[quote=Anonymous]First pregnancy here. I'm 15w and a patient at Capital Women's Care. A friend of mine who's a physician (not an OB) recommended that I look into getting a midwife in addition to an OB for the birth. The way he put it was: the midwife is there to make sure you have a good birth experience, the OB is there to make sure the baby is ok. We will deliver at Inova Fairfax. And I don't believe CWC offers midwifery services. So, is it possible to find a midwife who will work with an existing OB practice? Are midwives only for women who want to do a "natural" childbirth? (Not me...give me the drugs.) As you can tell, I know nothing about how to come up with a birth plan or the right provider mix. Any help would be appreciated![/quote]
