We have our home visit scheduled for May 19th! That will be yet another thing to check off our list of things to do.
I did find out today I need to find an OB for my yearly exam and for medical clearance. I was really hoping the birth center and midwives I used with our 3rd baby would be able to help with all that, but they need an MD after their name. So back to the drawing board. I am going to have to have my records transferred again and have someone go through it all ... again. I am going to be calling my former OB clinic and see if I can get an appointment with the OBGYN that originally cleared me when we were looking at this back in 2014. Hopefully that will help and he will remember me and remember going through everything. I had zero complications with my 3rd birth so I see no reason for him to find anything concerning! It is just a matter of getting everything faxed back over ... and paperwork can seemingly take awhile.
I am hoping when we get to that point I end up back in the care of a midwife/midwife team - even though I would need to be in a hospital for delivery. It is a bummer I could not be at the birth center. I was so comfortable and felt so empowered there. But I know that I can find peace/power that I felt there - anywhere with the right support team!
So that is where we are at right now. Appointments are being set up and paperwork flying around!
Until next time...
