I don't understand why at 10 weeks I have to have a birth plan and a pediatrician picked out-.- like…

yeah you have more than enough time. I got my information at 26 weeks.I still don't have a pediatrician lol

its better to get it done now before you start getting everything else ready... so you don't get overwhelmed

I have the pediatrician picked already it's the birth plan I don't understand. she wants it by Wednesday @babychloe @tlokitabella91

I guess its good to be prepared either way so at least you'll have that out the way.I haven't turned mine it yet I just got mine @callumsmommy

i didn't have a ped til after my daughter was born. and they didn't even look at my birth plan, just asked me all the questions

I have the pediatrician picked I just don't understand why I have to have a birth plan now, I feel like they're rushing me @_akgirl

were they really pushy about it? that's very rude. tell them you need time. and put your foot down about it. it's not something you should just wing

@_akgirl, yeah they want me to be prepared the office has had me thinking about It since 5 weeks I don't even know what goes on a birth plan I just want him out safely @_akgirl

Girl I hated my OB asking me that question. I seriously told her, "Look, I don't even know the gender yet, and the baby can't see the pediatrician if "born" at 10 weeks gestation. So can we just hold off on that question until the baby at least has a name?" Thankfully, she held off until just recently (Now I'm 31 weeks). It just doesn't seem practical to have a pediatrician picked out that early on.

my son has a name, and a pediatrician it's the birth plan she's making me mad about @kikibee

Tell them you plan to have a healthy baby no matter what and that's how far you've gotten as far as a birth plan. Mine still isn't drawn up yet 😂

if you want any pain meds (your preferred and back up) if you want music, who you want in the room if anyone. who will cut the cord. if you're breastfeeding. who will give first bath. who you DON'T want there. those were some of the questions on mine.

thank you:) that I can answer lol! my doctor just told me write it down and we'd go over it wednesday@_akgirl and your right on that one lol I just want my little guy here safe and in one piece with out friends and family hasselin me I'm not playing pass Callum aroun the hotel room@kikibee

That's the worst. I hated how after I had my c section with my daughter that everyone swarmed her and I at the hospital. She was in the NICU and everyone kept wanting me to get up and take them to the NICU to see her and I was like "Chill out I was just cut open please let us rest." Definitely let your doctor know how many people you want in the room and who they are exactly. People will try and guilt trip you and make you feel bad if you don't include them, but your stress level is his stress level, especially during birth and those fragile moments after. I plan on a vaginal this time with just my husband and I in there with very limited visits during our stay.

@kikibee, so far the only person in the room will be my fiance and one family member. I won't change my mind becasue I want to be comfortable, but like I'm having them private list me bc I want NO-ONE up there that's me and josephs time to get to learn and have time with our son

and that would 've awesome girl!! that's totally the way to go
