I was able to have the birth that I planned for because of them.
I had a traumatic experience at another hospital when my first son was born, so I was very anxious my entire pregnancy about how this birth was going to go. I went in for my C-section, and I had Mollee and J as my nurses. I cannot explain in words how thankful I am for both of them. My epidural took longer than expected (I have a curved spine and have had this same problem before) and was very painful. Both Mollee and J encouraged me the entire time! Towards the end, I thought that I couldn’t do it, but they totally made me feel like I could. I was able to have the birth that I planned for because of them. I am now looking forward to having my next baby instead of having the crippling anxiety I had this past pregnancy.
