Find Birth Doula Jobs Near Upland, CA

Giving birth at El Camino in Mountain View. We are hoping for a vaginal birth with an initial plan to avoid an epidural. Budget is up to 2,500

This is my second pregnancy and I’m having twins. My first labor was very long and I was rejected from the hospital 5 separate times. I really felt like I didn’t have any health care people advocating for me and because I’d never given birth and was in a boat load of pain I didn’t know how to advocate for myself. I thought going into my second pregnancy I would know more of what was going happen since I’d done it before but since finding out I’m having twins a few months ago I feel like I’m back to being in the dark since it’s so different with twins. I’m not sure what my budget is yet since I’ve never had a doula so I don’t know what it usually costs. I’ll be delivering at banner desert hospital. I would really like to have a vaginal birth if at all possible and I feel like having someone that is familiar with the process would help me achieve that.

Delivering at banner desert in Mesa Arizona. I’m not sure on a budget or how much doulas are. My birth plan is to just be in a calm supportive environment for as long as I can.

We plan to give birth at hospital. Need support during birth with relaxation, exercises, breathing etc along the journey from contraction to childbirth.

I am located in Fremont and am looking for a labor/delivery as well as postpartum doula to help in the later afternoon/evening time frame. This will be our second child and could use the help to watch our second child during the time we spend with our firstborn. I will be delivering at San Leandro Kaiser and am using Kaiser’s doula benefit for around a week or two post Partum.

Hospital I’m not sure We are figuring out our birth plan.

1. Hospital 2. $750-$900 3. Hospital birth, no-epidural/natural preferred. Movement, position changes, and natural comfort measures/techniques. Open to medical interventions only if medically necessary. Minimal vaginal exams. Prayer, worship music, scripture (Christian faith). Flexible pushing positions, spontaneous pushing preferred, skin-skin, delayed cord clamp, plan to breastfeed, prefer short hospital stay, limited unnecessary interruption to allow rest & bonding, baby vaccines/medications TBD.

1. I am not 100% set on a hospital yet, I am going on prenatal tours at a couple hospitals this upcoming weekend. 2. Under $1,400. 3. Pre-labor I’d like the birthing process to start naturally, with water breaking on its own. Prefer no induction if baby is good and not medically necessary. During labor I would like to stay away from medications, no epidural, and try pain management such as bath/shower, massage, counter pressure during contractions, tens, breathing techniques. If medically necessary I am open to an epidural if I need an induction. During birth, I would like to feel the urge to push and listen to my body without feeling pressured by doctors or nurses in to pushing if i’m “taking too long.” I would love warm compress on my perineum during pushing to help reduce my chances of tearing. I want to avoid episiotomy, forceps, and vacuum. IF a C section is medically necessary, I’d like a moment with someone from my support team to process prior to surgery, my significant other with me during the procedure, skin-to-skin as soon as possible, and for my significant other to remain with the baby at all times to consent to vaccines and medications the baby might need. After birth I would like delayed cord clamping, skin-to-skin as soon as possible for “golden hour”, I’d prefer to feel the urge to push the placenta out naturally without any force from the doctor and I would like to see my placenta before discarding, I’d prefer all treatments with baby to be in the room with me or have my significant other or doula to have eyes on the baby, prefer to breastfeed instead of formula, not quite sure how long to wait for the first sponge bath. I’d love to hear advice from my doula in my birth plan, I would love to learn advantages and disadvantages of what I have in mind so far, I am open to feedback! For postpartum, I’d prefer limited visitors, ice packs, heavy duty pads and dermaplast numbing spray or whatever the hospital has that will help ease the pain down there, Id prefer to leave the hospital after 24hrs if it is not medically necessary for baby or myself to stay longer.

I plan to deliver at Stanford ValleyCare hospital in Pleasanton. This is my second pregnancy. My estimated budget is $3,000. Mostly looking for birthing support especially since I have anxiety that gets triggered when I don't have much control over a situation. I would like to labor for as long as possible without medication. For my first delivery I labored naturally until I was 8 cm dilated before I chose to get an epidural. I may need postpartum doula support, especially with breastfeeding, since it was a struggle the first time around. A night nanny may also be needed since I have mental health issues that become exacerbated with lack of sleep.
