We plan to give birth at SM Christus Hospital. I would like a calm, private environment, with minimal staff and no students. I want a natural water rupture and a partial epidural with the ability to change positions and listen to what my body is telling me. I would like to deliver the placenta on my own, without any tugging. No pitocin, cervical exams, or episiotomy. I would like support in sticking with my birth plan and advice when it comes to altering the plan. It is important to me to follow my intuition.
I’m eating to give birth at home. My estimated budget would be around $1,000. This is my second time giving birth and I want to be more comfortable. I would like to do a water birth for this pregnancy.
Looking for a doula that’s covered by Medicaid. I will be giving birth at a birthing center in Austin. However my first born will be at home with my sister and looking for extra support for her while I’m in labor. Home is located in San Marcos.
I plan to give birth at a hospital, I would like to use as little medical intervention as possible. No pain meds, delayed cord clamping. I am high risk but only due to my age, 42. For postpartum we are looking for light cleaning and help with meals. We prefer a provider who has experience advocating for Black mothers. Also a woman of Christian faith is preferred but not required.

Hi! I am looking for a doula that can support me in a low intervention birth at Ascension Seton Hays Birthing Center (Kyle). I was originally going through Austin Area Birthing Center, but I'm considering using my OBGYN (who I hardly know...) and birthing at a hospital in case of emergency. I really need someone who can advocate for a low intervention natural birth for me, and I am hoping to speak with someone who can inform me of better OBs in our area... some friends told me doulas usually know the OBs in the area and can advise who to use and avoid. I would even change hospitals if advised. Thank you!

Hi I’m Caroline! I’m 27 years old, due November 25, an army wife, and this baby will be my first. I am nervous about a few aspects of birth-I’d like someone who can help guide me and tell me my options, help me labor as much as possible at home, and can help advocate for me in the hospital while helping me make informed decisions. Unsure about whether I want natural or epidural; I would prefer natural at this point but I’ve never experienced birth pain before so I want the ability to be flexible. Since I’m an army spouse, I’d need someone who can join me on post at BAMC. Based on other friends experiences, my expected budget is somewhere around $1,200. As far as birth plans go, I don’t know much since I’m still very early on. I do hope to labor as much as possible at home as I’m pretty scared of hospitals. I’d love to hear what some options are for birth plans.
I plan to give birth in San Antonio. I do not have a planned hospital or an OBGYN for the area but would prefer to give birth at university health or Methodist hospital. My budget would be approximately $1550 but hoping tricare covers majority. I would like to give birth naturally without an epidural. Would like a female provider. I have Tricare select

A birthing center Low cost 👀 My birth plan is to sneeze and the baby just slides right out. Haha just kidding. I’m not too sure on my birth plan. This isn’t my first pregnancy and I went through the traditional obgyn/hospital route with my first and I hated it. Never thought they were listening to me and I was induced and I just want to do it and experience labor for my last baby. If that makes sense. I need guidance
