Brittany alone made my hospital stay absolutely amazing.
I was induced to go into labor, I had met a bunch of nurses and staff members who did their job great, were all very kind, and caring, but then I met Brittany on her shift. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable during labor and to make sure I kept my plan of an all-natural birth. Everything I asked she would help me with and she even had suggestions and tips which were super helpful. I thought she was amazing during my whole labor however, she continued to amaze me after my daughter was born. She went into great depth in explaining everything, even demonstrating and showing me exactly how things were done. Brittany would check on me and baby periodically and would answer any questions I had with helpful and informative answers. She also was very helpful with the breastfeeding process. I had no idea what I was doing when it came to breastfeeding. Brittany was very patient with me and helped me get my baby to latch as well as showing me different positions so I could breastfeed comfortably. She showed us how to safely give our newborn a bath. She was always there to answer all my questions and concerns throughout my hospital stay. She alone made my hospital stay absolutely amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better nurse. I learned so much and the most from her in such a short period of time. I can’t thank her enough and I wish I could.
