I'm in Milwaukee and due January 18th!!! This is my first pregnancy and hoping for a UC.

 

I've been seeing an OB throughout this pregnancy for prenatal care and tried to switch to a MW for a home waterbirth around 31 weeks.  Unfortunately, the MW that I had been in contact with changed her mind about taking me on as a client because I was unable to secure a "back up" OB that was willing to work as an adjunct to her care in the event of a hospital transfer.  And I couldn't find another MW in the area that didn't require their fee paid in full up front, which my husband and I simply cannot afford.

 

SOOOO....I purchased a birthing tub and am hoping for a UC at home...although, my husband isn't as gung-ho on the concept as I am.

Wow mama! How are you doing pregnancy wise? You will do great.

The pregnancy has been great .... except for the heartburn :P

 

My husband and I found out we were expecting soon after being relocated to Milwaukee for his job (we are both from Indiana), so circumstances have been a bit more stressful than I would have liked.  But, regardless, we are closing in on 39 weeks!!!

I was wondering what you need in WI to get a BC and SSN after an UC.
