First baby. Planning on birthing center or possibly home. Need help/ guidance on what to do before, birthing, and post partum

Second birth in Maple Grove, Minnesota. I will be getting induced, likely due to Lupus. I will opt for an epidural. Looking for birth support, education to prepare, and support for my husband. Looking for someone post-birth to help me get the baby into a good routine. Budget up to 2,000. Start date- anytime. Birth around February 15 at Maple Grove Hospital. Open to hours and days; flexible. Aetna insurance.

I am hoping to have a unmedicated birth likely at the Mother Baby Center or Twin Cities Birth Center. We were hoping for a home birth but discovered it’s a bit of an insurance challenge. I plan to use TRICARE Reserve Select insurance so hope to find a doula that works with that. Still defining my birth plan, but would love for it to be unmedicated, minimal intervention…allowing my body to do its natural thing and be empowered by kind supportive humans. :)

Soon after our delivery date we will likely want 3 week nights / week of overnight help. We just started looking at this, so we aren’t sure what certifications, rates, etc. we want, but we are expecting to book ~30 nights of time, at hopefully a deal since we would be booking so many hours. I think we mostly just want baby care, but maybe some sleep training, and might want to add occasional cooking / cleaning dishes later (curious how the rates differ with the additional services)

First pregnancy and birth at 41 years old. Need someone who can support and older mother. I plan to give birth in a hospital and want to do an epidural but have some fear due to prior health issues. I would love 1-2 meetings prior to delivery and support in hospital during birthing. Would love to spend $1000 or less.

Hospital. Not sure on budget. I do not know what my birth plan is.

I plan to give birth at Lakeview Hospital with a Midwife.

My current plan is to deliver at Saint Francis Hospital, but I am open to other suggestions. I heard the Scheduler say that they are going through a lot of changes which makes me nervous. Being in the healthcare field, I know that patient care gets overlooked when these changes are happening. I do not know the average cost of Doula services. Am I able to use an HSA plan? My requirements for the provider is that they have assisted in 20 or more births. I would like them to be a good teacher as I like to learn about the process. I have done one of my physical therapy clinicals as a physical therapist and pelvic health and would like to understand what my body is going through from a personal perspective. My birth plan is in the process of being created. Ideally, as little intervention as possible. I don’t want to rule out use of pain medication‘s as I have no idea how I’ll feel on the day of labor, however, most of the people I know who have gotten an epidural look back in regret it due to it stalling and /or slowing their labor. I need somebody who can take the responsibility off of my husband too help me navigate those decisions on the day of. I just want him to be able to be present and help me.

I'd like to have some help during labor. This is my first child and I don't know what to expect or know any pain relief methods. I plan to give birth at a hospital and would like to avoid an epidural if possible.

I plan to give birth in a hospital, but hope to have minimal interventions unless absolutely medically necessary. This is my first pregnancy via IVF after dealing with infertility, and I would like someone who is sensitive to that.

Hospital birth but would like to keep low intervention and as natural as possible. First time parent so looking to see how much this might cost and if it’s something we can afford. Would like to labor at home as long as possible and then will go to Maple Grove fo delivery.

I plan to give birth in a hospital with a midwife. Estimated budget is $500. I want an unmedicated birth

I am living in the Elk River area. I would like to give birth at a baby center that supports water births. This is my 2nd pregnancy. I would like someone who is calm and energy is positive.

I would prefer a child birth center or home birth. I would like to birth in natural positions and use gravity to help with pushing. I would prefer female staff to be in the room during birthing process. I would prefer no epidural, and use natural home remedies for pain.

I'm giving birth in a hospital and hope to have a natural birth. This is my second child. I had breastfeeding struggles with the first and would love someone who can help with that. I will be 35 at time of birth. If the doula wouldn't mind watching the baby for a few hours so I could get sleep after birth that would be amazing. Someone who is Christian would also be a plus. I'm hoping to find someone who also works with my insurance
