Annoyed with my care provider.

Courtney • Mommy to Liam and Emery, due October 31st with baby number 3!

Hey everyone, just want to vent for a moment and looking for some insight. I’m not sure if I’m over reacting or not and would love some other opinions.

I’m almost 14 weeks with my 3rd baby (4th pregnancy). I got a phone call today from my prenatal care provider asking to change my appointment from in clinic to a zoom call. I told them I would much rather be seen in person. After having a miscarriage its nice to be able to go in and hear the heart beat and have everything else is checked to make sure everything is okay. I felt really pushed into it and she made it seem like I didn’t have a choice so I finally agreed and then when they gave me the option of two midwives I’ve never seen before I told them I wanted to see my regular midwife (she’s been my midwife for 8 years now and I feel like I have a personal relationship with her and absolutely love and trust her). She then told me my midwife wasn’t doing zoom appointments only in person!

I ended up getting really emotional and angry and couldn’t stop crying. I want to see my regular midwife who I trust and totally felt bullied into doing a zoom. Also what’s even the point of getting prenatal care when they can’t actually check to make sure everything is okay?

I guess I’m just looking for some advice on how to go about this? Do you ladies think I’m over reacting?
