Hey, I’m Jamya. I’m 23 years old and this is my second pregnancy. I plan to give a natural birth at a hospital.
Painless birth experience not yelling so much when push better pain management
First pregnancy at 33 years old. I wanted to give birth at home but my family is against it so I will be birthing in hospital but want to be as natural and have as few interventions as possible. I live in Blounts Creek, NC but will be birthing in Greenville, NC. I am pregnant with healthy, baby boy who is measuring 2 weeks ahead already. No abnormalities have been identified. I am looking for experienced doula to help me prepare for labor and postpartum period and advocate for me during both. I plan to breastfeed. I am unsure of budget because I don't know how doulas bill but I also have private insurance, soon (pregnancy) medicaid and ability to pay out of pocket as well.
I plan to give birth at the hospital but a at home birth would be ideal. My budget is low because i’m not working. My birth plan is someone who will advocate my needs to an unmediated birth, helping with all things to get through the birth.
I want to have a home birth I don’t have a budget as of yet I just want to get an estimate and my birth plan is as follows (based on hospital setting but can also apply to home birth) Birth Preferences Environment •Dim lighting •Calm music / nature sounds •Minimal staff and interruptions •Essential oils or natural scents allowed •Freedom to move, walk, or change positions •Access to birthing ball, tub, or shower •Partner present at all times ⸻ Labor Preferences •I decline to labor with pain medication. •I prefer natural pain relief methods such as: • Breathing and relaxation techniques • Movement and position changes • Warm compresses or water therapy (shower/tub) • Massage or counterpressure • Visualization / prayer / affirmations • I prefer intermittent fetal monitoring instead of continuous. • I DECLINE unnecessary vaginal exams. • I DECLINE IV, unless medically necessary (saline lock only if needed). • I DECLINE labor induction or augmentation (Pitocin, breaking water) unless medically required. ⸻ Delivery Preferences • I prefer to push in upright or side-lying positions. • I prefer to follow my body’s natural urges to push. • I prefer to avoid episiotomy (allow tearing if needed). • I prefer delayed cord clamping • I prefer partner to cut the umbilical cord. • I prefer immediate skin-to-skin contact after birth. ⸻ After Birth • Baby to stay with me at all times (rooming in). • I plan to breastfeed exclusively; please no formula or pacifiers. • No interruptions during bonding time. • If baby needs to be taken to nursery, partner accompanies baby. • I prefer to delay the first bath until at least 24 hours after birth. ⸻ In Case of Cesarean (If Needed) • Gentle or family-centered cesarean (clear drape, music allowed). • Partner present during surgery. • Immediate skin-to-skin if possible, or with partner. • Delayed cord clamping if possible. • Breastfeeding in recovery room.
