Anne and Elijah’s Birth Testimonial
My husband and I had the pleasure of having Emily assist us at the birth of my 3rd child. my two previous births had been rough and I felt like the extra support this time around would be very helpful for my husband and myself. My daughter was a little crooked and not quite in the ideal position for childbirth a few weeks before she came out. Emily recommended some exercises to help reposition her and due to me doing the recommended exercises, she was in a great position when I gave birth to her. Due to how fast my labor was and when I arrived at the birth center, Emily ended up only being with me for about 10 minutes before my daughter was born. She was really great during the part of my labor she was present for and afterwards. She gave me some crackers and water right after birth and drove to get me and my husband some pizza afterwards. Leading up to the birth, she was very helpful and it was nice for me to have another person to share different pregnancy things with/ask her opinion on different things. When and if I have more children, I will definitely be seeking out Emily's services again. She is so kind, encouraging, caring and just a great person. -Anne and Elijah
