Midwifes, OBs, whomever will do exactly the eff what you want them to until there's trouble, then it's all bets off. People in general need to do a better job of advocating for themselves in health care in general and with childbirth specifically. As a parent to be the best thing you can do is research what works best for your family, find a practitioner on the front end who will accommodate your needs then go with that plan.
The big secret here is that the doctors can't intervene without your express permission. Where this matters most is with VBACs. Some hospitals will say that we don't do those, that's false. Literally every hospital in America has to. You should pick a place and an OB that will do them, but if you get caught in a pinch, they have to do exactly what the hell you tell them to.
