If I wouldn’t have found Kamilla and her wonderful team, I would have gone back to my home country The Netherlands for giving birth. Before getting pregnant, I heard a lot of stories about very medical ways of giving birth in Spain that were far from what I wanted the birth of my baby to look like. I found Kamilla and immediately connected with her. Her positive but down to earth energy was very helpful during pregnancy and I was amazed at how she was always available to answer all my questions and keep me calm when I worried about something. I felt very safe to have someone with such a natural approach to pregnancy & birth as my OBGYN and this made me even look forward to giving birth! During labour & birth, the wonderful calm presence of Ann-Sophie combined with the energy of Kamilla made me feel safe & respected. I felt I could trust whatever they suggested was the right thing at that moment which is very useful when you want to focus on breathing and riding the waves of your contractions. Now as a mom, I still get wonderful advice from Ann-Sophie on breastfeeding and caring for my baby. Looking back at the whole process of pregnancy, giving birth & beyond, I’m almost nostalgic at how beautifully these women have guided me. They are more than just a gynecologist and a midwife: they really see the person in front of them and find ways that suit that specific person. I’m so grateful to have met them!
