[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How far in advance do women contact midwives to be evaluated for a home birth or birth center birth? I just found out I am 6 weeks. [/quote] I went to Birthcare at 12 weeks. They like to see patients for the first time at 10-12. The initial evaluation is mostly based on age and past pregnancies/deliveries; you can always be risked out later if the situation warrants it. (A friend’s baby was breech until 38 weeks and the Birthcare midwives were getting her set up with the one OB in NoVa who does vaginal breech deliveries when the baby flipped, so she ended up being born at home as intended.)
