looking for a midwife to support my vba2c

[emconnell]

i never thought it would be this difficult, but i am having so much trouble finding someone to support my vba2c.  i started with family docs, but they wanted to transfer me to an ob.  so i switched to a nurse-midwife who was willing to support me, but her medical partner wants to break my waters at 41 weeks (both my sections were for going to 42 weeks without progress).  i just want to find someone willing to be patient & not pressure me or use scare tactics or a bajillion interventions!   it's becoming clear to me--from talking to docs & midwives alike--that my best bet is a homebirth.

im at 31 weeks & i am between care providers.  does anyone  have any experience with this in the wisconsin area?  or does anyone know a midwife willing to travel to support a vba2c?  or does anyone know a spot in the midwest that i could vacation at for however many days to be near a midwife who would support me??

Try Chris Roberts in Dalton.  I do not know if she will come to Madison, but she does have a small birthing clinic.  Here is a website I put together for the medical clinic she is associated with, which is just a few doors down from her birthing clinic.  www.care4uclinic.org

BTW I switched to her at 36 weeks, and my birth with her was wonderful.

You could also check with Cindy Stiepich, the midwife at the Beaver Dam Hospital (which btw has beautiful birthing suites).  Or Dr. Victor Caceres in Beaver Dam.  Both have very hands-off approaches to childbirth, but they may be limited by insurance requirements.  And, the hospital is very easy to get to off of 151.
