Pediatrician!!??? (Rant)

I went for my 32 week checkup this morning and they suggested that I register at the hospital. As I start to work my way through the questions they ask me for the pediatrician name. I was so dumbfounded that I haven’t picked one out. I asked my ob/gyn for a suggestion and she gave it to me. I gave the information to my hubby and I was going to complete my registration until!!!!... Mr. Opinion decided that I shouldn’t rush into the decision and should do my research. He looked online for 5 minutes and gave up. So, I said cool I will call the doctor that was recommended and ask a few questions and schedule a tour... this lovely man of mine told me it was stupid to tour a pediatrician and don’t complete the registration because we have 2 whole months before I’m due! I’m over it, I’m just gonna make him do everything on his own since he keeps saying how we have sooooo much time. Woosah

I toured a pediatrician in early Jan I'm due March 26. If I left it up to my husband it would not get done. We are going with them.My hospital wanted my paperwork done at 24weeks I think I sent it in at 28 lol.

So on my form you could just leave the field blank because we hadn’t chosen at that point either. They hospital should have an on call doctor if you still haven’t picked at time of delivery... also, they will ask you again when you’re at the hospital so even if you put this one down it is not a permanent choice

Ok so as I think two months is a while before birth it is NEVER TOO EARLY to find a good pediatrician. They will be caring for your child’s health and you need to be thorough depending on your wants and needs. Just do it without him since he’s not taking it seriously. You are right in how you feel!

Had a similar issue w my husband! He kept saying we have all this time blah blah but I knew I would be having our baby early and by c section at that. (Im currently 32+5 and our c section is scheduled for 37 weeks.) I’m a FTM so I have made lists and done things early. Just so I won’t have to stress about it when our daughter is born. He’s so nonchalant about things I actually blew up on him at like 29 weeks lol (thanks, hormones!) thankfully after my meltdown he’s totally changed his tune. And doesn’t question me when I wanna do something earlier than he thinks we should 😂 hope it gets better for you mama!

Thank you ladies for your feedback! I wanted to walk out the house lol maybe hormones. I can’t stand how he procrastinates I didnt realize he possessed this characteristic and it is killing me. We been together 5 years and I guess this is the first time it matters. Lmao
