She answered all my questions with wisdom, skill, character and kindness. She suggested particular foods and supplements to tone my uterus. She urged me to walk and stretch during early labor and when it came to the hard part she was a source of strength. My baby didn't even cry when Karen caught her. I highly recommend Karen and her services with Empowered Pregnancy.

Karen empowered me starting in the first weeks of my pregnancy, all way through delivery. We were…read morealso lucky enough to have her as our nurse when I delivered my second child at North Hawaii Community Hospital. I had an amazing, relaxing, peaceful and informed birth thanks to Karen and with her my by side. Her deep understanding of what I needed to know going into childbirth was invaluable. She helped me decipher my OB visits, including things like fundal height, heartbeat BPM, weight pacing, and what would happen to me in the event of a induction or c-section, all of which my clinic doctors did not have the time to elaborate on during visits. She advocated for me in the delivery room when I couldn't for myself. Karen clearly cares about her patients deeply and it truly shows in her experienced and empathetic caregiving. I am so thankful for Karen and her genuine and extremely knowledgeable advice, compassion and care during my most vulnerable moments.

I had a bike accident the first day of our vacation and wanted the peace of mind knowing the baby was okay. Being thousands of miles from home and having a midwife that was just as sweet and caring as our one at home meant the world to us! We heard his heart beat and kicking which was such a comfort! Merrily is a gem and so blessed to have met her on our stay!

She makes every appointment so uncomfortable. I asked to extend my leave 2 weeks due to back pain from my epiDural (which I have done with my previous pregnancy) along with PPD and she questioned me, made me feel like I was lying. I let her know that the previous doctors didn't give me such a hard time and she responded with sass "well I don't know what they did last time"

The other thing that helped during my pregnancy was how during one of my appointments I had an issue with high blood pressure and htye got me a couple bottles of water and some fruit to help me feel better.
