Find Midwife Jobs Near Coldwater, ON

Im a first time mom who is nervous and didnt have the best experience for the first doctors appointment. I would like some insight on birthing options and what midwives have to offer. 1. I havent completely decided on a home birth vs hospital birth 2. Not sure, just want good care 3. To have a safe and healthy baby. I would like to try a natural birth

I'm looking to give birth at a facility or hospital. Morristown Nj. My birth plan is to hopefully give birth in a water birthing tub, natural and only medicine offered if I ask, delayed cord cutting, no episiotomy, no force on when my water breaks or placenta comes, golden hour, no shots or vaccines in myself or my baby... basically all holistic and natural unless I say differently.

I am 34 years old, I have a two year old daughter. My husband I have been trying to get pregnant (with no avail) since we received the green light after giving birth to my daughter. I started the process of seeking a fertility specialist for alternate methods along with going to doctors for bloodwork, started taking tirosint for hashimotos, and trying to keep up with every day life with a two year old at the same time. I am looking for a midwife/ob that I can become acquainted with as my primary OB that will follow me into the realm of pregnancy and birth, God willing. I am VERY holistic and natural in all areas of my life, yet still am aware that there is a time and place for western medicine.

I would prefer to give birth at home if possible. I want to do a natural birth, delayed cord clamping until cord is white and no longer pulsating, no circumcision, no vaccines or shots, no bath for the first week if possible.

I plan on giving birth at home All natural in water And budget cheap lol

I would like to have a water birth in my own home. I’d like to keep it under $5000 and be able to have a payment plan.

Me and my family of 6 just moved to this new city. Me and my husband don’t trust any of these hospitals down here. I would like a trustworthy, good, honest doula by my side. I get bad vibes when I go to visit maternity floors at both hospitals.

I would like to have a water birth at home, be able to move and hope to be IV free as I get very irritated by it in my skin. I am open to a hospital birth as I've had one previous but wasn't happy with the outcome of my last birth. Not quite sure on budget yet.

I’d like to have an at home birth. I’d like to be able to move freely, have extended cord clamping, and optional birthing positions. No medications. $2000

Thinking about birthing center. My husband is a full time student and part time first responder, and I’m a sahm, so as affordable as possible or covered by insurange. Medicaid -ambetter

Would like to do a home birth Some one who respect how I feel and will let me know what going on in every step of laboring and birthing.

I would like to transfer to a midwife for a less “traditional” labor and delivery. I would prefer to have the baby at a birthing center with little no pain medication and more private labor and delivery.
