I’m also open to paying out of pocket but tricare would be my first pick. 3. This is my second child and the labor with my first was under 4 hours. Birth plan this time would be to labor without an epidural. All other parts of my birth plan I’m open to suggestions. I’d like to labor at home if possible.

I plan to give birth at a hospital. As a backup, I would like to have a home birth. A home birth was my first option but baby had an arrhythmia which is the reason I chose hospital first at this point. I do have medical insurance to cover my hospital birth. I don’t have a preference on medication or epidural as this is my first pregnancy and I don’t want to commit one way or another

I'd like the doula to have the doula certification, fully vaccinated, and a lactation certificate would be a plus.

I would like to try different types of pain management and am open to all if necessary. Ideally I do not want to have an IV so movement is possible. I would like to have delayed chord clamping if possible. Skin to skin and golden hour are important to me. My husband will be in the room and is very kind and attentive.

Hello, I’m pregnant with my 4th child. My last pregnancy was very traumatic and resulted in a C-section due to lack of help from the doctors. I try to live a more holistic life style these days and after becoming aware of the pharmaceutical industry and how they operate in the US. I’m very frightened and would love to work on having a VBAC for this child. I would love to get the information on how your practice works and what all is offered and how insurance would be able to help cover some costs from getting your assistance. -Laurin Hall.
