Guiding You Through Every Beautiful Moment

“Natalie supported us a lot, in spite of being virtual. Encouragement, helping us ask more questions, supporting us through decision points. She was a steady voice of reason in the room when a lot was happening and lots that was new and sometimes scary.Twins. Big hospital. Penchant for the medical. The odds were against us. One of the things that helped enormously in the end was that Salwa labored as much as possible sans epidural (encouraged by Natalie and others around her). This helped her learn how and where to push so that later she was able to do what everyone said was unlikely, have a natural twin birth in the OR of a highly medicalized institution. It was truly revolutionary. Twins are a lot. Natalie helped us learn to use a wrap, answer questions about breastfeeding, sleeping. She talked us through our feels when things got hard or frustrating and was there for a lot of our questions in between visits. There are a million tiny little ways in which she helped shoulder the burden that are hard to name like dishes, and even taking out the trash.”
