Thanks Linda. I was wondering about Lionel Steinberg because he has such a good reputation for approaching things naturally, but then I want to balance my desire for a natural non-medicalized birth with the expert care that IC requires during pregnancy. It seems that some OBs don't care for IC themselves, but refer you to a high risk OB if that occurs, and I didn't know whether Lionel Steinberg fell into that category or not. One of the doctors I've spoken with seems to provide the expert pregnancy care combined with the focus on natural childbirth, but he seems always to be having a very busy day. I presume you're happy with Dr. Steinberg. Is he your doctor this time around as well (congratulations, BTW!)?
