Looking for doula covered by Blue cross blue shield in Illinois. Delivering at northwestern Delnor Hospital in Geneva IL.

I plan to give birth at Advocate Sherman in Elgin IL. I don’t have an exact budget, an I would just like someone aside from my husband who is able to speak up for me and assist me with laboring the way I want to. I also have major anxiety about postpartum because I suffered the loss of my first born at a month old.

This is my first pregnancy, I’m 37 years old, I need help with postpartum support.

I plan on giving birth at St. Alexian Hospital in Hoffman Estates, IL or Delnor Hospital in Geneva, IL. I have Medicare primary insurance and Medicaid secondary insurance. I want to wait until my water is broken to go to the hospital as I want a more natur1al birth.

May consider other services as well 3) VBAC, avoid c-section (very traumatic), open to all pain relief options but want epidural to be the last resort, open to medical interventions if other suggestions (walking, taking a shower, peanut ball, or different laboring positions) don't work

Hello — I hope this note finds you well! My husband and I are thrilled to be welcoming twins via surrogate in the Rockford area soon — our induction date is 4/6 but, of course, they might arrive sooner. We realize this is quite last-minute, but we would be interested in overnight care for the first week or so once they’re back from the hospital. (We then fly home to SF.) Do you have any availability in the next 1-3 weeks (we won’t yet know how soon they’ll come or if they need NICU time, of course)? If so, can you share more about your practice, including any experience you have with twins and your rates? Thanks very much for considering! Jeanette and Jeremy (and Baby A + Baby B)

Birth support postpartum support

I plan to give birth at home using a water birth, budget is $100-$1500. Doula should have at least 4 years of experience and an elderly doula would be preferred

I plan on giving birth in the hospital, I want to avoid C-section if possible. Looking for help in creating a birth plan and someone to advocate with my partner and I during delivery. Interested in delayed cord cutting immediate skin to skin contact. Currently looking for someone who excepts meridian Medicaid insurance

I am currently planning to give birth at cdh. I’m not sure what an appropriate budget for a doula is so I guess I’m interested in rates. I’d hope to not go over a thousand dollars but like I said I don’t know what is appropriate. I’d like to give birth with the least amount of interventions possible. I will be doing a vbac labor, my first baby will be 2 and 2 months at the date of the delivery and was a cesarían because she was breech presenting.

I would like a doula who can help educate me on all my options around birth and how to best prepare for that. I'd also like them to be present when I'm giving birth, and potentially post partum care. I'm giving birth at Central Dupage Hospital. I learned today that my insurance plan covers doulas that are in-network, so ideally they would be in-network with BCBSIL. I don't know my birth plan, I would like help figuring that out.

Help me with postpartum care, baby care, lactation

Hello, I am a first time mom and little nervous about giving birth. I have blue cross community heath plan and wondering if you work with that insurance? I want to breast feed and will need help learning how. I will be delivering at elmhurst hospital with endeavor health. Looking for a doula that will support me and help me advocate for myself as well as keep my birth partner calm.

Hi! This is my first pregnancy and delivery. I am planning to give birth at Advent Health’s UChicago at Hinsdale. I was looking for doula services that would be covered by my Medicaid’s BCBS Community health insurance. My hope is to have a vaginal delivery. I believe a doula can be my source of the much needed guidance, assistance, and strength I’ll require experiencing labor and delivery for the first time. I really look forward to matching with a sweet, supportive, and knowledgeable doula that can calm my nerves and make my birthing experience much better. Thank you!!

I'm 35 and am having a low-risk pregnancy, my first child. I would love a doula to help advocate for me, in addition to my partner, and help with emotional support as I navigate this new experience. 1. I plan to give birth at a hospital near Downers Grove (we still need to tour hospitals) 2. No set budget/flexible 3. Early labor at home, low dose epidural at hospital, have a healthy baby, and accept intervention as needed. I'm an epidemiologist and will inform my decisions based on best available data.

Hi! I wanted to share a little about the support I’m hoping for during labor. I’d really like to try for an unmedicated birth if possible, so having help with breathing, positioning, and counter pressure during contractions would mean a lot. My priorities are being able to move freely, delivering in the position I choose, delayed cord clamping, and keeping interventions minimal if everything is safe. I’d also love a calm, dark, peaceful environment. My pregnancy has IUGR, so there’s a chance I may need to deliver earlier than expected. I’m hoping for someone who can support me emotionally, help advocate for me if needed, and also guide my partner on how he can best support me during labor. I’m planning to use Medicaid/Blue Cross Community if possible, and I also wanted to ask if it would be possible to be matched with a Caucasian doula for my own comfort. Thank you! 🤍
