I've had 2 c-sections. The first one planned and the second was a failed vbac. Ive found a certified professional midwife who's VERY experienced (25+ years) and is willing to take me as a client. I know in my heart that this is the way that I want to go and this particular midwife also had a VBA2C and then ultimately had to have one more c-section afterward so she is not only understanding of the risks but wouldn't hesitate to send me to the hospital if that is needed.
I'm 28 weeks and I have a good connection with her and I'm really looking forward to have the birth I want.
My only hang up is that I need to call my current OB/GYN and tell them that I'm leaving their practice. They already have me scheduled for a c-section for January 10th. Why is it so hard for me to just call and "dump" him?
Anyone have any advice as to what I should say to my OB/GYN? Do I need to tell them that I'm pursuing a home birth? I shouldn't be embarrassed but for some reason it's really hard for me!
