I was nervous about the unknown, but she was there through my inductions, was the only one in the room during my epidural, and positioned me multiple ways prior to that to make sure I was comfortable.
It has been six months since delivering my twins at Memorial in Gulfport. This was my first pregnancy and one of the only times I have received care outside of a military facility (I am Active-Duty Air Force). When I think back to my experience, I think of her every time. I wish I knew her last name. I was nervous about the unknown, but she was there through my inductions, was the only one in the room during my epidural, and positioned me multiple ways prior to that to make sure I was comfortable. From there, she was basically delivering my babies until the doctor walked in and I would have been confident in her had he not made it on time! All requests were listened to, and I felt as if we were surrounded with good energy the entire day- I would gladly go through 10 more births just like that (and if my spouse would let me), but I am SO appreciative of how it all went. I could not ask for a better team, of doctors, and nurses who made that happen for me and my family.
