Hiring Jordan as my birth Doula was one of the best decisions I made. The last month of my pregnancy was tough as I got admitted into the hospital at 35 weeks. We thought the baby would come and Jordan promptly reached the hospital to help me. I got discharged and the baby came 2 weeks later. Throughout those 2 weeks, Jordan was constantly available to help and support me through the prodromal labor. She helped me prepare mentally for labor, taught me the miles circuit and prepared a birth plan with me. Before this process, i didn’t know how many different decisions I would have to make during the birth journey. She walked me through the pros and cons of each and empowered me to make decisions.
When I went back into the hospital 2 weeks later, Jordan was there promptly at the hospital. Once my bag of water was broken, the labor really picked up. I wouldn’t have been able to get through the next 4 hours if it weren’t for her. With her help, I kept trying different methods to labor in. There were times when I was hugging her and holding onto her since it was so painful. I asked for an epidural but the anesthesiologist got pulled into surgery. She gave me the strength and support to deliver the baby naturally without pain medicine. When it came to pushing, Jordan and I had worked through some ways earlier that I had wanted to try. The doctor wanted me to do something different (that wouldn’t been more convenient for him and worse for me). I was in too much pain to react and she stood up to the doctor and made sure we went with the approach that was best suited for me.
Jordan constantly looked out for my best interest and supported me through the entire prolonged 2 week labor. Till this day, my husband and I reflect and think about how tough it would’ve been if Jordan hadn’t been there to support us.
