Our plan is to give birth at the Abbott Northwestern Mother Baby Center in Minneapolis. I plan to be induced at 39 weeks (6/19) due to AMA. I want an epidural, but I don’t want to give birth on my back.
I plan to give birth at Abbott Northwestern. This is my second child, my first was born at Regions which was a 30+ hour labor including PPH. I am hoping for a smoother experience and less anxiety this time! I'd like to find someone with several years of experience. My husband is a resident physician and it is important to us to find someone who works well with care teams. I am not sure yet about my postpartum doula needs and budget, just thinking I'd like to find help with that too.
Hospital birth Natural but willing to get epidural
Fairview Southdale hospital in Edina, MN is where I plan to give birth. I'll be having a TOLAC, and while I'd prefer to have an unmedicated birth, I am open to an epidural. My goal is a successful vbac that involves lots of movement and gets my baby earthside safely. My budget is $1500 maximum, but I would prefer to spend $1000-1200.
Have an 8 mo old right now but I also have a 10 cm fibroid planning to have it surgically removed May 6! Wondering your thoughts on pregnancy afterwards any advice is helpful
I plan to give birth in a hospital, I am going on MA so would like a doula that is covered by MA. I want to try to stay natural with birth, it is my first time giving birth so I want to get educated on what’s best for my body so it goes as smooth and healthy as possible.

Hi there! This is a first pregnancy/child for myself and my partner, Charles. Doulas have come highly recommended from family and friends and we look forward to working with one of you! Our main priorities are education and advocacy support. We are both new to this journey and will greatly benefit from open, transparent conversations about our options, items we may not even think to ask about, and creating a plan (plus plans b, c, d and more) that we’re all comfortable with and on the same page about. Prior to this pregnancy, I’ve always been on the “drugs ASAP” train for birth. As I’ve read and started educating myself, I would like evidence-based information on natural births and waiting until 7-8cm before introducing an epidural. My goal is a vaginal birth if it is safe for me and baby and anything to reduce tearing and long-term pain is my preference if possible. I want to give birth in a hospital setting because I feel safest in a setting with all of the medical staff and resources that may be necessary. Regarding advocacy, I am a high risk mama-to-be. I will be 35 when the baby is born, I have a high BMI and I have been a type II diabetic for years. I’m blessed to have a wonderful medical team and support system so my A1c is in the normal range and my other health markers are strong without medication. I imagine it’s beneficial for a potential doula to be aware of those conditions. Charles and I are both black and are well aware of the black maternal death rates during birth. We want to ensure we have an advocate for our comfort and safety, along with the baby’s comfort and safety, when we may not be able to advocate for ourselves. We plan to have the baby at Abbott Northwestern in Minneapolis and would love to take birthing, newborn and postpartum educational classes. My due date is 11/20, but my doctors and midwife have referenced I’ll likely go at 37-39 weeks due to my risk factors. An early-mid November labor is likely. A few fun facts about us! Charles is a high school science teacher and I work in the interior design/color psychology field. We live in a super cute old house in Minneapolis with our two cats. Our hobbies include cooking, traveling and reading. I also love trash reality tv and Charles is a big Dungeons & Dragons nerd. Our nursery artwork will be Pokémon themed 🤣 Hopefully all of that information fulfills the dating-profile-esque matching basics so we can all make an educated decision when considering working together. Really looking forward to connecting and learning!
