Saying hello!!

I'm not sure how active this board is but thought I would say hello. I am just about 7 weeks pregnant with my first and would love to connect with a local group. I live in Anchorage.

Congratulations! This board was semi-active for a little bit but it seems to have slowed down some! I also live in Anchorage. I am 33 weeks pregnant!

Hi Jamijoe. Sorry it took me a while to respond. I get on this website a few times per week. Congrats to you!!! You have neared the coundown. Is this your first little one? Who is you doctor? I have my first prenatal appt tomorrow. It is with Joy Zimmerman. She is my fertility specialist. I conceived through IVF. Quite a journey. I will continue to see her every other visit. The other visit will be with my OB/GYN. She recommended someone that is the across the hall from her at Alaska Regional. I'm blanking on the name right now.

HI! This is our first one! We are having a little boy (Michael Alan). My doctor is Dr. Craig Hinkle and the pediatrician is Dr. Karaganis with Polar Pediatrics. I absolutely ADORE my doctor! He is completely amazing!

Hi!

I'm from Eagle River... I'll be 35 weeks Monday. I can't wait to be done!! We're having a boy (our first) and his name is Sawyer Dean!!

I go to Anchorage Women's Clinic and have had an okay experience... not that great. I'm thinking for baby #2 I'm going to find another doctor. Any great reccommendations??

I LOVE my doctor (Dr. Craig Hinkle) with Alaska's Women's Health. He has been completely amazing! You and are at the same time in our pregnancy!

I've heard his name before... Is he the only doctor at that practice?

My issue is Anchorage Women's Clinic is that it's so big. I LOVE my midwife, but there's something like seven different people who could be the one who's there on the actual day. Some of the doctor's I've met I really don't like either. Frustrating.

I guess I'll worry about finishing this pregnancy before planning the next. Lol.

Nope he is not the only doctor in the practice. He is in the Providence office with one other doctor and a midwife. They do have the bigger office over on Lake Otis but I never see any of those people. When I go in for my five million doctors appointments I almost always see Hinkle. Everyone in the office is amazing...including the office staff and the nurses....I even like the guy who takes my blood (and yes I still cry with shots!).

Hey all... I am in Anchorage as well and go to Anchorage Womens Clinic.

kiribeckwith · January 2011

Who's your doctor at AWC? I LOVE my midwife, but most of the doctor's I've met I haven't felt very comfortable or trusting of. I've decided I can only have my little guy during the week and during the day when she's on call... lol. We will see how that works out!

I have Dr. Johnson and love her. I had a different Dr. at first and she irritated the heck out of me. This is my third pregnancy and I didn't need a Dr. that would tell me if I didn't get this or that blood work done I wouldn't know about certain defects and wouldn't be able to abort (SO NOT AN OPTION!) Plus I traveled a lot in this pregnancy and every time I saw a different Dr. and they saw the notes in my file, they would freak out. HTH and happy 9!
