Sara Patterson: This was one of the best medical experiences I've had in a really long time, and I'm so grateful that my postpartum doula recommended Postpartum Care USA,
What made you finally invest in your postpartum recovery and what did you try prior to starting with our packages?
Sara Patterson: I finally invested in postpartum Care USA because honestly, I was desperate. Um, my postpartum anxiety and symptoms came about 5 to 6 months after I had my baby, and I thought they were going to come a lot earlier and so my doctor wouldn't do the intense hormonal blood work that I really wanted to try and get to the bottom of my symptoms. And so that's what pushed me towards the service was that they listened to me, they heard me, and they were able to do the tests that I needed.
What were you struggling with specifically and how was it affecting your life? How did we help with significantly reducing those symptoms?
Sara Patterson: The worst symptoms that I was experiencing was insomnia and nightly panic attacks. So I would wake up out of my sleep completely unaware as to why I was even panicking, and these would go on every single night. Um, and so it was becoming unbearable and extreme restlessness at night, restless leg, total insomnia, having trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, and then also waking up was just constant state of exhaustion. Um, another thing that I was struggling with, with was eczema all over my scalp and also was struggling just with crippling, um, anxiety that I've never experienced in my life before. Um, and those were happening all at once. And so Postpartum Care USA was really helpful in trying to get the testing to understand why I was having those symptoms, and also why they were happening at certain times of the day. And so that I was able to turn, um, the way that I was eating around, the way I was taking my supplements, adding supplements that really aided in kind of getting my nights under control so that I could have better days.
What was your overall experience and would you recommend our services to any mom in need? Give them permission to reach out mama!!
Sara Patterson: This was one of the best medical experiences I've had in a really long time, and I'm so grateful that my postpartum doula recommended Postpartum Care USA, um, especially because I really like that they meet you wherever you are, right? So it's not just right after you have the baby. It's months and months and months later, like in my experience, they were still able to help me in such a thorough way. I would absolutely recommend Postpartum Care USA to any mama postpartum, um, whether that be right away or later on in their journey, because I really think that you will get back to the version of yourself that hopefully that you want to be in time. And also, I know for sure that I'll be using them for any future children that I have as well.
