Hello ladies... anyone in the OC/LA/SD area who has a doula they can recommend?

bump!

Lol, thanks! I did find a few, but they were a lot more expensive than I had budgeted for (around $1k, and I was thinking $500-$600). Oh well!

@HabesBabe: Aww bummer. You can always try calling Loma Linda School of Public Health and see if they have any doula recs.

I paid $500 for a doula who just received her certification. She had 6 births under her belt prior to me (not counting her own two birth experiences as a mother). Six births isn't a lot, but I was comfortable with her personality, demeanor, and training... And I didn't want to spend too much either.
So for your price range, try to see if you can get someone who needs certification hours or just graduated. I asked my OB office for a referral. You could try http://www.dona.org/mothers/find_a_doula.php if you haven't already.
Hope this helps!
