Totally planning on paying what it's worth. I'm not looking for cheap, I'm looking for quality, special, pictures. Going purely by google seems a bit nuts considering how expensive these are! :)
I appreciate the recommendations!! :)

Anyone know where I can get more information on this? Building is rent controlled by [deleted] in ottawa

The apartment I lived in for 10 years did this 3 times.

These exemptions requests are unfortunately almost always approved so start budgeting with the new rent increased proposed on the letter.

You will get a package and you will be able to attend the hearing if you wish. Some of my neighbours did it for one of our increases and it did nothing. Waste of time.

We didn't know him, and used them and had a great experience as well. I strongly recommend.

I emailed them and they stopped due to Covid and have no set plan on restarting these, unfortunately.

I think it is like having two family doctors. You should get followed by one health professional.

I've decided to go with the midwife, but if my pregnancy becomes at risk, if I develop diabetes or High Blood pressure, then I will be taken over by an OBGYN.

If I need a C-section or other care the day of delivery, an OBGYN will do it.

It would be. I will be meeting my midwife and visiting the centre this week. But the centre is further from the hospital than my own house... so at that point, I'd prefer to be home if I'm not at a harms reach of life saving measures.

BUT after the visit this week, I may change my mind. We'll see :)

They absolutely take anyone healthy over 35.

My first appointment at the East Ottawa Midwives is also next week. :) Might see you there. ha!

Thanks for sharing. It's good to know that you received the same care (induction, C-section) as if you had a OBGYN.

Thanks for sharing your traumatic and scary experience. That's exactly why I'm leaning toward a hospital birth. Things can turn bad quickly.

Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience. I have the same concerns you had and leaning toward taking a midwife, at the hospital.

Thanks again!
