More Decisions

June 16, 2004

Hi All,

Well I found out that my beloved OB will be going on vacation from June 22 until

July 29th!!!! I am due on July 28th!!! This is my 4th doctor this pregnancy

and he is the only one I have liked and trust!!! I am so upset!!!

So ....He is telling me not to worry that one of the other attendings will be

there....3 of whom I have met and let me tell you I am so not impressed and one

of them I flat out hate.....

I basically told him if he's not going to be there and since I don't trust

anyone there besides him why should I have my baby 12 miles from my house when I

can go 1/4 of a mile from my house and be surrounded by strangers too.

I am so unhappy about this!!!!

Also at this lovely fancy worlds best hospital I will have a super tiny room and

have to share a bathroom...but if I go to the hospital down the street from my

house they have maternity suites that are huge.....just like when I had my son

almost 5 years ago...

My doctor said I needed to go to his hospital because they have my case records

there....

But can't I just tell the doctors at the hospital down the road my

conditions....what's the difference - either way some doctor who isn't familiar

with me is going to be doing a delivery on the fly....

My hubby thinks I should just go where we've been going since they have a NICU

on hand and its one of the worlds best hospitals.....

But I have major trust issues with alot of the staff at this " great " hospital

and haven't been very impressed with my care until this new doctor took over....

Any thoughts? Isn't it my right to have my baby where I want?

What do you think? Am I being psycho?
