[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are only 5 weeks. How long have you been pregnant that you have been waiting for a call back? You literally just peed on a stick. No doctor is going to hunt you down and want you to choose them. Leave a message, they will call back. I do not know why you want to choose a hospital. All doctors know how to deliver, so you get the one close to home. Were you planning this child that you have no clue what happens after you pee on a stick?[/quote]

Wow. You're a peach! I've known I was pregnant for a week now and made phone calls the first day because I was very excited as this is my first pregnancy. I think that's pretty normal. What isn't normal, at least I didn't think it was, was to get no call backs in a week. I was planning to have this child but am also doing this for the first time so don't know everything. I don't have an informed opinion about the hospitals in the DMV but I do know there are differences between them. Isn't WHC a teaching hospital? Is that good or bad or have any impact for me (I have no idea). I know each OB is affiliated with a specific hospital, so picking one (an OB or a preferred hospital) seems to limit your options for the other. It feels like a lot of big decisions early on, but hearing from other posters that there is still flexibility and that I can change has been helpful. [/quote]
