Do you know of someone willing to do a VBA2C in Los Angeles?

Joy+BabyNumber3 · June 2013

I have been looking and looking and all the leads that I have have come up empty. I have even called places and have been told they do VBA2C on a case by case basis, only to find out when I actually come in, that this is not true.

Does anyone know of an OB in the Los Angeles area that is open to doing this? I'm in Pasadena.

Sorry, I'm in TN. But in a city like LA, I find it hard to believe that there aren't providers willing to do a VBA2C. Contact someone with ICAN and I bet they'll be a great resource! I don't even have a local ICAN chapter, but the regional ICAN people were able to give me some VBAC friendly providers.

Here's the link I found...

Thank you. I sent a message to ICAN today. I hope I'll hear back soon.

I bet you will. I hope you get some answers soon! I know this has got to be stressful. Hang in there and keep us updated.

If you don't hear back for some reason, see if there is an LA facebook group for ICAN. My Seattle group has one, so LA might.

I did find them on Facebook, and sent the message via that...because on the L.A. Page, I couldn't find an e-mail address to write. I hope I hear from them soon. Thanks ladies!

Ugh, that's a bummer. I am planning vba2c and found providers by contacting my local ICAN, googling, and this VERY awesome FB page: VBAMC, VBAC, HBAC (Vaginal birth after one or more c-sections), very empowering page with lots of info. Im sure they can also recommend someone!

Try Dr. Jessica Schneider at Heldfond Medical Group. She's my OB and I love her and am hoping for a VBAC with her. She's known in the area for VBACs. Not sure after 2C, but I would try.

Thank you ladies, I am going to do that. I heard back from ICAN. I'm now on their Facebook group, and the chapter leader thinks there are women in my area who can recommend someone. I sure hope so. I'm going to post a message over there next, asking for help. I got another rejection from an OB today, so I'm feeling very discouraged.

I just put in a request to join this group. Thank you for suggesting this!

She has fantastic reviews on Yelp! She does sound promising, thank you so much!
