[quote=Anonymous]I had vasa previa last year and delivered at Sibley. I found all of the MFMs and antepartum care at Sibley to be phenomenal. Additionally, the NICU nurses and doctors (who are doctors at both GW and Sibley) are incredible. Sibley would absolutely not accept you as a patient unless you had a c-section scheduled for 32 weeks+ and they are prepared to care for babies at that stage. I was admitted at 32 weeks and ended up delivering (emergency c-section) at 33+6 due to a bleed. They were well equipped to deal with the emergency situation and also informed me of the possibility of going into labor early when I was admitted. The Sibley MFMs have a lot of experience with vasa previa and 100% follow the protcol for the condition that is put out by the International Vasa Previa Foundation (admission around 32 weeks and delivery by 35 weeks). Let me know if you have any other questions - I know that vasa is a very, very nerve-racking diagnosis. [/quote]
