Birth Consultants

Sorting through all the available information in just nine short months is a major challenge. You need to think about so many different things. Researching your insurance coverage, choosing a place and primary practitioner, knowing what the implications of those choices are and who else you might want to include in your birth team can be a daunting task. One way to save time and effort is to work with a birth consultant. They will help you clarify your goals and direct you to resources that will be compatible with them. Parents find out that they have more options than they thought. They then have safer, more satisfying births. We suggest that you consider doing preconception planning but any time before birth would benefit any family.

See alphabetical listings for professional birth consultants below. Please contact the practitioner directly to schedule an appointment or if you have any questions about preconception planning, birthing options and more. Be sure to let them know BirthLink sent you!

"Imagine what might happen if the majority of women emerged from their labor beds (or not beds) with a renewed sense of the strength and power of their bodies, and of their capacity for ecstasy through giving birth. When enough women realize that birth is a time of great opportunity to get in touch with their true power, and when they are willing to assume responsibility for this, we will reclaim the power of birth and help move technology where it belongs--in the service of birthing women, not as their master."
- Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom, Christiane Northrup, MD
