Do you feel well taken care of?

Question

Or do you think doctor's should be doing more to put your mind at ease?

Answer

This is my first pregnancy and because I was born with a heart condition I was recommended to a high risk OBGYN. My first appt had me so upset. First he wasn't sure he wanted to take me as a patient because my condition is so severe and complex, he was worried about me when it came time to deliver because there isn't a cardiac team in or near his office. Second, he suggested I terminate the pregnancy because of my condition. By the end if my appt I had assured him I was going to see my cardiologist the following day so he sent a note to me cardiologist with me with a list of questions on it to help determine if he will take me as a patient. My cardiologist assured me that I would be fine and let me know that he contacted my high risk OBGYN so I didn't have to worry and neither did he. I have my second appt with my OBGYN Tuesday, I'm praying it goes much better!!

This pregnancy has been so hard and had no support because our resident midwife off ill I get to see someone in two weeks

Answer

I switched doctors and offices and even though the new one is further away, I am much more comfortable with them.

Answer

My doctors have been great besides one in particular who doesn't give me a lot of feedback, both the male doctors I see are wonderful though.

Answer

I am nervous about going nearly three months without knowing if there are even still 2 in here. I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks and don't get Another until 20. I am telling myself it just means everything is okay, but I worry. Other twin moms say they have way more. Am I being unreasonable? Just want peace of mind.

Answer

Should be getting better care docs hardly explain things anymore and rush you. I'm very high risk and it kills me to not have my questions answered or to be rushed and I still have more questions or concerns. Not knowing the plan for the future or delivery kills me. I'm really dreading it now that I have to see the doc more and it sort of makes me not happy and a little depressed each visit instead of the feeling of joy knowing everything is okay for another few days. My high risk doc is the same way rush, rush, rush and I'm just so irritated and then when I end up in the hospital the other ob docs tell me all the things my doc should have or should be doing and it really adds to my stress knowing I'm not getting the best care and that my daughter can come any day because of this horrible service. Sorry for the long vent but I'm mad and it sucks when you would rather have your baby early than to deal with all this madness :(

Answer

I hope and pray it goes better also what an ass
