Anyone else hate their practice? Is it too late to switch?! 😒

Question

I almost passed out on the table getting my ultrasound today lol I asked the tech to get me water because I felt faint and she's like that will just make you throw up 😒 lady! I did not ask your opinion, I asked you for water.  So she had me turn to my side because I wasn't getting enough blood to my heart & brain because of being on my back-- she later said I knew something was up because you kept squirming around... yes, I felt like I was going to faint. 
When she got me water and low and behold I did not throw up btw lol.
I had this growth scan today because I had traveled to St. Thomas and they were checking again to see if he had Zika even though he was fine the last two times and I had no symptoms. Thankfully his head is fine just like I knew it would be. He's 3 lbs 12 oz so far, they said he's a little small even though compared to baby center and glow he's not and the ultrasounds can be off by 15%. I just feel like they're trying to get money out of my insurance all the time.

His head is perfect 😍 maybe even a little big lol

Answer

Man I can't stand my practice but it's too late to switch. Once I give birth I am done with them though.

Answer

Oh Hun that's horrible! How worrying I know I would be !

Can you switch doctors? 
Where do you live? I'm in Cali so Zika can't come
Here luckily, I was worried about it before I knew that !

Answer

I was wondering this too because of some interactions I had over the phone with the hospital I will be birthing at. I mentioned my frustration to my Doula, and she told me literally... you can switch while you're in labor if you want to. It's always up to you. If something isn't going your way you do not have to stay. She told me about this one lady she was a Doula for, that was in labor and the baby was still head up and butt down (sorry I can never remember the terms 😋) anyway the doctor refused to try to manually turn the baby head down, and insisted on a C section. Long story short she absolutely didn't want that so while in labor, they drove her to a doctor who specialized in turning babies and vaginal births and the doctor turned her baby and she successfully had it vaginally! I am sure this is not something many woman would want to go through, so it's important to be comfortable and know where your doctor stands on these things before hand. Maybe in your case look around for another doctor and meet with them incase you need a back up plan if you really start to dislike it at your current place.  But know it is always up to you. It's your choice to have anything or not have anything.

Answer

I switched at 25 weeks. I'm not sure if it's too late for you but you could try.

Answer

It's never to late to switch but definitely do your research. I had a appointment with a clinic in middle of September I had to have surgery for mrsa in august and we didn't know we were pregnant so my surgeon called to move the appointment up due to mrsa coming back they said not until the 12 week mark do my surgeon called another doctor he worked closly with and they got me right in. Long story short 1st clinic every one raves about second one is a very small husband and wife practice but if I had waited to go to the bigger clinic I would have miscarried before the appointment but going to the little clinic I knew and could prepare my self. Now still being seen in the little clinic and 34 weeks 2 days

Answer

You know baby center and flow are estimates. I would stick with the professionals. Unless something else happened this doesn't sound like a reason to change doctors based on a technician because she won't be there on delivery day.
