hi...
I didnt have barely any symptoms. I did however notice Montgomery’s Tubercles on my nipples and they were tingly. but that is it. I am (a healthy fetal heartbeat!) 8 weeks pregnant and still have mild symptoms. slight to no nausea and some breast tenderness, but nothing big.
oh yeah,
i was super tired...asleep by 7.
good luck.

Thanks for all of the great support. This is all good info...particularly the staying home for most of your labor part. Before I received these messages I was leaning towards dr. Ron Jacobs...now I've got some rethinking to do. This shouldnt be so hard. ugh.
Thanks for your input. It will surely help me make an informed decision.
keep it coming, folks!

That is interesting. I have heard that they do not allow midwives to deliver in holy cross...so within this practice, you have the option to see a midwife, but inly up until it's time to deliver and then you switch to an OB? Perhaps she can help you to stay at home in labor until it's late enough to go to the hospital and not be bothered with interventions? or maybe she could even help me deliver at home? Is this right? ooohhh.... so many options!
Sorry to hear about how rude that one was to your husband. That is horrible.
I think I got this quote thing wrong.
Hi ,
I am new to the site and newly pregnant...just 8 weeks along. This is my first pregnancy and I have recently been "discharged " by my wonderful fertility specialist, Dr, Abbasi. I am now in search for an OB in the silver spring area. I want a natural childbirth and originally thought of a midwife. With the recent closings of birth centers in my area...I though I would go with a flexible OB in support of natural childbirth. My gut tells me that I want to deliver at Holy Cross as it is only 5 miles from my home. I have heard of Midwifery care associates in Rockville, but they deliver out of Shady Grove and while about 17 miles away, I think that is too far, but am unsure. I have been reading posts looking for recommendations and have found these doctors:
Dr. Laurie Tyau
Dr Ronald Jacobs
Drs. Heather Sine or Darryn Band
Dr. Morales
dr. Michele Klein
any OB at ob/gyn associates
anyone had a any good or bad experiences with these folks particularly wit a natural birth? Any others to recommend? I have Carefirst Blue Choice.
I have been a patient of Dr. Potts at Capital Women's Care on Lockwood drive and was disappointed with her care...she pumped full of fertility drugs for many cycles before giving me an ultrasound. And I saw Dr Seidel once and it was a whirlwind experience. I felt too rushed an unimportant. My wonderful specialist did an ultasound on my first visit and found I have polycystic ovaries, so I am not going back there despite the good recommendations I have seen on this forum.
Thanks in advance for your helpful feedback.

I was diagnosed with low progesterone. I saw Dr Abbasi at columbia fertility. She was great. I am taking 200 mg of progesterone twice daily and am 7 weeks pregnant with good hormom=ne levels. I heard the baby's heartbeat this week and am feeling hopeful. I will take the progesterone until week 10 of my pregnancy.
