Can you please help me find a natural minded Pediatrician in Columbus, OH east side? Or a lovely midwife to point me in the right direction?
Marlene W. replied:
I never had to use a pediatrician, thankfully, so I don't know personally. But the CHOICE or BORN midwives should know. My dd uses Dr. Ben Almasanu & Dr. Katheleen Costlow in Gahanna 614-471-0652. Not sure how natural minded they are though, but she likes them.

Ali Carine. Not sure if she's east but worth the drive if not.

Dr. Sant at Whole Kids Pediatrics

Dr. Sant & NP Adrienne Shesky at Whole Kids are AMAZING!!!
Jessica R. replied:
Dr. Sant is wonderful..but does not accept any state insurance if that is a factor in any consideration. All of the other physicians that have been mentioned in this stream do on a limited basis..OSU accepts almost everything by way of private or state insurances, either as in or out of network.
Thank You gift for my midwife?
Hi Ladies,
My EDD is Dec 18th and I would like to get my CNM a nice thank you gift especially considering the birth could be very close...

I love this site: http://shop.cafepress.com/midwife They have t-shirts, bumper stickers, tote bags, posters, etc. If you are wanting something that expresses midwifery ideals...

Jess, Check out midwifery today's website--they have beautiful gifts (jewelry, books, etc) most midwives would truly appreciate. The jewelry on there is hard to find anywhere else. http://www.midwiferytoday.com/merchant2/merchant.mv I did get my CNM a trinket to place in her office; I did this after talking to some midwives I worked with--they mentioned everything from baby statues to jewelry to food--it really depends on the relationship you have with your midwife I think. :) Wishing you and your family a special Birthed Day!
Does anyone know anything about what is needed to become a midwife? I have decided I want to get my doulas certification after high school, but I might go even further...
Looking for a good place to set up a practice?
Hi Jan,
We only have one home birth midwife left in the Philadelphia and Jersey area near Haddonfield and she is pregnant...
