[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] At Georgetown, I understood very clearly that some doctors saw themselves as my doctor, while others viewed themselves as the baby's doctor. A situation arose during my three-day induction, when I decided to ride out the time of the doctor on duty to get the care I needed. After delivery, a nurse did come to me to ask about Obama. I'm black, maybe that's why?!!! He was newly-elected, so maybe she was doing this to everyone? She was quite young and seemed sweet. Never asked about the birth or the baby. She pulled my blanket straight then launched into a diatribe about how sad it was that Obama was going to kill all of the babies. I held my firstborn in my arms and remained silent until she wandered out. I used one of those feedback cards to state my discomfort and note how inappropriate I thought it was for her to talk about such things as a representative of the hospital. They also had very strange policies about cord blood donations. It had something to do with stem cells. [/quote] I had no issues with cord blood there. It is a completely separate source of stem cells than those from aborted fetuses. When expected my younger DD, we were encouraged to bank hers due to her rather unusual mixed ancestry.[/quote] We also had no issues with that at G'town. The only issue we had was with our premature baby because we didn't have everything set in place yet when he arrived so unexpectedly early. And they were amazing in that crisis, by the way.[/quote]
