  Okay. So with my first pregnancy I actually received pretty good care particularly from the nurse midwives. Unfortunately I had to have a cesarean. I had taken too many tums for my heartburn and my placenta had calcified pretty bad. They notified me of the VBAC ban in the hospitals in Northern California before the surgery so over the next year I did my research and decided to go with homebirth midwives for my next pregnancy. About half way through my pregnancy after my midwives had requested my medical history I got a call from Dr Shea's office that was extremely patronizing trying to discourage me from receiving care from my midwives (who by the way were amazing and truly care about their moms and babies) telling me how extremely dangerous VBAC is. So that's when I realized that they didn't truly care about women and birth but more about their paycheck. I suggest all women being told they must have a repeat cesarean to the research of what the risk of uterine rupture is (less than one percent - even less without interventions like pitocin - and now even less than that for me since I have now had a safe and successful VBAC) versus the risk of placenta accretia, incretia, and percreatia which is more dangerous than a uterine rupture. So the 2 stars is pretty much for the very rude phone call I got from them making me feel like I was stupid when I was actually making a very informed decision for the health of my baby and I. So to all csection mamas out there please know that you have an option and please do the research on ALL of the risks and ask A LOT of questions.
