    Please move if in the wrong place, wasn't 100% sure where to ask!

    I was Domino on first baby, went 12 days over, so was transferred to public , was induced, had a horrible experience that ended with an emergency section.

    Planning for baba 2 ( I must be mad!!) and wondering if I'll qualify for domino or if the section excludes me? Will be getting on to them, but wondering if anyone here knows?

    I did the Domino Scheme in the Coombe on my first which ended in a section.
    On my second I had to have my first appointment in the hospital where I asked my consultant if I could attend to midwives clinic. She was happy to transfer me over but said I would need to be transfered back over to consultant led care close to my due date, I got to 38 weeks without having to go into the hospital for appointments. Had my baby at 40+4 so only really had 2 hospital appointments other than for scans.

    It doesn't exclude you at all, you will have to get permission off your consultant though! There's also a few things that you'll have to fight for in you want a VBAC such as if you want no continious monitoring etc.

    Thanks much, the answer I was hoping to hear. I adored my dominio midwives, was gutted when I was transferred, so hopefully this time things will go more to plan!
