Hello!

My husband and I are wanting to try for baby #2 within the next year and I was hoping I could get come recommendations for an OB or CNM that accepts Tricare and is open to me having a VBAC. My previous OB said I am a good candidate because I progressed as I should, but my daughter was transverse and not coming out the 'rabbit hole' as she put it. haha! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

I had my first c-section in July, so I haven't had a VBAC yet.  However, my doctor was already bringing up the possibility at my 6 month follow-up so I know she's down for it.  Her name is Dr. Ferebee and she's at Greenbrier Obstetrics and Gynecology.  I'm not sure if they take tri-care.  I've also heard good things about the midwifery center at DePaul hospital.

I'm a patient at the Midwifery Center through DePaul and they are truly wonderful. I have a CS with DS and they have been phenomenal with helping me reach my goal- I'm due in May. I have started many of the free classes that DePaul offers (yes, FREE) and I couldn't say enough positive things about my experience there. They're the only hospital/practice in the area that has a 90% VBAC success rate so I would HIGHLY recommend checking your resources.

I recently had my daughter at DePaul . This was my first delivery and natural child birth. This is the most amazing practice. Dr. Golpira is my OB but a MW delivered my baby. They do have the lowest CS in the area and only pursue interventions when necessary. I highly recommend their practice. They do what is most safe for you and the baby. If you want a NB great, if not they support that too. They do highly favor vaginal births as long as there is no complications. A friend of mine is delivering in the midwifery center and has tricare but not sure if she has prime. The office staff is great! I think you would enjoy them.
