Induction Scheduling Help - Reiter Hill and Sibley Issues

The scheduler emailed me right away and I immediately submitted my three preferences but it’s been over a week and they still haven’t confirmed a date for me. If I didn’t have a medical condition and risk factors I wouldnt care, but I’ve been told I’m at risk for still birth and that feels pretty serious to me… WTF is taking so long to get a date scheduled? Is this normal? Should I be calling nonstop? I feel so helpless and worried and stressed. I just want to make sure baby is delivered safely and this feels incredibly negligent.

Yes, I also had a bad scheduling experience with Reiter/Hill, office out of Falls Church. They told me the date/time of appointment but didn't put it on calendar, had no record.

How did you find out that it wasn’t recorded? At the hospital? What ended up happening?

It took a few days to schedule just because the hospital, etc. And you need to mentally prepare for the fact that even once it is scheduled there is a high likelihood you will get bumped from 12-48 hours later, like I was. Hospitals are still understaffed and they take active labor patients before they take inductions.

+1. This was exactly my experience and not with Reiter Hill.

Do you think your OB’s office is reading here or something, lady?
