Ive had 6 back surgeries and chronic pain, and will be unable to have an epidural. Im planning on natural childbirth with pain medicine up until a 6, and then nitrous after that. But im looking for someone to help me with pain management techniques and to coach me through the process. In wanting to do my best to avoid an emergency c-section. I dont have a birth plan, im planning to give birth at Integris Baptist. Dr. Mitchell West is my OB. They said they will have to take hin early due to my history of high BP and age (im 37). I currently dont have any idea how much a birth coach would cost, im trying to see how much it would be. I do have limited funds.

I have soonercare. I want a VBAC. I’m 41. I want to deliver at mercy in Oklahoma City.

1. Hospital 2. $3000 3. To be as comfortable & stress-free as possible. I do not like the idea of Pitocin and all kinds of medications that may affect my baby. I am not opposed to an epidural if pain is severe.

I plan to give birth at Mercy Hospital in North OKC. I am wanting an unmediated natural birth with no induction unless it is absolutely medically necessary. I am wanting my doula to support me in positioning and proper breathing techniques to alleviate pain during labor. I want the cord to be white and not pulsating before my husband clips it. I want the placenta to be delivered on its own. I want to labor at home as long as possible before heading to the hospital. I have Tricare Prime and have been told a doula will be covered.
