[quote=Anonymous]OP here!  Thank you for all the responses again!  I feel like I am having so much support!  Meeting with by OB this Wednesday.

I did research a little on potential OB's I could contact for second opinion and also doulas.  As for OB, it sounds like Dr. Tchabo is nearing retirements and does not deliver as much anymore (and other doctor's in rotation with him is not VBAC friendly).  Dr. Gonzales in MAnasses and Dr. Ayoub in Leesburg seems to be two other options I can consider.    I did look into birthing centers and midwifries, but we are not comfortable with birthing in non-hospital setting, or tranferring and just getting the OB who is available at the moment in case of emergency.  Although I am still hesitant to switch OB... I think I will have to make the call on stay/leave after this talk because I am over 23 weeks now.  If I end up in c section for any reason, I wouldn't trust anyone more than my current OB.  I do know that baby and I will be in good hands with him.  Not a single negative review/tought among his patients about him - I just hope that he had more VBAC records and less in favor of interventions! But again I haven't had a serious talk with him, so I will have to wait and see.

I will ask all the questions and report back for sure!  I have a super long list of questions now haha.  Once I talk to my OB this week, I think I will proceed with further actions.

PP - Can I ask you if you delivered at Fairfax or somewhere else?

Does anyone have recommendations on any specific doulas that have worked at Fairfax hospital?
