Find Midwife Jobs Near Mountain Home, ID

I would like to give birth at home. My estimate budget under 1000$

Looking for a midwife , or doula to assist in the home birth of my third child. Ive had successful homebirth for my first , and second child ,almost a home birth, but the midwife felt it was taking too long and rushed me to the hospital , where I barely made in time for my daughter to not be born in the car . The experience was traumatic because my support lacked confidence, and expertise to endure at the very end which made me very fearful something was wrong which instensified the pain . I didn’t feel like I needed to go to the hospital , baby showed no signs of distress . Everything ended up being normal and healthy. I had to sign a waiver and meet with CPS to leave the hospital after not wanting to stay there for the standard number of days . Also having to constantly say no to all the newborn interventions like hearing tests and immunizations was distressing . I have Medicaid and found a great midwife , but unfortunately cannot afford the $2,500, copay that Medicaid will not cover . If I’m on Medicaid to begin with my financial resources are already very limited . Now I feel my only option, is a free birth. I want an unmedicated , no intervention birth . I feel my option to be somewhat of a free birth . I’m not against the medical system , it has its place and purpose , but not for routine childbirth. I have a birth pool and stool which have helped in the past , and am reading the “ the birthing handbook” to improve my awareness . I will be doing somewhat routine prenatal screenings , and a postnatal checkup through the medical system , to ensure the health of my baby, and I . I’m looking for someone to help encourage, and support me in my home through my birthing experience for a small fee . Thank you.

I’m planning on having a home birth unless a spot opens up at a birth center I’m on a waitlist for. We will pay whatever we need to because we are paying out of pocket with medishare. I am a Christian and very holistic so I would love a midwife that is the same. I am planning to do everything natural unless I can’t.
