We’re truly making an impact, hear what our members are saying

“I spoke with a midwife when I found out I had a breeched baby. She was able to provide me with some suggestion of what I could do to help flip my baby. I took many of those suggestions and was able to get my baby in the correct position which helped me avoid a C-Section. This is a life-changing product.”

“I have used every service Maven offers—from lactation consultants to digital doulas to mental health professionals. The LC was especially helpful as I navigated a rare and painful breast condition; the digital doula gave me tips for staying in labor at home; and the nurses have answered tons of questions about my baby in the hours that my pediatrician was closed and I was worried!

“Egg freezing is something that so few people are educated on and Maven provides a platform for women to ask informed individuals about it without having to think twice about if they'd know the answer or not.”
