Hi mama,
Congratulations!
I do not have experiences with this doctor. However, I would like to suggest that if you’re not feeling comfortable with her now - even when you’re just asking questions for knowledge - you may not ever feel comfortable with her.
Would changing doctors be an option for you? Also, have you thought about the kind of birth you want and if so, have you asked if she’s comfortable with the options you’ve chosen for yourself?
See, your medical team should be working WITH you and not just FOR you.
If we don’t let them know that they need to change the way they communicate and that we’re not comfortable, the automatic assumption is that they’re doing all the right things.
This is your birth and your body. A doctor can never feel the way you do. And she has to get cues from you to even diagnose anything. Find your voice mama.
