We were so glad to have Justine and Ale on our team from Midwest Doulas! Even as a nurse with experience in the field, it was so helpful to have someone to talk to throughout the pregnancy and weigh pros/cons of different decisions, especially since doctor appointments are so brief. In addition to the birth support, the program was comprehensive including pre and post birth meetings, birth education classes with partner, CPR, and lacation classes, too.
At first my husband didn't quiet understand what a doula was, or why we needed one, but he now sings Justine's praises, like everyone else! I ended up having sudden unexpected complication--all good now, but I honestly don't know how I would be coping had Justine not been there. My medical team was great in their response, but having someone completely dedicated to me while it was all happening--advocating, showing unwavering, genuine investment in my wellbeing, was priceless. And her endurance is unmatched! Highly recommend--she has seen it all and is highly skilled. Thank you!
