So, I've not really been enjoying my Dr. visits. My original OB/GYN was great and I’ve known him for a long time; the problem? He doesn’t deliver babies anymore. So unfortunately, after the first trimester he sends you to a delivery doctor, which I was (and still am) really bummed about. He gave me a list of different doctors and highly recommended on in particular. Jason and I decided we’d try him out, so we made an appointment.
The first appointment with him was disappointing. I think it had a lot to do with my expecting someone like my other doctor, but it also had to do with his bedside manner. Basically, he has none. Very cold, in and out in 5 minutes, he barely said anything, and it was just… not fun. I thought maybe it was just me, so we opted to give him another try.
Four weeks later we had another appointment. This time we were scheduled to have an ultrasound, but for some reason, the office didn’t schedule it and told us the earliest opening was about a week later. He wanted us to have an outside ultrasound (better equipment). We were pretty anxious to have an ultrasound to see the progress so we asked if they could just do it there. The doctor said yes but didn’t seem too happy about it at all.
We had the ultrasound. This time we got to see a lot. I the picture to the right you can see the spine!!
In the picture below that you can see a foot!
Needless to say the only thing good about the appointment was seeing the sonogram. This time my mom got to come, which was great. We still weren’t impressed by the Dr. We tried to be optimistic, though, and made yet another appointment. Another 3 weeks later we went back, this time with Jason’s step mom, and my birthing coach, Peggy. She wasn’t impressed with him just as my mom wasn’t. The appointment lasted a whole 2 minutes and we were on our way.
That was enough for me. I've decided to look for another Dr. Check back very soon for an update!
