Hello, Red Deer hospital is where I will be giving birth. As of right now natural birth is the plan. This is our first baby and we couldn’t be more excited ! I’m 39 and my hubby is 41. My hubby owns a successful extremely busy oilfield company so looking for a little help from someone we connect with and trust. Thank you

I’m Jessica and my partner Cristian we just arrived for the birth of our daughter that is expected to be at the end of the month. We made all the pregnancy care in Panama where we live most of the time. I have the information of our ultrasounds, blood test and according with our go ecologist everything is ok for a natural labor. Now we are looking for the correct place for our baby arrival

1. Where do you plan to give birth (home/hospital)? Hospital. 2. Provide your estimated budget Our estimated budget for doula support is $1,500. We are most interested in meaningful support that focuses on emotional reassurance, breastfeeding guidance, and helping us adjust during the early postpartum period. 3. Describe your birth plan This is my first baby, so I’m keeping my birth plan flexible and open-minded. My main goal is to feel calm, supported, and informed throughout the process. I plan to give birth in a hospital and would like to aim for a low-intervention birth if possible, while fully trusting medical guidance if plans need to change. Emotional support and reassurance are very important to me, especially as someone who can feel anxious in new situations. My priorities include: Feeling supported and advocated for during labor My partner being involved and supported as well Skin-to-skin contact after birth if possible Support with early breastfeeding and latching A calm, positive environment that helps reduce stress and overwhelm I value guidance, reassurance, and gentle encouragement over a rigid birth plan, and I’m looking for support that helps me feel confident as I transition into motherhood.

I will be giving birth at the Lethbridge hospital. I was unable to get a midwife so I am looking at potentially getting a doula to support me in having an unmedicated birth. My fiance is extremely supportive and will want to do anything he can to help but he lacks the vast knowledge of different coping mechanisms that a doula would have.

I need help with breast feeding i switched to punping because of pain and i keep trying to get baby to latch but i get a good latch then it starts hurting by the second or third time of latching

My baby has been super gassy and I think it has to do with his latch, he started clicking which means he’s swallowing more air. I think it may be due to a poor latch. He is 3weeks old. Only breastfed but gets 1-2 breast bottles a day. Do you take Molina insurance?

My baby has a posterior tongue tie and clicks when he eats.. and sucks in way to much air. Because of this my milk supply has dropped and he’s losing weight! Doctor said I should seek a lactation specialist. I can only afford this if it’s covered on insurance

Would love advice/direction into breastfeeding. Hoping to find a consultant within our insurance

We are looking for a certified lactation consultant that supports our choice to both breast feed and bottle feed and also accepts Kaiser WA insurance . Our son was born (12/19/25) with a tongue tie and struggled to latch on the breast from the start. Since then, we have gotten the tongue tie released. He now is able to latch on the breast with a nipple shield, which I am hoping to not need. Our son also struggles with reflux and gas, and I am wondering if his latch has something to do with it.

I plan to give birth at Ridge Meadows Hospital. There is a possibility of going to another hospital should Ridge Meadows be on a divergent schedle the day I go into labour. Once I am cleared from the hospital my husband and I will be staying with my parents in North Delta for approximately 40 days. Once this time period is complete we will be back in our home in Maple Ridge. This is my husband and I's first baby and we have hope that being with my parents will be helpful, but we would also appreciate the support of people who have specialized knowledge and perspectives other than our own. I am not certain of the cost of these support systems or how charges are done, but would appreciate if there is someone who may be able to submit to extended health particularly through Great West / Canada Life. My birth plan, at its basics is, Natural, vaginal, unmediated aside from laughing gas. I intend to take it slow and easy and allow my body to guide me as I go through labour and child birth. I am hopeful of a good outcome.
