Feeling discouraged
Good morning, ladies. I'm sorry if this is long, but I need somewhere to vent!
So- up until this past week I've felt empowered, informed, educated, and excited about attempting a trial of labor and hopefully a VBAC.
About a month ago, my OB said "yes, I am supportive of you trying for a VBAC, as long as it's before 39 weeks." I left there with the intention of never going back. She knew my strong desire for a VBAC. My cesarean was due to failure to progress after trying for 30 some hours and not getting past 5cm.
So, I decided to try visiting a Midwife that was recommended to me by a fellow VBAC mom. She gave me the same statement. As long as it's before a certain number of weeks (this time it was before 40 weeks).
I am having a very healthy pregnancy with no complications. My first pregnancy was healthy/normal as well and I was pressured into an induction at 41w2d.
Any insight? My mom (an RN), said to go back to my original OB who I loved aside from this disagreement, and just refuse to schedule a c-section unless medically necessary.
What would you do? Thanks for getting this far. 
Re: Feeling discouraged
What does the midwife practice do after 40 weeks? Transfer your care to an OB so you can have a RCS? Transfer you to an OB who will oversee a VBAC up until 42 weeks?
Honestly, I'd keep looking. There must be some one out there who happily waits
Is there only one OB at your office? There are several at mine and the one I saw at 38 weeks with my 2nd pregnancy told me to schedule my csection for the following week. I was very upset but reluctantly did and saw a different OB a few days later for
