I work in Newport but live about 45 minutes from there.
I know there are at least a few Mothering mamas floating around Rhode Island!!
I am a prenatal yoga teacher and doula and I recently provided labor support for a Navy family (who have also become good friends of mine). There's was a hospital birth at Newport Hospital - very positive, peaceful, natural child birth with a very open-minded Navy MD.
I don't know much about homebirth in RI....as far as I can tell it is pretty deep underground. I've been researching it passively for the last several months while we were TTC....and now that I am expecting...I will be researching more intently. I will definitely share anything I learn with you!
As far as LLL....I haven't been involved yet....but I know a couple of people who are and it seems to be a strong presence.
Good luck!! I think you will love Newport...it's a really fun place!
