New Doctor

Post by eanadeau »

I am going to a new OB/GYN next Thursday for the first time since my daughter (ROBPI) was born. Any suggestions for questions? I am very anxious and would love some feedback from others' experiences.

Thanks! Emily

Ask them what they would do/what protocol they follow in the case of shoulder dystocia would be high on my list.
