Faith based, all natural, home birth. Lots of experience wanted and have a budget of 5,000

I would prefer a home birth at the moment but need to do more research on the subject. And the matter of safety. I have only ever been to an ob-gyn once 5 years ago and it was the absolute worst experience of my life. I have a phobia of doctors (I end up shaking/crying, excessive sweating, etc) and do not have good experiences in general from the medical field so going to a hospital for a birth I worry may stress me out to a point where I can’t do this birth myself. I would like as natural of a birth as possible, ideally the only people touching me is myself or my husband unless absolutely necessary. Perhaps laughing gas for pain management if I am struggling. Hospitals don’t typically listen to you when you talk so I have many worries about that. I understand some touching may be necessary and if it become medically necessary then I completely understand. Likely won’t be comfortable with it but can understand stuff happens. I also understand emergencies happen, and sometimes there won’t be time to explain what exactly is happening. In those kinds of events I’d honestly prefer a debrief of what the protocol is well before birth (knowing it may be scary) so that in that situation all a provider needs to do is give me a keyword or phrase and I will know the baseline of what is happening or going to happen. Again I understand not all of the details can be defined beforehand, but having a basic understanding is important to me. As far as budget goes, I really don’t know what to expect. We have blue cross blue shield federal insurance so I’m hoping that will cover the majority of mine and the babies care.

I’m looking for a homebirth Midwife to attend my birth.
