1. What type of practice is it?
2. What are the office hours?
3. Can I call for help in the night?
4. Will they see baby in the hospital?
5. Is there support for breastfeeding, circumcision, etc.?
6. Do they take your insurance?
At my first prenatal appointment, my Obgyn office gave me a huge packet about 50 pages of typed info. He had a whole page on Pediatrician's he works with closely and recommended. He included numbers and addresses. It was very helpful to me as I am expecting my first. There are about 80 Pediatrician's in a 15 mile radius and my Obgyn narrowed it down to his top 10.
When I was 8 weeks pregnant (first baby) my OBGYN asked me who was going to be the babys pediatrician (Not something I expected to be asked so early!)... I had no clue whatsoever how I was going to choose something like that. Thanks for the video! I am finding your channel very helpful in preparing for baby to arrive!
ive been watching lots of videos from different people about pregnancy, birth, and newborns. i by far love your videos the most. very informative and giving me a different perspective and foundation to do my own research. also love the range of content. thank you both!!
Thanks for the recommended questions! I'm starting my calls today, this is exactly what I needed.
Thank you Drs, I love all your videos, they have been great help!
Thank you so much for your helpful videos! First time mom to be here and I was wondering about this, though I live in Canada I’m sure a lot of this info apply for us ❤️
Thanks for sharing this valuable information
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful!
I gave birth 4 weeks ago and we hadn’t chosen a pediatrician so the nurses were asking me to select one from a page of photos immediately after I gave birth (like within minutes of putting baby on my chest) lol. Looking back it makes me laugh a little but we ended up with a great pediatrician who was new at her office and accepting new patients. We may eventually switch to a family medicine doctor at the same office I go to but haven’t decided yet.
I have a question, if pediatricians (or any physician for that matter) did not pass their board certification exam, are they only allowed to practice for training purposes until they retake their exam?
Super helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome! Hope you find a great pediatrician!! We haven't picked one yet--it's a tough decision.
@@TheDoctorsBjorkman Hi. I hope you can help me Doc to answer my questions.. This is not about the content of your video but since you are a doctor i just want to ask for clarification..
*I had my last Period Dec. 16, 2020 and i had spotting January 2 and 3 then i had a contact with my bf same day on January 3 2021 then jaunary 4 it stop my spotting. I should expect my period this January 13 but until now January 21 i dont have period. Do you think Doc im pregnant ? Does it have the chance of pregnancy? I hope you can answer my questions.. Thank you very much in advance.*
Every woman's ovulation time is a little different and sperm can live in a woman's reproductive tract for up to 5 days! With 'the fertile window' usually right in the middle of your cycle, any unprotected sex around this time could lead to pregnancy. If you're late, there's no harm to taking a home pregnancy test to find out.
Is it better to choose a pediatrician in a big hospital or a smaller practice? What are the pros and cons of each?
My feedback (my child is under 1yrs of age): Choose a pediatrician in a children's hospital?
This way, you have a whole massive range of pediatric specialities within the same medical network.
Referrals from your pediatrician to other specialities (trust me on this, your child sooner or later will need to see doctors with other specialities, as they develop), will be easy if they are all in house.
This is my best tip to any new parent
I was pregnant on the fifth of April, and after five weeks my husband returned from travel and had foreplay, next day I was bleeding non stop It was not much until the 29th of May age
After 7 weeks The doctor told me that the fetus died in the fifth week, and I took medication to open the uterus and I did miscarriage , I was bleeding until Sunday June second the doctor said that ovulation is next Sunday, but on Monday I bleed some light spotting of blood until the fourth day I had Intercourse so I got more bleeding .
My menstruation is usually light for 3 days. What should I do in order not to repeat the miscarriage experience? Was foreplay the cause of uterine bleeding? Do you think I didn’t have ovulation after the miscarriage? It was a regular mistake from the doctor? Or he doesn’t do a good job to calculate. Please give me your opinion
“Physician Associates” 👏🏻 thanks for being an early adopter of our new name!!
I ask my doctors numerous times for a list of meds . They ignored me. They hsvent done an ultrasound on me since 8 weeks.........
In a normal healthy pregnancy they typically do ultrasounds at 8-12 weeks for dating, 20 weeks for anatomy, and sometimes they will do further scans if necessary. I know its hard to wait but it will be worth it when you see your baby again!
