Yesterday Jackie came in to drop off a donation of baby supplies for the Baby Boutique and to introduce the staff to her son, Dilla. She had her initial ultrasound in late winter with Nurse Amanda, who mentioned at that time how being the nurse, she doesn’t see many of the babies after they are born. She said she would love for them to bring the baby back to see her.
Jackie delivered in May. Jackie and her baby’s father came to visit us with their beautiful baby boy and had so many great things to say about their very supportive experience at Amnion…
Jackie was so positive about her experience and wanted us to know how much her relationships with Amnion’s nurse and other staff meant to her. It wasn’t just medical care, it was compassionate, gentle and unrushed care that she received that made her feel confident and supported at the same time.
When Jackie first came to Amnion, she was verifying her pregnancy with an ultrasound. She shared, “After the ultrasound, the nurse asked if she could pray for me. I had not told her that I recently had a miscarriage and was nervous about the pregnancy, but she prayed for a safe delivery! The prayer time was extremely special and something I won’t forget. It was another example of the extra time taken just for me.”
In addition to receiving medical services, Jackie enjoyed taking part in the Earn While You Learn program and thought she knew how to install a car seat until she took the car seat training! She said all of the educational sessions were helpful and informative and highly recommends the program to friends who are expecting.
She has come full circle – now Jackie is donating baby items to support other mothers in the program… giving back out of the love that she received!
