I will be giving birth at BC Women’s Hospital in Vancouver, BC and am looking for support during labor. I am getting care from a midwife team at Westside Midwives and have a healthy pregnancy and baby. Unless something surprising occurs, I will have a vaginal birth, likely with an epidural. I am curious but nervous about doing a natural birth. Alongside a midwife (and hopefully a doula!), my husband will be present as support during the birth. This is my first pregnancy, so I’m not sure what to expect! My budget is up to $2000, but we may be willing to pay more for the right person.
Birth doula. Hospital birth, normal birth Need someone close by during labour, comforting, calm and understanding Also looking for a midwife willing to do home birth.
My name is Lisa, I'm expecting my first baby (a girl) on June 18th, 2026. I plan on giving birth at Langley Memorial Hospital. Labor plan is to wait for spontaneous labor to start, go unmedicated as possible, and to labor at home as long as possible. I don't have a doula or midwife and planned to rely on my husband to help support me through it. However, we just got word today that my husband was booked for a surgical procedure (PFO, to close a hole in his heart) scheduled for June 15th, 2026 in Vancouver (VGH) due to a stroke he suffered in August last year. With our daughter being due on June 18th, i feel like I've lost my biggest support for the birth. I'm hoping to connect with a provider that can help me when I'm in labor (at home and/or the hopsital) and be of some support that he would've given- helping with pain relief, hip squeezes, holding in different mobility positions etc. - things he can't do if he is recovering. I hope he is still able to be there at the hospital for when she's born, of course for his presence, affirmations, but mostly to simply have him there. But if it is on tht day or he is still on bed rest, then I want to have a backup. I would ask another family member, but I'm hoping a professional/birth doula would be equipped to help more on such short notice. I have no estimation on budget so I'm open to hearing what some rates are. Thank you so much!
