peoria ob offices?

Hi folks!

I know this is the Chicago board, but I didn't see an Illinois board in general.

With a little luck, my husband will land a job in Peoria in a few weeks. The twist is that I am 16w pregnant, and have a contract to teach until mid-December. If I wait until my contract has completed, I will be at the end of my second trimester. 

Keeping in mind whether I stay behind and have the baby here (in Virginia), or whether I can find a doctor in Peoria (who will, ahem, take me that far in my pregnancy), I will still need to find an ob in Peoria. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance, ladies!

    Peoria is my hometown! Both my family and DH's live back there so we go home about once a month or so. My family is all in the medical field. I have not used any OB offices there, but I would definitely suggest that you go with OSF! They are the best and really if there are any problems with you or your baby you will be sent there from any of the surrounding hospitals. If I was to go into labor while visiting the area there would be no doubt in my mind where I would be heading, I would 100% use OSF for everything I need.

    If your DH is interviewing with Caterpillar, probably the largest enployer in the area, his insurance will cover you at OSF.

    dear lisa,

     thanks for the info! i googled up some osf and am looking into it.

    we have family in carmel, in., but nothing any closer (or anyone who has lived there). if you dont mind, i may be picking your brain in the next few weeks and months for resources.

    thanks again!

    Thats fine, feel free to contact me. If I dont know off the top of my head my mom works at OSF and I have a couple of girl friends who have delivered in Peoria and some that are expecting again.
