[quote=Anonymous][quote=Wally5]Hi there: I'm an advanced maternal age mom of 1 in Alexandria with twins on the way toward the end of the year. I had postpartum pre-eclampsia with my first but the pregnancy/birth itself was complication-free. I delivered with Physicians & Midwives at Inova Alexandria with my first and while I appreciated the midwife-heavy practice and was generally happy with the practice's care, I wasn't crazy about Inova Alexandria, and would prefer a hospital with a real nursery and probably a NICU with twins on the way. I would also love to attend a practice that won't assume from the get-go that a C-section is the way to go. If I must go the C-section route, that's fine, but the idea of recovering from major surgery with 2 infants and a 4 yr old makes me want to do everything I can to go the traditional route.

If any twin parents have recommendations on great experiences with certain practices/hospitals, I'd love to hear them. I was very focused on having a second child, but I must admit that the blessing of planning for #2 and #3 at once is overwhelming! Thanks.[/quote]

Only twin mom I know who had a vaginal delivery was at GW[/quote]
