My birthing experience was much better this time around, and I truly believe Kirsten played a huge role in this.
I wanted to recognize one of your nurses for going above and beyond for me.  I was induced with my second child on Sunday, in the early morning. The day shift nurse, Kirsten, was amazing.  She was very kind, patient, and clearly has compassion for her job.  My birthing experience was much better this time around, and I truly believe Kirsten played a huge role in this.  She made me "mocktails" when I couldn't eat and was very attentive to my pain.  She had me up and moving to get labor to progress, and when I could not get out of bed she had me rotate positions frequently, and she used the peanut ball which was new to me.  I had a quick labor that I attribute partly to her!

My husband also noticed how attentive Kirsten was and agreed she made the whole experience as smooth as possible.  If you could please pass along our gratitude, we would greatly appreciate it!  She made a big impression on one of the most important days of our lives!
