Choosing a Doctor or a Midwife

Obstetricians delivered all three of my babies. I think it’s very important to take the time to find an obstetrician who’s really a good match for you. You want to find someone you’re comfortable with and who shares your philosophies about birth. The relationship between a woman and her obstetrician is very special. For myself I chose an obstetrician in solo practice, rather than a doctor in a group practice. It was very important to me to know who was going to deliver my babies. Pregnancy is such a special time, and I really enjoyed the relationships I had with my obstetricians. I think that when you know and trust your doctor, you’ll be much calmer in the delivery room.
