So today I met with Dr. Beams and it went great!  I am excited that we have a new pediatrician who fits more in line w/what our family is looking for :)

    Can I ask where Dr. Beams practices?

    Sure.  She has an office in Columbia and one in Laurel.  Not as convenient as my old pediatrician, who was 5 minutes away *if* we hit every traffic light, but I really like her more natural approach to pediatrics.  She also does a lot of research and is highly accessible (text messaging, email, etc).

    We go to Annapolis Peds.  Over the course of 3 yrs I have had 2 instances where I won't go back to the care provider we saw (one NP who was pushing rice cereal @ 4 months, a pedi who wasn't happy w/ DS not sleeping through the night.)  There is one NP that I love, and I really like some of the doctors...

    I was just torn after our last visit if I should keep going there (it was when I got the sleep lecture.)  It's super convenient and I have my dad (a family physician) as back up reassurance I am doing the right thing for my kids...  but I always feel like maybe I should look around.

    daisyterp...Do you mind sharing with me who at Annapolis Peds you didn't like?  I plan on using them since I live right near the Annapolis office.  I've heard mostly good reviews of them but if there are any negatives, I'd like to know who I might want to avoid.  You can PM me if you prefer not to post.  Thanks!

    Daisy what doc gave you crap about DS not STTN? You can PM me. Every time they asked about sleep I just answered "more or less" because DS was still waking up to nurse up til 8 months or so. I don't think pedis are sleep experts so I take their opinions on STTN with a grain of salt.

    That is tough..I would do what your gut is telling you.  It did take me a while to switch bc of the fact that my doctor is sooo close to our house but the hangups that I had w/our former ped. were pretty big to me so that is why I ultimately wanted to switch.
