Having to chang OB at 39 weeks!

Mattie

My OB told me at my last appointment, last Friday that I have to go to a different hospital to give birth, because of their policies with anesthesia (due to BMI). She didn't know about the policy, and has never had this happen with a patient before. I have been riddled with anxiety all weekend having to wait to get in contact with this new doctor. I have the appointment set up for tomorrow afternoon, but it's a two hour drive from my house. So I'm hoping to schedule an induction, so I don't have to try to make a 2 hour drive while in labor.
