I was fortunate enough, with all four of mine, to find OBs that were non-intervention. My labors are so fast (like, less than an hour) that a birthing center was never an option, nor would a home birth have worked unless I wanted to do it sans-midwife (which yes, I would do that 100 times, but to sate hubby, I had a "professional" there). I never had IVs, internal exams, cuts, shots, anything. And went home from the hospital within 3-4 hours of birth (some moms don't know you can do that!). They are out there, but hard to find! Good luck, and congratulations! I hope you find what you need! I was fortunate enough, with all four of mine, to find OBs that were non-intervention.
