My birth didn’t start as planned, I had to go in for high blood pressure and called Jamie as they were letting me know they were inducing me. She was an awesome resource as I went through each decision, she was a sounding board and a wealth of knowledge on what each decision was and what my options were. Her direction through my midwife’s options allowed me to have the most natural induction possible, and kickstarted my labor in a way that enabled me to carry on with a natural birth. When she came to the hospital room I felt a deep relief knowing she was there to help me as things progressed, but the most impressive thing for me was how her knowledge and gentle spirit put the nurses and midwife at ease to where they felt very comfortable letting us have the room and simply offering assistance. We all defaulted to Jamie, and she consulted and worked with the whole team to bring about my best birth experience. She was gentle and firm when needed and continued to be a support and resource for me after birth. My labor and delivery would not have been the sweet memory it was without her!
