About a week ago, Daddy B heard a rumor that he was up for a promotion. He works for the railroad, which is pretty much a "good ol' boy" company and when you hear rumors, there's usually some truth behind them. We found out yesterday that it was true and that he received the position. I'm so proud of him and his advancement within his company!
But there is one problem. We currently live in Texas (and were both raised here and went to college here). The new job is in Louisiana. In my husband's company, you don't turn down a promotion and we knew when he accepted the job offer 4 years ago that moving was a part of the job. We just hoped that our next move would happen AFTER this baby was born!
So now, Daddy B and I are back to square one in finding a good care provider. I'm pretty overwhelmed! I've started putting out feelers out there through ICAN and through the online community I'm part of. So far I've gotten one recommendation of an OB who is VBAC supportive in the area. Daddy B and I are prepared to birth out of the hospital if that's what it takes for us to feel comfortable with our provider choice. I've only found one doula listed online for the area, but will probably contact DONA International (the doula organization) to see if they have any registered for the area. The city we are moving to is only about 55,000 people, so that's why we are having a hard time finding sources.
Daddy B starts the job in just two weeks! We will probably move in 4-6 weeks.
Our next appointment with Dr. C is next friday and I'm hoping since he is from Georgia, he may know some other VBAC-supportive OB's between here and there!
I told you guys this blog was going to follow my journey to a VBAC. Who knew I would be speaking literally!
