Very unethical. The doctor should be making both parents feel involved and acknowledged when it comes to the unborn child

@jerin, I think he ignores my husband because my husband is Hispanic with a really strong accent and instead of telling him he doesn't understand he just choose not to care

Mine does the same. My SO just started to show up to the appointments because his days off finally are aligned with the doctor visits. And he complains about how careless my OB neglects us for more than an hour and just brushes off my questions sometimes

@jerin, my ob is too back and forth I don't like his unsureness and he treats my husband like a ghost

I wouldn't know about the pros and cons of that. I have debated on changing my OB. Mine is nice and all but there's times she seems so careless about my wellbeing as well as my baby's. It may be last minute but whatever you feel is better for you and your baby

@jerin, yeah that's why I'm still thinking about changing even though it's last minute

They all say it's a "small thing" and that it's "normal". Typical of doctors in my opinion. I think it's an excuse to not use so much of their tools and other stuff to actually check up on the changes.

@jerin, lucky my pressure is terrible but I tell the doctor about it and he just says it's normal

I've been fairly round I suppose. It's just there's so much weight on my waist that it hurts to walk around but if I hold my belly up a bit the pressure isn't as bad

@jerin, that sucks I just started gaining weight but I think it's because I was practically sick this entire time

I have the paranoia fear of mine being premature. My tummy dropped too along with various amounts of spotting. Every day it feels like I'm carrying a brick that won't stop gaining weight

@jerin, I think my day is sooner than what I have in my mind my pain has doubled and my tummy dropped

@darshay012 I know! So close but feels so far away like the days are purposely becoming slow.

@jerin, ughh same but all I'm hoping is that it ends sooner than later and my son is healthy

I have to roll all over the bed just so I can sit up the scoot my way to the edge so I can stand up. I am very happy to be a mom but this pain is unbearable at times. I wish some things were easier.

@jerin, it's a beautiful thing but it's a drag also I can barely get in and out of bed or walk

Agreed! I hate being uncomfortable every day and night
