Find Doula Jobs in Harvard, MA

I have no idea on any of this. A friend had a baby 6 months ago and highly recommended this and I am hoping to get pregnant this November

I’m planning to give birth at Sturdy hospital in Attleboro MA. My budget is about 1000. I would like to go unmedicated or delay any medical intervention as long as possible.

I plan to give birth at Women and infants. I think they are planning on inducing me because I am considered higher risk. Our budget is between 800-1000, but can go up to 1200 if it's the right person. My birth plan is to not die basically. I don't know. I know I want an epidural. I don't know what my options are. My husband and I have a history of medical trauma, and so there is some anxiety on his part going in.

I plan to give birth at South Shore hospital. I had a horrible first birth experience and the closer I get to my due date, the more my anxiety has been increasing. My budget is very small. I have blue cross blue shield of MA ppo plan.

Hospital birth As natural as possible but high risk-bicuspid aortic valve-being seen by MFM Plan to use insurance Birth plan: epidural or possibly not, laboring down as much as long as possible allowing fetal ejection reflex to hopefully take place so minimal pushing. I declined the use of a forceps/suction assisted birth. C section is also still on the table. Want to move about freely or if there’s an epidural in place assistance moving, do not want to birth on my back. Minimal vaccines, delaying schedule and not doing all of them. Must be the preservative free vitamin k shot and if not available then drops only. Delayed cord clamping until white or not pulsating. Baby stays in room with us at all times for all tests etc.. plan to breast feed.

Hospital birth, $2500 budget, would like a natural birth
