Does anybody think it's possible to find a good OB this late in the game?

I want an office that has a staff there all the time. Not a week off for "spring break". A Dr that is less than 1-2 hours behind. After my experience with Andrew, I would have switched to a different Dr after I had him. But I loved the NP, I really like the Dr. The NP is now gone. The staff has gotten worse. IDK, different people, more rushed, less caring, more mistakes.

Maybe they see people with problems all the time, but this is my BABY, and I want her taken care of. I feel like I put up with a lot, but if I call, it really is because I think something is really wrong.

I doubt you'll check Thursday chat, but yes.  I found my new OB as a result of moving at 36 weeks pregnant and I adore her more than anything!  It was scary, but for us it worked :)

My insurance changed and I had to change drs. somewhere around where you are.  I ended up with all kinds of issues and on bed rest and liked the way the new office handled it all way better then the old one would have. So yes I think it is possible

I was on bedrest with Andrew. I'd go in and want to lay down in a room, and they'd tell me there was no available room. But the desk lady would say "sorry" in that sing song voice, that means not sorry at all, KWIM? I should have switched Drs after I had Andrew, but...

Do I call and tell them up front, I need a c/s, have problems, am old, ect....????

YEs I would defintiely call and talk to someone in the office. Let them know you are unhappy with your current practice but don't bash them too much because Drs. talk LOL.  Explain the situation and make sure they are ready and prepared to take you on as a patient. 

(((HUGS))) and good luck
