We've now worked with Dawn twice and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful! She is always there to answer any questions we had and if she didn't know the answer, she would help guide you to figure it out. For my first pregnancy, my labor went very quickly, so working with Dawn again, it was great to know she already knew me, my situation and my body. This was very helpful because we talked about things that could happen with my second- faster labor, home birth, no pushing, etc. There of course was no guarentee my second labor would go exactly as predicted, but it was great to meet with Dawn and go through possible scenarios so that we were prepared for anything. We also had 4 years in between births, so it was really nice that she didn't assume we "knew it all" already. She still was prepared to talk about things we already experienced, to give a refresher but was always fine moving quickly or skipping a subject if we felt comfortable with it already. She also was great about talking through and giving us ideas on what it would be like to have two kids so that we could mentally prepare as well as prepare our first-born and house for having a second child. Every pregnancy and childbirth experience is different, and thats why I would absolutely have Dawn with me during each preganacny, no matter how many I might have. I would absolutely recommend Dawn and her services to my friends, family and anyone reading this (in fact, I already have). Thank you so much again, Dawn!
