well i'm now 10 weeks ,i've seen my doctor twice once for bloodwork and once for pap and internal.i just had my u/s yesterday(everything looks good)i just assumed i would be able to see an o/b at 12 weeks.WRONG!!!!my doctor says i might not get in for a couple of months!!wth!with my other pregnancies i stayed with my gp till 20 weeks and then went to an o/b and thought nothing about it,but after the m/c i want someone who is trained to know about pregnancies!!with all the ob's near me i just can't understand why there is noone who can see me!!sooo my doctor thinks its find for me to come see her at 13 weeks(when i m/c)and then at 17 weeks and maybe then i can see an o/b!i seriously hate docors right now!!lol

What?! That makes no sense! If I were you I'd just go and get an OB. You can insist on this with your GP. Is she trained in OB/GYN issues? Even if she is, you can explain to her that since your PAL you'd like to see an OB as soon as possible so that you can establish a rapport with him/her BEFORE you're expected to deliver!

Good luck!

i called the receptionist and told her that i wanted in to any ob she could find and that i wanted in at 12 weeks.the doctor called me back very confused!she didnt understand why i wanted in at 12 weeks!!!when i told her that it was a normal pre natal check up date she thought i was crazy,and when i mentioned that i wanted in before my m/c milestone she told me outright that i really couldnt expect that they would be able to fit me in just because it was before my m/c date!!!!(go thing she wasnt in front of me!!)i came home to a message with an appt. with an ob on nov.17!that puts me 2 days past my m/c date(13w4d) but i guess its better then nothing!so now all i have to do is stay calm and have faith that this baby is here to stay. crystal

Crystal...is there another clinic you could go to? That just seems outrageous to me! You, all of us, everyONE, needs a clinic that cares and is there for you. Seriously, if you can, find a new clinic, even if it is in the next town. (((HUGS)))
