I plan to give birth in the prisma health system. I don't really have a budget set I don't even know if I can afford it yet or what it may cost. I was wanting to do a water birth but I'm experiencing high blood pressure so that's probably not possible but I'd like to stick to a natural birth IF possible

I am looking for a midwife or even 2, an doula possibly, and a lactation consultant to guide me through all of the specifics of a home birth and what it all entails! I want to do a home birth (we live in an apartment as well) so bad, but am also nervous of the risks it might come with. My husband and I live 5 minutes from a University of Michigan hospital, and I have an OB. My pregnancy has gone as perfect as it can, and baby is completely healthy and has absolutely no issues! I’m hoping to at least talk to a midwife at first to decide for sure that a home birth is right for me and my baby girl! If my husband and I decide it is for sure what we want then I want to move forward in doing a home birth with a midwife and maybe even a doula?… my husband is completely on board with the home birth idea as well and is super supportive of any route I choose to go! I want to make my dream home birth happen! So I don’t know the price range of what we want to be in, but if our insurance helps us out which I think it should, we can be pretty flexible! I’m not completely sure what the price range is for a midwife and doula either, but I’m definitely going to do some research and see what a reasonable budget is! I’m hoping to find someone patient, takes their time (doesn’t rush the delivery unless medically needed), is soft spoken when needed, and is bubbly and positive! My husband and I are Christians as well, but either way it isn’t a make or break type of thing! I’m flexible with that type of thing! My birth plan is obviously I want to do a home birth if I possibly can, I want to go unmedicated, I want the lights to be on, but dimmed and at my place the lighting is perfect for the amount of light I want to have, I want/need a calm and peaceful environment because I can get stressed easily if the environment is chaotic and rushed, I want to maybe have music playing in the background just to have a peaceful labor, I want to move around as much as possible while laboring, I am very open to cervical checks to see how much I’m dilated as well as checking baby girl’s heart rate on a Doppler, I love encouragement and talking (any sort of fun or easy going conversations is such a great way to help me get through contractions), if i can have pictures and videos taken here and there I would love to get some taken to remember those moments, I’m not exactly sure what position I want to give birth in but I’m thinking on my back on my own bed like normal or sitting up a bit on my bed as well, and I would love to have my husband cut the cord and be as involved as possible in the birth of he wants to be! This birth plan is long and specific, but if it doesn’t go exactly to plan I’m flexible as long as we are both healthy! I’m also not sure if it’s still possible being in an apartment but I really hope it can be! The walls are pretty sound proof:) I am so excited for this journey and I am looking forward to hopefully making my dream home birth a reality!

1. home, 2. I am not sure of our budget we are open to seeing various options out there, 3.I am currently pregnant with my first baby and am exploring care options. I do not have a provider that I regularly see, and I am interested in establishing care with a midwife. I would love to plan for a home birth. I experience significant anxiety, and I know that being in my home environment would provide the calm and sense of safety I need for both myself and my baby to support a positive birth experience. I am also interested in the option of laboring and or birthing in water. (want natural birth) We do have a deep bathtub at home, but I am also open to using a birthing pool if recommended. For my first appointment, I am also in need of a Pap smear and breast exam. Ideally, I am hoping to find a midwife who can both assist with a home birth and provide prenatal care through office visits. I am located in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Thank you so much for your time. I would love to learn more about your services and availability.
