This was my second pregnancy, I did not have a doula with my first.  What a difference second time around with a doula.  If I could redo my first labour and have Pat with me, I would.  She was born to do this.  Being one of her first clients you would of never known.  She is so knowledgeable, patient and kind.  Pat was with me every step of the way, through my pregnancy, labour and postpartum, answering every question I had, and giving me support.  During my labour from start to finish, she was there.  She made me feel so empowered.  Pat was attentive to my needs and helped me work through my transitions (drug free I might add!).  Her energy was exactly what I needed to get through the labour.  She worked well with my midwife, mom and sister who were also there for birth of my second son.  It felt as though she was another member of my family.  I highly recommend Pat as a doula!
