I’ve hired a doula coming from flawless recommendations. One night I was having cramps/contractions all night long, throwing up but it got better in the morning, she was very helpful through text message. The following day I’ve lost my mucus plug, I was supposed to be taken into induction, but when I was there, I entered labor. My husband reached out asking when we should expect her to come. Answers were like “we’ll keep chatting”. The night was awful with the contractions, and in the morning I expressed my discontent because I’ve labored so long without her nowhere to be seen and she knew what was happening and where we were. She said she assumed everything was ok because we didn’t send any more updates (but it was understood she was on her way that night). Ok, misunderstanding. She swings by in the morning (around 10am) after I took the epidural and was stating pitocin (I was not dilated after 30h), she hangs out for an hour and says she will come back after running errands. We’ve made sure to keep her posted by text, informing her and asked again that it would be helpful to know exactly when we should expect her. 10pm hits by, not dilated, I’m being send to C section. All I hear from our doula is, “sending you big hugs”. The next day, we heard NOTHING from her, not even a message asking if everything went ok.
