I plan to give birth in hospital with absolutely no interventions. I have Neighborhood Health Plan of RI. My goal is no interventions, and please I would like to work with someone that practices informed consent and will not get personally angry or treat me differently if I deny a given procedure!

I would like more education on home birth, VBAC, natural birth. I would like to give birth at home. My birth plan would include unmedicated, delayed cord clamping, immediate skin to skin, delayed washing.

I am early on in navigating my first pregnancy. I will be giving birth at UMass Memorial in Worcester, but I live in Charlton, MA. I am interested in having a birth doula and ideally the same candidate to help when we transition to home life for a few hours. I’m interested in having an unmediated birth, however I am aware that reality might have a different thought. Movement is a necessity for me. I have a wonderful partner, and would like to complement my support team with someone who can help me transition through labor stages as well as navigate the relationship between doctors/nurses.

I'm planning on giving birth at Elliott Hospital in Manchester NH. This is my first baby and all of our family lives in VA so I want someone to advocate for me during labor! My husband and I are definitely more on the holistic side of things, I really don't want to give birth laying on my back, we want to do delayed cord clamping, skin to skin right away, and more! I want my birth to be as natural as possible. My goal is for it to be unmedicated but also I know things happen sometimes where that's not an option. Not 100% sure what the normal budget would be for this so that's up for discussion! Our Faith is very important to us too so that has been a big part of my pregnancy journey! Would love to chat if this sounds like a fit for you 🥰

I am looking for a doula or midwife to assist in an unmediated hospital vbac. I’m looking for someone who accepts Mass General Brigham insurance. I’m looking for prenatal visits (in person preferably) as well as labor and birth attendance. I’m interested in practicing hypnobirthing but mainly looking to build a strong, supportive, relationship with my doula before birth. Also looking for someone with homeopathic knowledge to help support my pregnancy.

I’d love to have a doula for coaching purposes as I’d like to have a natural unmedicated birth this time around, I plan to give birth at st Luke’s in New Bedford, I have masshealth for insurance and wasn’t sure if they cover doula care. I’d like to labor at home as much as possible before going to hospital and I’d like the freedom to move around while laboring, my first time I was induced and had an epidural so I wasn’t able to move at all and had a decently long labor so I’d like to try something different this time
