Kristen- 1st Baby
Chrissy and Hollie were my doulas and I am so grateful to have had them by my side from the moment we decided to move forward with a doula. As a first time mom, there were so many unknowns about pregnancy, labor and delivery, and even early postpartum days and they were always there to help educate me on what to expect, my options with the Dr and hospital, and just providing tools and resources to help me feel prepared. They even helped me find a new doctor when I realized the practice I was going to would not be the right fit for me. My first birth went better than I could’ve imagined. With their support and guidance, I was able to labor at home for the majority of it which I’m sure I wouldn’t have been able to do on my own, and once at the hospital had minimal interventions and such a peaceful and intimate delivery experience with Chrissy there the whole time supporting my husband and I. Postpartum, they were available in the first week home when the baby and I had feeding troubles and offered more guidance and reassurance, which is invaluable in those early days when everything feels so sensitive and overwhelming. I can’t thank them enough and already know we’ll be reaching out again if/when I am pregnant again one day. Thanks Chrissy and Hollie and Om Mamas for making my first pregnancy such a positive and memorable experience!! ❤️
