[quote=Wally5][quote=Anonymous]Had head down twins and was told I needed a cesarean at Inova Fairfax.  This was a few years ago.  I didn’t know any better and had a cesarean.  Both kids are fine.  I had an ECV and VBAC at GW with baby number 3. When I met with the doctors at GW they said most of their twins attempt a vaginal delivery unless medically indicated for a cesarean.  One of their doctors even does ECVs on breech twin A (success is clearly less)!

Fairfax was more luxurious for sure, but I got better individualized care at GW. [/quote]

This is really helpful- I did some digging yesterday on GW and twins. Got a recommendation for Dr. Steven Ralston at GW MFA. I've just heard that things at GW MFA are a bit chaotic with the midwives practice losing most staff, etc. I may just need to interview a few practices with privileges at FFX, GW and VHC and see who's willing to do what. Obviously with twins I'm sort of just along for the ride, but good to know in advance who has expertise in twin vaginal births.[/quote]
