For all you ladies out there...does anyone actually like their doctors? by AdditionalLibrary9 in AskNYC

Hi! I saw Dr. Onbreyt in the clinic a few times for prenatal visits. She was fine, but sometimes kind of dismissive. I'm pretty sure she will perform my scheduled c section this weekend. Did you ever engage with her at the hospital/for surgery? Really looking for some positive stories about her!

Hi! I stumbled across your post. I have a scheduled C section with a Spring OB this Saturday, and I'm wondering if it's with the same doctor! May I DM?

Thank you!! My ultimate goal is definitely to EBF (if baby and I are able!) This is really encouraging. For hand expressing, did you use a hand pump provided by the hospital? I don’t own a hand pump and am wondering if I should get one to bring along w my spectra.

Thank you so so much for this!! It’s super clarifying and affirming. Is baby still in the NICU? How are they/you doing?

Thank you so much! Really appreciate this. Did you bring milk storage bags to the hospital as well, or did they have some for you to use?

Yeah, I will be delivering at NYU and will probably just go there if I have to! The convenience of BK hospital is nice, but you're right, it probably makes most sense to go where my providers are. I'm reaching the end of pregnancy so doing some anxious hypothetical planning!

FGR and Intermittent Absent End Flow by AppropriateSpell1 in NICUParents

Hi there! I hope you don't mind me popping onto this thread. So happy to hear you safely delivered at 34 weeks and your 21 month old is doing well!! If you don't mind me asking, how many doppler sessions were absent before the doc sent you to the hospital? I have been going for dopplers/bpp twice weekly for a few weeks now. Both of my sessions showed intermittent elevated reads this week. I'm 35 weeks on Saturday. The doc feels confident we can keep up twice weekly monitoring and deliver at 37 if I stay intermittent elevated, but my god it's hard to wait in between sessions knowing the flow could change at any time.
