First of all, she is very well informed and makes sure you are informed as well, even though she had not attended many births at the time of my delivery. She has a bubbly, warm personality that immediately makes you feel comfortable and open with her from the moment you meet her. My backstory is that I wasn’t originally planning on having a doula, but there was a chance my husband might not be able to attend the delivery. I was already in my third trimester when I started looking for someone, and I feel very lucky that Rebecca was available. She is very reliable and supportive. Her calm and bubbly presence made labor and delivery feel much more manageable—we talked about everything and nothing during labor, which really helped keep me grounded. She also helped me communicate with the nurses and doctor about my wishes. My delivery experience with the doctor was not very positive. I felt rushed, especially because it was late in the evening, and I did not feel fully listened to. I did not want my water to be broken and wanted to labor down, but the doctor broke my water and encouraged me to push to deliver, saying laboring down was not possible and even dangerous. In that moment, Rebecca helped me communicate my concerns in a respectful and calm way and supported me emotionally when I felt my wishes were being dismissed. Before this experience, I didn’t fully understand what a doula does. Having Rebecca there the entire time made a huge difference and turned what could have been a very stressful experience into a much more positive one. She truly helped transform a difficult situation into something I can look back on with gratitude, love, and laughter.

Becca is simply amazing even with an elementary aged child that doesn’t really want his picture taken! She managed to get amazing shots of him and his sister together! You won’t regret hiring her for babies, families, engagement, or whatever your occasion!
— Kelly Vigness, review of Rebecca Ralbovsky
Rebecca was absolutely amazing for our maternity photos! I was so nervous about being in front of the camera pregnant, but she made everything feel super easy and natural. She was amazing with our kids, gave just enough direction without making anything feel awkward, and somehow captured all the sweet little moments in between. Our gallery seriously made me emotional. The photos feel warm, real, and so *us*. I can hardly wait for our newborn session! SERIOUSLY trying to figure out how to manage another session with her too. Highly recommend!

What is a midwife?
A midwife is a licensed medical professional who cares for low-risk pregnancies and mothers who want no-to-low intervention deliveries (e.g., home birth, birthing center delivery, water birth).
Can you pay for a midwife with HSA or FSA funds in Minot, ND?
Yes, you can use Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds to pay for midwifery services, as long as those services are related to medical care. Always check the specific rules of your HSA or FSA plan, as there can be variations in what expenses are considered eligible between different plans.
Are midwives covered by insurance in Minot, ND?
North Dakota Medicaid covers care provided by certified nurse-midwives, including prenatal visits, birth, and postpartum services. Coverage for licensed or certified professional midwives at home or in birth centers depends on the plan and does not apply to every Medicaid member. In Minot, there are currently no midwives listed within 60 miles, which may limit local options. Private insurance coverage varies, so review your plan’s network and maternity benefits.
What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?
A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.
What's the difference between a midwife and an OBGYN?
A midwife is a healthcare professional who specializes in low-risk pregnancies, childbirth, and postpartum care. They typically emphasize a natural and holistic approach, focusing on minimal medical interventions. Midwives often work in birth centers, at home births, or in hospitals, depending on their certification and location. They provide personalized care and support throughout pregnancy and labor and may also assist with breastfeeding and newborn care. An OBGYN is a medical doctor who has completed extensive training, including medical school and a residency, specializing in obstetrics and gynecology. They care for all types of pregnancies, including high-risk cases, and are trained to handle medical complications, perform surgeries (like C-sections), and provide comprehensive reproductive healthcare beyond pregnancy. OBGYNs typically work in hospitals or clinics and can manage a broader range of medical situations.
Can I see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy?
Yes, you can see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy. Midwives are trained to provide care during pregnancy, including for those conceived through IVF, as long as the pregnancy is low-risk. They can help with prenatal care, labor, and delivery, and provide postpartum support. However, if your IVF pregnancy is considered high-risk or involves complications, you may need to work with an obstetrician in collaboration with the midwife to ensure proper care. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best care plan for your situation.
