Baby struggling with reflux , 5 weeks, king of Prussia, night support

Home preferably Unsure My wife would like to give birth at home

I’m looking to have my first all natural birth for my 2nd baby.

First baby, giving birth at a hospital, planning to go unmedicated, budget is 2,500.

I plan on giving birth at a hospital. I’m still unsure of my budget and I would like to do medication free this birth. I used epidural for my last pregnancy and still felt everything.

We are expecting our first baby, and I will be 37 at the time of delivery. We are planning to deliver in a hospital, either at Abington Hospital (Jefferson Health) or St. Luke’s in Spinnerstown/Quakertown. Since this is our first baby, we really don’t know exactly what to expect, and I’m looking for a doula who can provide both emotional and physical support throughout labor and delivery, as well as help advocate for me and my wants and needs. My partner is amazing and incredibly supportive, but I also know that when emotions are high, it may be difficult for either of us to clearly communicate our wishes, ask the right questions, or advocate for ourselves without becoming overly emotional or confrontational. I would love to have someone experienced in the room who can help us navigate those moments, explain our options, remind us of our preferences, and help us feel confident in our decisions without taking over or speaking for us. I would also really value hands-on labor support. I would like to attempt labor without an epidural initially, mostly because I don’t know what to expect from the pain and want to see how I handle it. I have a pretty high pain tolerance (or at least I like to think I do!), and I’d love a doula who can encourage me, help me work through contractions, and use techniques such as massage, positioning, counter-pressure, breathing, or anything else that may help with discomfort. At the same time, I want someone who will support me if I reach the point where I decide I want an epidural. I’m looking for encouragement to keep going when I need it, but also someone who will remind me that there is absolutely no failure in changing my plan if that’s what I need. Basically, I want someone who can help me push through when I’m capable of doing so, but also recognize when I’ve had enough and support whatever decision I make. Before hiring someone, we would love to meet either virtually or in person so we can make sure we feel comfortable with each other and that our personalities are a good fit. Once labor begins, we would want our doula to meet us at the hospital and stay with us through the birth and immediate delivery period. Once our baby is here, your job is done! 😊 We are really looking for someone who can help us feel supported, informed, calm, and confident through the labor and delivery experience while still allowing us to experience it as a family and make our own decisions.

First-time parents seeking an experienced newborn night nurse/care specialist or postpartum doula to provide overnight support for our baby girl during the first 6–8 weeks after birth (starting late September 2026). Schedule is flexible, likely around 10 PM to 7 AM. We are looking for someone with extensive newborn experience who can provide expert overnight care, assist with feeding, soothing, and sleep routines, and offer guidance and reassurance to new parents. CPR certification, excellent references, and up-to-date vaccinations preferred.

This is our first baby and I would like to try to give birth naturally in the hospital (St. Luke's Anderson in Easton) and delay getting an epidural (if at all- a needle in my back freaks me out) so i can move around more until the baby is in the proper position for delivery. I am looking for a doula with the experience to coach me on how to breathe and move my body to minimize pain and keep me (and my husband) calm and focused throughout the process. The initial plan for pain management will be guided movement and nitrous. I would expect to need a doula for at least 1 day with some communication ahead of time to help me prep mentally and physically. Our budget is ~$500-850 but depending on the services, may be willing to pay more.

I would like to have a water birth at home, be able to move and hope to be IV free as I get very irritated by it in my skin. I am open to a hospital birth as I've had one previous but wasn't happy with the outcome of my last birth. Not quite sure on budget yet.

I am looking for extra in any support that I can at the moment I’m currently going through a divorce and my husband is not going to be a part of any of the process or the babies life. I plan to give birth at a hospital. I’m not sure what my budget is right now as I am new to all of this so I don’t know where it ranges and also I don’t have a birth plan because I’m not sure what that’s supposed to look like this is all very new to me and I’m under a lot of anxiety and I don’t even know where to start.

birth in hospital, budget TBD, unsure of health plan

- Hospital birth. I’m planning to deliver at a hospital in the Lehigh Valley/Bethlehem, PA area. - Ideally around $1,200–$2,500 depending on services included, though I’m open to discussing options and packages. - I’m hoping for a calm, supportive, evidence-based birth experience with strong advocacy and emotional support. I would like to stay flexible while aiming for as low-intervention of a birth as safely possible. Pain management options are still being considered, and I value education, informed decision-making, movement/position support during labor, partner involvement, and postpartum recovery guidance. This is my first baby (a girl, due September 2026), and I would especially appreciate support navigating labor, hospital communication, breastfeeding initiation, and the immediate postpartum period. - Certified doula preferred Experience supporting first-time mothers and hospital births Familiarity with gestational diabetes/pregnancy monitoring preferred Calm, reassuring, collaborative communication style Comfortable working alongside medical providers and advocating respectfully 3+ years of experience preferred, but personality fit is also very important Bonus if familiar with South Asian/Indian family dynamics or cultural considerations
