the duration of three months. Maria, sleep trained the
babies and have them on a good schedule and routine.My

our doula. Maria combines enormous wisdom,experience,
professionalism and a great deal of human kindness in
her work and was a joy to have with us. In addition to
her extraordinary skills as a doula. She is a also
quite skilled in taking care of recuperating mothers
and was very helpful to me. I have been incredibly

the nights were less helpful, and less stressful---
having the support, and rest which was so desperately
needed. Needless to say, we were so sleep deprived and
exhausted! However, Maria is a total gem help with
laundry, cooking and works nights to accommodate a
family schedule.Thank you,Carrie

Hi! I just delivered my mono-di twin girls via normal
delivery there last September 28, 2013 at 37 weeks and
2 days gestation. 1. Laboring room - no restrictions
with how many people who could go inside the labor
suite which was roomy and nice 2. Delivery room (OR)
without csection - I had two support people with me, my
mother and my husband. They broke my bag of water at
about 1 in the afternoon and painful contractions
ensued so I immediately asked for my Epidural. Then I
slept for a few hours and when they checked me out
again, I was already fully dilated and wheeled into the
OR right away. I would say this was about 4:15 or so.
By 5:00 pm I had given birth to baby A. My pushing was
quite short. Preps took longer. Baby B was born at 5:57
pm because we had to wait. They had to resume me on
Pitocin again to get the contractions going again after
breaking my second bag of water. 3. Delivery room with
csection - I was told that only one support person
could be present, but I would imagine if your two
support people were already scrubbed up and inside the
OR with you then they decide on doing an emergency C,
would they really have time to kick one of your support
people out? I would think that would be the least of
their concerns. But if you are scheduled for a C
section then they can strictly impose the one person
only policy. 4. Nursery bracelet - They give it to you
and your spouse generally. They were strict with this.
each bracelet is tied to one person and there's no way
you could trade one off between two.
