Hi there,

I'm new to this forum stuff so please bare with me.

I'm pregnant with my second child and am hoping for a natural birth following the emergency c/section I had with my DD.

I am with a midwife currently but do not feel that she has much experience with VBAC or understands the importance of it too me.

Can anyone recommend a midwife on the North Shore (Auck) with VBAC experience and interest????

My back up midwife seemed quite ok with VBAC, she started talking to me about it before i was discharged.

My midwife was Ruth Davison. She is out Pukekohe way though. I had a WONDERFUL home waterbirth VBA2Cs & she was a brilliant midwife. If you are willing to travel for your visits then she would probably do it as she had a lady who had a hospital VBA2Cs just two weeks after me who was on the North Shore
Mum to Alex (11), Blaire (10) & Erika (8) and Damien (6)

Successful HWB VBA2Cs!
