"I've had six babies, and my last, attended by Kristine, was the FIRST time I felt like I actually GAVE BIRTH. I first met her at a birth meeting where she was speaking about VBAC. Her passion for birth and her deep belief in the ability of a woman's body were exactly what I needed...I went home and told my husband she would attend our next birth. One month later we found out we were expecting again (a BIG surprise to us!). Prenatal appointments were whole-woman visits, where she got to know me (and me her) as a person. not a number. When it came time for labor, she knew just what to say, when to say it, and when to step in and help usher my sweet little (big 10b 8oz) baby to the world. I wouldn't change a single thing about that birth, and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!" -Lyndsey
