Love my OB!

I had my monthly check-up this morning and I freakin' love my OB office.  I was asking about labor and delivery and what their stance is on natural/med-free birth.  She said they try to be as hands-off as possible.  If I want to go natural, awesome.  If not, they're cool with that, too.  She also said they'd let me go as long as 2 weeks past due before inducing.  I hope I don't have to go that long, but I love that they want LO to do what he needs to do to be ready.  Every time I go to an appointment, I'm more and more encouraged by this office.  :)  Yay!

Little Man's heartbeat was great.  I also had my belly measured for the first time today and I'm measuring 24 weeks...so just a couple days ahead. :)

And holy crap.  My next appointment is my last MONTHLY appointment.  Every other week after that.  Holy Moly.  How has time flown this much?!

  • thats awesome! you've got me thinking though on things I need to talk to my midwife about!
  • Yay!  That was my doc's attitude too.  Whatever I wanted she was good with.  When I asked a question, she told me all the facts, but didn't try to influence me one way or another which I really appreciated.  Also when I did go into labor, I was very pleased that I was only asked one time when I arrived if I had been wanting/planning on an epidural.  When I responded no, it was never brought up again.  I'm sure if my labors had been longer/stalled/more complicated, it may have been a different story, but they were very encouraging and even gave me tips during both labors/deliveries to help me go med free. 

    It's very important that you mesh well with your doc and it sounds like you do, so yay again :)
