VBA2C in metroi Detroit, MI area?

[detroitgirl77]

I already posted in the tribal areas, but I am having trouble finding a provider who will work with me on a vaginal delivery after 2 cections. It doesn't help that dh is totally not on board with what I would like to do. If anyone has any suggestions/recommendations, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

i might have a connection who would know... let me email him and get back to you

he didn't have any names, unfortunately. he said

"Anyway, I'm assuming she has tried Oakwood (close to Dearborn), or St. Joe's Ann Arbor. I doubt the U would do this, but they do have a very active midwifery program, so who knows. I'm sorry but I came up empty."

have you tried st. joes or u of m?

You might consider The Birth Place birthing centre on Goddard Road in Taylor. The midwives are very good at calming nervous partners, and I understand they accept VBAC's.

I called Oakwood last night and they said that they would allow it, but I would have to find a willing provider. I wouldn't mind a birth center at all, but dh feels more comfortable in a hospital setting. I just contacted ican of ann arbor, so I'm hoping I can get some more leads. I will be calling a bunch of places in the morning at a more reasonable hour, since the bean thinks its fun to have mama wake up at unreasonable hours, lol. I will also try St. Joes and U of M as well.
