Pregnant after IF

would you switch your OB if...
Would you switch your OB if you hated their scheduling, the appt times always make me miss work, and they are not flexible to work with you at all, and I hate the woman who does the u/s. She was mad at me and super rude to us the first time we met her. I was scheduled for my NT exam last week during week 11 and after both my DH and I took off of work for it, she said I was too early for it (before even looking at an u/s she said 11w is just to early, ummm hello, I didnt tell you to do the scan at that time, the midwife said to schedule it 11-13w), When we got there she wouldn't do it and told me to come back at week 13!! I am off this week because I am a teacher and she refused to schedule me this week, I am 12w2d today, but instead insists I have to come next week when my vacation is over and take off another day of work. I have seen 1 midwife, she's 1 out of 4 and she is super nice, but its a really small office and I know I will have to work with the u/s woman more and I am dreading it!! I am already nervous for the NT scan and now I am more nervous- is she not skilled enough to do the exam earlier than 13w? is their technology not advanced enough? I know they are not big into technology to begin with, which has always made me a little hesitant, but this has really ticked me off! Thanks for listening! Would you go to a new person? I made an appt with someone new for next week, but I don't know if I am overreacting.

Re: would you switch your OB if...
I would switch too...sounds like way too much of a hassle.
One of the u/s techs at my MFM/Peri's office is a huge b!tch as well so after the second time with her (the first was our NT scan where she didn't say a word and didn't let us even see the screen) I asked the front desk to please not ever schedule us with her ever again. Fortunately, there are 3 techs so I have never had to see her again, thank God!
GL with whatever you decide...after having a very high risk pg, I can say I am so grateful for the staff at both my OB and MFM's offices as well as the actual doctors. It would have been so much harder to get through without everyone's support.
I know I'm coming to the party late, but I would definitly switch! In fact, I'm switching next week at 28 weeks!
If you are unhappy for any reason, make the switch. I had a bad feeling about my OB early on, but decided to stick it out. Now, months later, I wish I would have switched a lot earlier. I'm glad you are going with your gut.
