I became a mother to a preemie during a pandemic! Hardships of Covid – 19

My water broke at almost 28 weeks it’s called PPROM(preterm premature rupture of membrane), my hospital couldn’t handle a baby under 32 weeks so I was sent to Mount Sinai hospital in Toronto. My son Xavier was born exactly one month later at almost 32 weeks They said 50% of PPROM deliver within 48 hours,…

Having Jacquie as our doula for the birth of my son was so incredibly helpful and truly made the labor and birth process less stressful and intimidating for my husband and I. We were on the fence about hiring a doula because we didnt know anyone who had done so before, but after my experience I can say I am so thankful we decided to hire Jacquie. From relaxation techniques, to massage, laboring positions, music, helping us understand all the info thrown at us in the hospital, tips and tricks to ease the pain, to helping so much during the pushing process that I was able to avoid the use of the vacuum, she was involved and helping in whatever way she could, every step of the way. I would absolutely have her as my doula at the birth of my next baby!

My birthing experience was so amazing because Jacquie was my doula. We met prior to my due date in order to discuss the details of my labour and she honoured all of my wishes. She was present for my entire labour, supporting every decision I made. My husband was more relaxed as he knew someone was by my side when he needed to leave me at any point. After my son was born, she immediately pulled out my camera and took photos and videos of us as a family for the first time. She also helped me postpartum, providing me with some care items and calling to check up on me once we got home. Jacquie’s greatest quality as a doula is her unfailing belief in your strength as a woman in labour. When I thought I was weak she made me feel strong with her encouraging words. When I made a decision, she truly believed it was the best decision I could make and I felt empowered because of it. I wouldn’t think twice about hiring her again!
