Do you like your doctor? yes, a lot but very often we do not see eye to eye

Do you see a man/woman/group? he's a guy

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? now that it had time to sink in I can say that he was kind. he was shocked as much as we were but since it is his job and he sees a lot of women in that position when he told us I hated him with all my gutz. Part of me wanted to blame him coz when we had our visit 2 weeks before he said that everything was ok when in fact the baby was already 2 weeks behind now I realise that he couldn't have said it in any different way to make it less painful

Are they helping you to get pregnant again? yes, he's part of the group now

Anything else you want to share about your doc? he's the most stubborn person I know (apart from myself), very dedicated, extremely difficult to persuade but takes all his patients seriously. Without his help I wouldn't still be here trying coz had I taken his boss's opion I would have given up more than a year ago! I really really really love my OB

Do you like your doctor? Yeah i really do, and most of the staff is nice (if tougher to deal with sometimes)

Do you see a man/woman/group? A woman, although she practices in a group with another female & male doctor

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? Yes, with both losses they were really very sensitive...with the latest loss I think my Dr was almost more upset about it than I was (once i eventually got past her staff and actually saw her)

Are they helping you to get pregnant again? Yes, she suggested running RPL testing even though she doesn't think it'll show anything "just in case" but otherwise it's not a very proactive practice (she's not an RE or Peri) in terms of helping you get pregnant...hasn't bothered me since we have gotten pregnant very easily each time, but if that changes I'd likely look at an RE to work with and use her only as OB once pregnant

Anything else you want to share about your doc? When I went in for the multiple u/s for this most recent loss, she still had the baby announcement I sent her after Savannah was born prominent on a big wall of the babies she's delivered...sounds stupid but it cheered me up even as i was going in to confirm we'd lost this baby that the last thing i'd see was a picture of my DD

Do you like your doctor?

Do you see a man/woman/group? Yes, although she is a midwife and not an OB

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? She was amazing and caring and compassionate and has checked on my constantly sicne everything started going downhill with the last pregnancy

Are they helping you to get pregnant again?She has told me to wait 3 cycles and she thinks that would be enough time for me to heal emotionally, I haven't told her I really want to just wait one cycle instead. Since it has only been 1 m/c we are just waiting to see what happens next time.

Anything else you want to share about your doc? She works in a practice with a High Risk OB, he actually delivered my other 2 kids but I switched to her because she was more VBAC friendly than he is.

Do you like your doctor? I loved the practice I was at when I had my loss!

Do you see a man/woman/group? I saw the same midwife for all my loss visits - but the whole group of midwives were women.

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? well, unfortunately, it was a missed m/c so I went for my 8wk u/s at the peri associated with the m/w office, not expecting anything to be wrong. I could see the screen, I could hear the u/s and it was still and silent. The tech even pointed out the baby to me, and and said "well I can't find a HB" then said wait here. I was a mess, DH the kids and I were all in this tiny room, I was half naked and sobbing my heart out. Then they ushered me into the hallway because there was someone else there for the next appointment. The receptionist came and gave me a HUGE hug and told me the m/w would be calling me.

Are they helping you to get pregnant again? no - I moved 4 hours away and I am having a hard time finding a doc or m/w I like.

Anything else you want to share about your doc? when I went for my first blood test at the m/w office, then took me directly into an exam room so I didn't have to stay there with all the bellies, got another HUGE hug and therapy session. She was wonderful.

Do you like your doctor? I love my OB, haven't had enough experience with the RE yet to tell

Do you see a man/woman/group? My doctor is a woman but it is a group practice.

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? Yes my doctor and the nurses couldn't have been sweeter

Are they helping you to get pregnant again? My OB ran a battary of tests and then sent me on to an RE

Anything else you want to share about your doc? I truly love my OB. She is one of those amazing doctors who listens to you, is never pushy about anything that isn't life threatening, doesn't get freaked out easily, etc. On important decisions she walks you through the pros and cons without trying to sway you one way or the other. I trust her completely.

Do you like your doctor? I love my midwife. The other m/w she now has in the office is alright, I am warming up to her...but, I still love my first one and prefer to see her.

Do you see a man/woman/group? Midwife group..but you get your midwife as long as the other is not out.

Do you feel like they handled telling you about your loss well? I didn't like how it all went down. I knew I was having a miscarriage, and they kept being too positive and giving me false hope...when I knew it was over. This thing is still dragging on, but hopefully I'll find out tomorrow that it is ending (had another hcg draw today to see if this 2nd bout of bleeding is bringing my numbers down). It's better than the OB they sent me to for an u/s...wow, was he an *******, and I have noted that I'd never like to see him ever again in the future.

Are they helping you to get pregnant again? No. How are they supposed to do that? We have never had issues getting pregnant.

Anything else you want to share about your doc? <3 her. she listens and is supportive of what you want, and i feel like she really listens and remembers who i am and my situation and all that. she is really good about following up.
