Find Doula Jobs in Belleville, IL

I'm looking into having a doula along for my third birth. My first two labor experiences were straightforward with a few hiccups, but I'm looking for more flexibility and agency this time around. I plan to labor at the hospital and am open to an epidural or not depending on how I'm feeling in the moment. I'd like to retain movement as long as I can tolerate it. I don't have a budget in mind right now, I'm beginning the research process.

I will be giving birth in a hospital. I am unsure on a budget, I do have health care through my job and also medicaid if that helps. I don't really have a birth plan, this is my first child I just want to ensure that I have an advocate that'll help with necessary birth decisions.

I want to have a low intervention, un medicated birth at Mercy Hospital off Ballas Road. This is my first pregnancy. I’m unsure how much doulas cost, but would love to keep it as low as possible due to all of our other medical bills.

Hi, I’m going to be a first time mom! As I am super excited and starting to plan my near future, I am also trying to navigate how I want my birthing experience to go. I know that I would like to have a hospital birth, which I believe I have found the perfect hospital for me. As of right now I am still researching this and that. Meaning, there are so many different birthing experiences. I’m sure everyone has their dream ideal labor and delivery story to which some come true and some do not. I am fully aware anything can happen but before we go there, I do have an “ideal” way I’d like to see my labor going. I would very much prefer an unmedicated birth. My main goal is no epidural. I do have a few different reasons as to why I don’t want it, but that is something we can always get into later if you’d like! I should also mention again, this is my goal! If at any point I get to a point during labor where I absolutely want it or feel that I need it, if able to, I will change my mind. I also would love to stay away from Pitocin as long as possible as long as there are no complications etc. of course if the labor is getting dangerous for me or baby, I understand. I am also hoping as my doula (when we find each other!) you will help me understand more about these. As long as things go as planned, I plan on my mother and boyfriend being present during my labor and birth. I also hope I can add another amazing support person to the list! Someone that will 110% advocate for me if and when needed, and Someone that will keep me updated and educated! I hope to speak soon, thank you!

Hospital birth Insurance Don’t have a birth plan English

I plan to give birth in the hospital. I have no idea what this costs, but I’m looking for something inexpensive that accepts BCBS insurance. I’m going to work toward doing it as natural as possible. I am not anti-epidural but if I can have someone prepare me, I shouldn’t need it. My husband will be involved in my birth. But I believe I want delayed cord clamping, the golden hour, and a natural birth with as least of a risk of tearing as possible.
