Hi ! My name is Nadia. I'm expecting my first baby on December 19th and I'm looking for a birth doula. We live in Easton and I'll be delivering at Yale New Haven's Bridgeport campus, with Women's Obstetrics & Gynecology in Trumbull. What I'm hoping for: a medicated hospital birth. I'm not trying for an unmedicated delivery and I'd rather not be talked into one— I want someone who is fully on board with an epidural and will help me get the best version of that experience rather than treat it as a fallback. Some context on where my pregnancy stands, because it shapes what I need: [personal details hidden], [personal details hidden], and my glucose screening is still ahead of me. At my anatomy scan we learned [personal details hidden]. Because of that I'm on serial growth scans. At my most recent one, at 24w6d, [personal details hidden]. [personal details hidden] and [personal details hidden], but we're watching the trend closely and I'm pushing for shorter intervals between scans. What that means practically is that there's a real chance of a smaller baby, a possible early delivery, and more monitoring and decision points than a typical labor. I'd like someone who is comfortable in that environment. What I'm looking for in a doula: Someone who can help me keep track of what's happening medically and translate it in the moment so I understand what I'm agreeing to when decisions come quickly and advocate for me in real time where I might be physically/emotionally compromised. Help with labor positions, including after an epidural. If the baby ends up in a difficult position I'd love someone with Spinning Babies training or similar. My two biggest fears, honestly: First, being separated from my baby after delivery. Given the growth situation there's a chance she needs extra observation, and the thought of her being taken somewhere I want to avoid at all costs. I want help protecting skin-to-skin and the first hour wherever it's medically possible, and I want someone who knows how to ask the right questions and push back (within reason) if a separation is proposed. Second, the epidural not working or only working on one side. I want someone who can help me cope if there's a gap and who will keep pressing for anesthesia to come back and fix it rather than letting it ride. A few practical questions: Do you have experience specifically at Bridgeport Yale? What's your backup arrangement if you're at another birth when I go into labor, and have I met that person? Do you offer any postpartum hours, and are you available for December? My husband and I would love to talk. Thank you for reading all of this!

Hi! My husband and I are expecting our first baby, a little boy, in January, and we are so excited to become parents! 🤍 We’re a very loving, happy, and close-knit couple and are really looking forward to this next chapter together. As first-time parents, we’d love to have some extra support during those early newborn weeks, especially overnight. We’re looking for a night nurse/night doula who can help us learn the ropes, get a little more sleep, and feel confident as we adjust to life with our baby. We’re not looking for someone to replace us or take over — we really want someone warm, caring, trustworthy, and experienced who can be a supportive presence in our home and help us navigate those first few weeks. We’re located in the Darien CT area and would love to connect with someone who feels like the right fit for our family. If you have availability around January, please feel free to message me. We’d love to hear more about you and your experience! 🤍
