I stumbled upon rooted birth from word of mouth and I am so glad I did!! Since Ashleigh wasn’t able to come into the hospital during this pandemic and I had plans to deliver unmedicated, our plan was to labor most at home.
Ashleigh came to our house several times to educate my husband and I for the process, signs of labor, and ideal positions. When my contractions came, she came to help make sure I was dilated enough to be admitted. We labored for 5 hours at home until she knew I was ready to go. This was my first baby and she played a huge role in keeping my environment calm and my husband even calmer. 😂
We laughed together, prayed together, and sang together. It was such a special experience for us.
Ashleigh is very educated, she pushed me to help my contractions strengthen. When we arrived at the hospital I was at 7cm, exactly what she wanted us to be at. A few hours later, our sweet Willow Grace was born.
I would recommend Ashleigh to anyone. She made my unmedicated birth possible & I am so thankful for her guidance and encouragement. I can’t wait for baby #2!!
