FOR THE GUYS! If you are on the fence about making the financial commitment to getting Brandi for your woman’s upcoming delivery, let me tell you that it is worth every single penny! I have been through two deliveries with my wife, the first one without a doula, the second one with Brandi. If you have been through labor with your woman before without a doula, then you know how bad it is for your woman. You also know how bad it feels to not be able to help your woman in labor because you just don’t know how. And even if you did, your woman doesn’t wanna listen to you since are indeed a man! If you haven’t been through labor with your woman, buckle up, because it is a rough ride! And I promise you this, the baby doesn’t care if it is 3:00 AM and you have work the next day, it is coming! My wife woke me up around 1:00AM or so and said our little boy was on the way. By 2:00 AM, Brandi was there in our home helping my wife through contractions. She worked magic that only a woman with heavy amounts of experience can execute. And she did it with a calm and peaceful presence and a professional level of expertise. Not only does Brandi help your woman through labor, she helps you by taking care of your woman so you can load up the truck! Next thing I knew, we were driving down Highway 49 headed to the hospital. We pulled up to the ER entrance at 3:00 AM. I unloaded my wife, the ER nurse grabbed a wheelchair, and Brandi rushed in and helped escort my wife up to labor and delivery. That gave me a chance to go park the truck and grab the bags since I knew my wife was in good hands. Brandi continued to guide my wife through labor once we were in the delivery room, calming her down in ways only a doula could. By 5:40 AM, our little boy way delivered! In summary, not getting Brandi would be foolish. If you are lucky enough to get a chance to hire her for your woman’s delivery, you will forever be glad you did. And your woman will be more grateful than words can express! Good luck and enjoy the ride, gentleman! P.S. Make sure to get her placenta encapsulated! And then nicely remind her to take a few capsules whenever she isn’t feeling herself postpartum!

Throughout my pregnancy Brandi answered every question I had, and when she wasn’t sure she made sure to find out. Brandi encouraged me when I was impatient with all of the prodromal labor. Brandi did her best to keep me calm and centered once we got to the hospital even though I was ready for my epidural. She helped manage my pain with counter pressure the best she could, and I had no idea how much I needed that! She stayed by our side the entire time and gave me a sense of peace that my husband couldn’t provide me in that situation. My goal for this delivery was ultimately to have a better experience than I did with my first. I truly believe that I achieved my goal because of Brandi and her support!

Brandi was my doula while pregnant and for the birth of my son. She was responsive to my anxious questions, provided research to help answer any questions, and definitely showed up for his birth by staying with me a full 12 hours through labor and delivery. My planned hospital birth turned home birth was made safer because of her presence. She is a wonderful human with Christian beliefs that are affirming, loving, and supportive.
