[quote=Anonymous]OP, something else to consider re: switching to a midwife is that sometimes interventions are indicated. So, ideally, you want a provider who will minimize unnecessary ones but also recommend ones that are needed. Hopefully you won't need any interventions, many women don't. I birthed with a midwife in a hospital, and ended up with more interventions than planned, but did have a vaginal birth. I didn't second-guess her for a minute, and it's probably the thing I'm happiest about in choosing a midwife, in retrospect (healthy baby aside). You'll get more information from your OB and potential doulas, obviously, but I do think it's worth considering that things may not go as planned, and how that might play out with different providers. Either way, good luck![/quote]
