Review for Pittsburgh Bereavement Doulas Inc, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

At 20 weeks, we found out that our baby girl had severe complications and at 23 weeks we terminated for medical reasons. I think I was in denial, and wanted to move on and pretend this never happened. My husband, on the other hand, wanted momentous and keepsakes. I agreed to getting them and working with the bereavement doulas and boy am I glad that I did. I would have been devastated right now if I would’ve declined. Heather, not only was so supportive and helpful through the process, but the keepsakes and pictures she provided us with brought me a peace and connection with my daughter that I had no idea I even needed. It changed my entire perspective and has been a vital part of my healing. I am now proud to talk about and to have known my daughter. I look at the pictures, blankets, moldings, etc every single day and they mean the world to me. The work that these doulas do is the closest to angel work I can imagine. This experience opened my eyes so much to the massive amount of parents struggling with loss and the support/resources that are so necessary. I could not be more thankful for this group and all of the support I’ve received before, during and now after. I now can cherish, love and remember my girl forever, in ways I could have never imagined.
