getting comfortable with your OBGYN

My OBGYN was the doctor that I dreaded going to for the longest time. I didn't enjoy the experience, nor do I think that many women do, but going to the OB shouldn't be a dreaded experience. It wasn't until I changed doctors that I learned that it can be a relatively pleasant and comfortable experience. This blog is all about OB care and advice that can help you find a good doctor and make each visit as helpful as it can be. You will learn what you should discuss with your doctor, what you can probably skip and when to know that it is time to move on to a new practice.
