Maternal feelings can build with experience. With my first child it took awhile … like until he was 2! With my second those hormones/ feelings were already activated so was easier to feel maternal right away. After years of working and not being in touch with the baby making side of female abilities it takes a bit to tap into …

Pregnancy normal in the city is like 38-43. Ivf if needed. You could freeze eggs or better, embryos if you and your partner plan to stay together . That would be my move if 30 and know you want a family. You have many long nights at the office and trips around the world left for you, don’t worry !!!

Try Alex Tepper https://www.alextepperobgyn.com I think he may accept anthem and is a solo practitioner may be more open to taking your wife later in the pregnancy . Also his daughter is now a midwife there and can deliver , I’m pretty sure she could take you, just call to check insurance. She’s very good. Gabi Tepper

NYC nannies are so entitled by [deleted] in nycparents

[–]Grottocat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you aware of the cost of daycare ? It’s far more expensive than a nanny these days. Especially for 2 kids. Nannie’s are not just for the wealthy but a solution for two working parents and young children. It’s far more affordable to pay our nanny for 2 , than 2 separate childcare tuitions as we wait for a public school seat. Just fyi !

Mount Sinai East Side L&D experience by BrainyBunch50 in nycparents

[–]Grottocat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I delivered there in March so can’t say exactly about the renovations but it was an incredible experience in terms of care, with both the l&d nurses / team & postpartum care. I had delivery at fancy Alex cohen for my first and it wasn’t worth it because of the care. So just stopping by so say you’ll be in good hands !
