I'm wondering if anyone has any names of docs/midwives that may attend a VBAC after 2 cesareans in western Washington-preferably the Seattle/Eastside area.
I've had 4 vaginal births, had a cesarean with my now 19 month old due to HELLP at 32w, and ended up having another cesarean with my newborn because of failure to progress (I had PROM, 24 hours of no contractions except with pit and still no progress-baby was very high and her head was off to the side and her hands were by her face. Uncooperative booger
)
Anyway, I'm going to be having at least one more baby, since I already agreed to be a surrogate for my friend again and shes been waiting very patiently (this last baby was an oops!) and we may want one more of our own years from now. I know the risks go up with each cesarean so if I can, I'd definitely like to at least try for a VBAC again-but with this being after 2 cesareans this time, I'm afraid finding a provider will be difficult.
I do know about ICAN and I'll be checking in with them as well, but I thought I'd ask here too
Thanks!
