I need a midwife who can help me through pregnancy journey

I’m a late transfer (meeting my OB tomorrow at almost 31 weeks), and the only practice that would take me is the SMH First Physicians Group Pregnancy Center, which delivers at Sarasota Memorial Hospital (yay!) but can’t guarantee who my actual delivery doctor/nurse will be… or even if it’ll be consistent through my remaining prenatal appts. I want someone to be a constant through the end of my pregnancy and delivery, to know my plan, manage the vibes, and advocate for me. I want an unmedicated vaginal birth. I understand that things sometimes derail that plan, but I don’t want intervention to be assumed. I’m willing to pivot for my safety and the baby’s, but I know how doctors and hospitals often jump straight to medical interventions as CYA from liability, and I want someone on my team with the knowledge and empathy to guide the situation on behalf. I have a Cigna Open Access Plus plan (based in NYC, but national coverage).

Wanting to give birth in a birthing center and stay away from hospitals. A water birth would be the perfect scenario. We don’t have a budget yet but would like to keep it cost effective and be able to use our insurance. I want a natural birth with as much training as possible to prevent tears and intervention.

Hello, I am looking for someone that accepts Medicaid. I have recently moved from South Carolina to Lakeland Florida. This is my first child and honestly I don’t really know too much about midwives and doulas, I just know I want an at home birth and a trusted supportive midwife by my side. I’ve tried all the birthing centers in the area and they are all booked in August. I thank you for taking the time out to read this. If you are unable as well please point me in the right direction with some recommendations please I really would appreciate it.
