I hope they contact us again to let us know whether their search (and vaginal birth!) was ultimately successful! I put it out on our FB page and one of our board members sent out a message to a listserve she is a part of with OBs and midwives across Canada and she had several responses.<br /><br />If we hear back I will let you know! =)melissa v.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14872177586401321895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-36383059330802446602011-07-26T16:06:56.585-04:002011-07-26T16:06:56.585-04:00If they can't provide these services, they nee...If they can't provide these services, they need to refer her to someone who can, even if that means flying her to another province.

I believe it's against the protocols of the IWK (the maternity hospital) to do vaginal breech deliveries. <br /><br />Your emailer may want to contact the midwives in Lunenburg / Queens to see if they are willing / able. <br /><br />In Lunenburg and Queens County:<br />South Shore Community Midwives<br />Maren Dietze & Leslie Niblett <br />144a Dufferin Street<br />Bridgewater, NS<br />Tel 902 527 5087<br />Fax 902 543 6467Rhiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17605238931175521127noreply@blogger.com
