When I moved to my current city, I established an OB (or rather, midwife). I have seen her since we started trying to conceive. For the most part, I like her. At my confirmation appointment, everything felt super rushed. She was talking a mile a minute, and rushing through what I considered to be important information.

The nurse is terrible. She is who I deal with mostly. When I call with questions, she acts like I am an idiot. She makes me feel silly for calling, and always sounds annoyed. She reads to me from the pamphlet the doctor gave me, so I feel like she may not know what she is doing.

I don’t know what to do. This is my first baby, and I feel like they are treating me like “just another pregnant woman”. They don’t take the time to make me feel cared for, and I just want to feel like they think my baby is a priority. The closest other hospitals are about 30-40 minutes away. I imagine driving 40 minutes in active labor and it scares me.

Thoughts?
