Stuttgart question

[SleepyMamaBear]

I am not in Germany, i am in the US, but my best friend from elementary school IS in Germany on a military base is Stuttgart so i thought i would ask some questions from you lovely ladies for her until she finds her way here to MDC.
She JUST found out she is PG.
so my questions... good midwives/doulas in the area?
good birth houses/best place for a natural birth?
good pediatrician recommendations in the area?
preferably all speak english, as she doesnt speak German.
Thank you so much in advance.
also, anyone want to befriend the most wonderful lady i know? she is so far from me, and i cant be there to physically hug her, but i am sure she could use some MDC mamas around her!
Thanks.

Hi!
Your friend might be delighted to know that there is a very active LLL group meeting the first Friday of every month at the Red Cross centre there on Panzer in Böblingen. It's US military affiliated, and they'd be the best place to start in terms of questions for doulas/midwives, etc. They'd be able to let her know what would be covered on the Tri-care health care plan.
She can contact this LLL group at:
lllstuttgart@yahoo.com

I am in Stuttgart itself, but she is welcome to e-mail me (hollycrand@yahoo.com) with any questions or just to say hello. I live close to Kelley Barracks (but am not miitary or DoD affiliated...but am American and do attend the LLL meetings).

Hope this helps...
