Gina E.
When I became pregnant with my first child, I had no idea about the process involved with giving birth. I am so happy that Abby was by my side, literally and figuratively, to assist and provide information to me about the cycle of pregnancy. Since each birth and labor story is unique and different, Abby tailored her services to help provide the best care to my child and me.
Through helping me develop a birth plan, she made me feel empowered as a first time mother. Abby gave me inspiring articles to read, guided me through breathing and focusing exercises, and was a listening ear when I needed a sounding board. When my due date came and passed (I delivered 10 days past my due date), Abby was there to calm my nerves. She led me through breathing, stretching, relaxing and visualization techniques, which helped me tremendously.
Once it was go time and labor started, Abby was with me in the labor and delivery room. The support and encouragement she provided allowed me to sustain my way through several hours of intense labor pains.
Her after birth resources were essential to helping me navigate my way through breastfeeding. She gave me contact information for local lactation groups and made herself available when I was struggling with breastfeeding.
I would highly recommend the use of Abyssinia Birth Services. The care, comfort, and knowledge that Abby provides are unique and essential in the birthing process.
