40 weeks 1 day
Hey ladies I need to vent and maybe even get some advice here. I’m really upset with my current Dr, this is my first pregnancy and she 1. Makes my concerns seem insignificant 2. Makes a big deal out of my concerns a week after I express them 3. Doesn’t answer any of my questions…. I had a previous hip injury a few years ago and my hips have been hurting really bad but she said it was normal and then a week later she scheduled a surprise ultrasound to weigh the baby to make sure she wasn’t crushing my hips (like why wait so long to be concerned?), then I find out that my babies weight is in the 55th percentile and I asked what that meant and she was super vague about it so I still don’t understand. My daughters measurements are all over the place, different parts of her body are measuring at different dates like her head is at 37 weeks 2 days but her leg is measuring at 39 weeks 4 days (idk if that’s normal) and I emailed my Dr asking if this was something to worry about and she still hasn’t responded 5 days later. AND to make everything worse my Dr waited until 40 weeks to see my vagina for the first time and do a cervix exam and she says “well I can’t seem to find your cervix and I’m not going to go poking and prodding”!! Like wait what!? Your a Dr how can you not find a cervix! So I have no idea if I’m dilated or not but it makes me uncomfortable and not so trusting in my Drs abilities.
