I plan to give birth at Sentara in Woodbridge but my OB’s office is in Stafford. I have Medicaid. I don’t have a birth plan but I’d like help creating one. I’ve had past miscarriages and this pregnancy has been healthy, but lonely and scary. I’d like the support of a doula for many reasons.

This is our second baby. Our birth was beautiful last time. I was laughing the baby out. But I had an epidural. I really want to try to avoid an epidural this time because It made part of my thigh be asleep for several months after. It didnt impact my functionality but it demonstrated to me the risks. Also my baby's birth weight dropped and we had to do formula right away which I know could be from the fluid. But I have to have a plan. Like a breathing plan. I will be giving birth at united memorial hospital. I have no idea what types of services we could afford. Perhaps a 1:2 intensive breathing and mindset class before.

Help with birth preparation, labor & delivery & lactation before/after birth. Accepts Medicaid

I would like to give birth at home but most likely I would have to give birth in a hospital due to gestational diabetes. My budget is hopefully less than a few hundred dollars unless covered by Medicaid if given a provider that accepts Medicaid. I would like to be able to go into labor naturally without having to be induced early(doctors like to induce women with gestational diabetes) I would also like to be able to freely move around as I've never had that freedom given I was induced and also recieved the epidural due to being in pain with both of my children.

My active duty fiance and I plan to get married mid-February, 2026, and I will then have Tricare Prime health insurance as his dependent. My estimated budget is whatever Tricare Prime will cover for a certified doula. My birth plan has not been created yet.

we plan to give birth at Bon Secour St. Mary's hospital. We're first time parents but are a little older (32 & 40) and would love some extra help in the delivery room and after birth. So far we've had very few complications and are hoping to have a natural birth with an epidural for pain management with very few if any friends and family around.
