Holistic Birth NWI

Blythe was my doula for my daughters birth. She was AMAZING! I made the awful mistake of not having a doula for my first birth and very much regretted it after things didnt go well. I hired Blythe for my second birth and it was everything Id ever hoped for! I will definitely be hiring her again for my future births!

Ray and I debated about getting a doula pretty much my entire pregnancy. We didnt commit until the end (which I dont recommend lol), because of covid/hospital rules about support people and other uncertainties Was it going to be worth the investment? Would we really need the guidance? Would the hospital allow a doula service? The answer: YES! Having an experienced and knowledgeable doula was a game changer and gave me confidence I didnt know I needed. It also allowed Ray to feel that I was in good hands while I pushed through hours of contractions. We had a few bumps in the road, with another momma going into the labor at the same time as me, but she was able to provide us with another amazing doula while she finished her duties. My birth experience was excellent, 10/10!

Initially I wasn't sure if a doula was necessary. If you're reading this and you're on the fence, call Blythe and set up an interview! I only regret that I didn't contact her earlier in my pregnancy While I was pregnant she really did a lot to help me feel prepared and less anxious. She helped me think about what I wanted my labor to look like and helped me create a birth plan. We went over a lot of topics that I would have never thought about. Being able to research & think about these things ahead of time and make an informed decision really helped me feel better going into labor. She also recommended stretches and vitamins which helped prepare my body for labor. During labor she was so supportive and helped coach my husband every step of the way. By having her support and knowledge I was able to have the labor I wanted. Honestly I don't know how anyone goes through labor without a doula My pregnancy and labor would not have been nearly as successful without her. She is professional but also very easy going & comfortable to be around. I can't say enough good things about her, I would 100% recommend her to everyone

Blythe is fantastic at what she does. We hired her in my last trimester and are SO thankful we did. Even at the last minute, she took so much time with us helping to create our birth plan, answering any questions we had, and is such a wealth of knowledge. She truly cares and wants you to have a positive birth experience. She helped prepare both my husband and I for labor and we couldnt have done it without her. If youre looking for a trusted doula, look no further - Blythe is truly the best.

Hiring a doula, specifically Blythe, was the best decision I made! I knew nothing about pregnancy or what to expect with labor. I was extremely nervous and anxious and fearful. Mostly fear of the unknown. While pregnant, I learned more about doctors, midwives and doulas (not knowing the difference at all!). At 30 weeks pregnant I decided to switch to a midwife and hire a doula!! It was a scary decision being so far along, but it was the best decision I could have made. After searching for doulas in my area and interviewing a few over zoom, I knew immediately when our call ended that Blythe was the one. She seemed to get exactly what I was looking for. The greatest part of having Blythe now a part of my team was alleviating all of my stress and anxiety. Even after just one meeting, I felt so much better already, now turning into excitement. My husband was also more comfortable and ready for what was to come. We talked about our expectations and wants and what we didnt want. Blythes objective was to give us our dream birth experience. Finally the day came (a week past due!) and Blythe came over at 5am, thinking we would be heading to the hospital in a few hours. 12 hours later (and many positions and techniques later!) we decided to all take a break and get some rest. During this rest is when i decided to head to hospital and called Blythe to meet me there. I was admitted, spent some time in the tub (highly recommend!) and the following morning it was finally time to push! During labor, having both Blythe and my husband there was perfect. They each had their roles and we had a wonderful experience. Blythes constant encouragement and motivation was exactly what I needed and she knew exactly what to say to get me through that moment. If you are debating about hiring a doula, do it 100%. And dont hire just anyone, hire Blythe! She will make sure you have a wonderful experience exactly as you want it.
