Would you switch OB’s?
This is my 3rd pregnancy. I have an OB who delivered my first two kids and I’m fine with her, my pregnancies and deliveries have been pretty average, I feel like I’m pretty conventional. But, we have moved to a new area. I’m still commuting to the same job I’ve always had. Drive from my work and my previous home to the previous hospital is about 20 mins. From my new house it’s more like 50 mins. I could switch to a new ob and deliver at a different hospital that’s 20 mins from my new house. On my 2nd baby my husband went back and forth from home to the hospital a couple times to help my mom with our oldest kid and make sure the dog got a walk etc, that would be harder with a 50 min drive. With my 1st I was induced and with my 2nd I went into labor spontaneously, the 2nd one my water broke and I was able to shower, shave, drop my daughter off at daycare, e-mail and call my office and mom, drive myself to the hospital, get checked in, hang out for a bit, before my contractions even started. What would you do?
