- "Doulas trust birth and are not afraid of it even when the mom and dad get afraid," Short (doula) said. "We're there to just say things are fine; you're doing great; this is all normal."
- Ten days after the birth of her son, Braydon, Trotter reflected on the experience. "It was a perfect one in my eyes," she said. "I think having a doula definitely would be helpful for anybody, and I wouldn't change anything about the birth."
- Short enjoys seeing new families come to life and concludes, "The best part for me is helping women realize what their bodies can do. Just having that support can make all the difference."
