Join us for a doula discussion all about changing care providers during pregnancy.
Why might you want to switch providers?
Maybe you love your provider, but they are in a large practice and you rarely get to see them.
Maybe you feel like they brush off your concerns or don't take you seriously.
Maybe you want an non-medicated birth and they really push for epidurals.
Maybe you want a repeat cesarean and your provider doesn't support that.
Whatever the reason may be, you deserve to feel comfortable and confident in your birth team.
Why might someone stay with a provider when they aren't comfortable?
Clients often say they stayed with their provider because they thought they were just being hormonal, or they second guessed their hesitations, or their cousin had a good experience with them so how could they be having such a poor experience. Some of our clients have been with their provider for years and through previous pregnancies and they just keep hoping their feelings of uneasiness will go away... They rarely do.
A provider can be a skilled, knowledgeable, respected OBGYN or midwife, but they just aren't the right fit for you. Join us on Tuesday as we chat more about switching providers during your pregnancy.
