Ya, its too late to switch, plus i do like my regular ob. I go back to him next week, so im going to clarify with him all the changes his partner made.

It wasnt a good day yesterday anyway, and that all just added to my irritation

Too late to switch doctors?

Its going to be long, so im sorry.

First, im 34 +3 with baby #5. Im going weekly to my ob already, bc of low platelet counts with baby #3. Saw mfm with #4, but he always seemed like he really didn't understand why i was there, bc my whole pregnancy was normal. So im back at my smaller, local ob/hospital. He seems like hes the perfect amount pf cautious to keep me comfortable.

At my last few appts, we have discussed when i would be getting blood work done and u/s and all that.

Today, i get to the office and the lady at the desk cant find my name on her list, which i did right away at the 240pm slot. My appt was supposed to be at 115p. And i know i didnt make the mistake (for once lol) bc we discussed me being in at 1p, but those slots were filled, but since i was having an NST first, to go ahead and come in at 1, it would be fine.

Now, im not unreasonable, and i know that crap happens, i wasnt even mad, just annoyed, when after my NST, i waited in a second room for half an hour and no one bothered to tell me what had actually happened (that either i was early or the sched was wrong)

I ended up seeing the other doc in my practice, who i also really like. Well, instead of opening my file on the computer, she asks me what Dr. D had to say about me doing the tests. "Well, i started them last week and i am to do them weekly from here on out." She asked if i was doing an AFI, as well (i dont know what the acronym stands for just that its to check my fluids). I said no, dr d never said i needed to do anything like that. He told me that we would probably be ordering an u/s this week to check on growth, but thats all he said.

She then tells me we will be checking my platelets again at 36 weeks, which i was aware of. And she asked if i had seen an mfm this pregnancy,which i havent.

She then proceeds to tell me that my levels were pretty low last time and if they go any lower, i will be referred to an mfm. But Dr D only ever told me that my platelets were fine, and if they were to dip too low, we would do a round of steroids and go from there.

I go back to seeinf dr d next week, so i will talk about all of this with him, but i just needed to vent. Seriously, if we cant be on the same page, then, i only want to see ONE doctor. Again, i dont typically care, im prett relaxed, most the time, i was just super irritated by it all today.
