I am looking for doula support during birth and potentially postpartum. My husband and I felt very prepared, we read the bradley method and had been practicing quite a bit for a natural birth. I didn’t think there was a need for a doula because we seemed to be a great team. At our last ultrasound we got news that baby is measuring small and are pushing for induction. Now I feel silly for not hiring a doula sooner. It feels like such a huge gap in communication between us and the doctors even though we have done everything to educate ourselves. I am hoping to find someone that can help fill that gap, help us to feel like we are making informed choices and to support me during labor so I don’t have to rely fully on my husband in case of any complications.

I am currently in my 24th week of pregnancy, and have so far had a smooth pregnancy. My due date is July 13, 2026 and I plan to give birth at St. Peter's hospital in Albany, NY. We are open to budget, but would like to stay under $3,000. I am not sure if I will need a lactation consultant, but wanted to look at options and learn more so I can make an informed decision about it. My birth plan is to ideally be minimally medicated, and not have a full epidural. I would like to be able to get up and walk around, use the bathroom, and switch birthing positions based on what feels comfortable with minimal limitations. I hope to have a vaginal birth and learn more ways to prepare for a safe one.

I’m very interested in planning a home birth and get someone could help near night like two days per week. I would love your support in this special and meaningful time for our family.

I am looking for birthing education. This is my first child and I would like some guidance.

I plan to give birth at home. I already have a midwife. I have 2 toddlers at home as well. I would like to have a water birth. I have an autistic 3 year old daughter and a 2 year old son who might be autistic. I would need help with maintaining schedules and other menial tasks throughout the day. I am also looking for a night nanny to help with said toddlers and the baby throughout the night. My toddlers have been struggling with their sleep schedules and I fear it’ll be twice as hard when the baby arrives.

A night nanny or doula to help with night feedings and changes as well as someone to help with the baby during the day

I plan on a home, water birth. I have insurance that covers doula and midwife’s.

I am currently pregnant with my second child (a boy). My first delivery in short was a series of unfortunate events that ended in a c section. I would to try for a TOLAC/VBAC. My doctors have said I’m a great candidate for it. I plan on giving birth at Baystate in Springfield MA. I am have a lot of anxiety about my birth not only due to the last time but this time around there has been a lot of miss communication and I just don’t want to be worried about everyone being on the same page while trying to have a successful labor. While having an epidural isn’t out of the question or having other medical interventions isn’t out of the question I’d like to just let my body do its thing and labor naturally with alternative pain management methods. I honestly have zero idea what a doula even costs to even know what is reasonable, if it’s covered by insurance etc.
