Hi mamas! I need some quick advice...I'm really upset with my OB right now. I think I mentioned here about the black mold exposure I had from 12-24 weeks pregnant and the whole crappy ordeal that that has been...well, it's gotten worse - now my OB seems to be in on the little "conspiracy theory."
Basically, the owners of the building have tried to cover up the situation and have really done us dirty. We lost most everything in the incident, were homeless for a month and then forced to move in with my parents when they lied about the clean-up, our health has been comprimised, etc. I THOUGHT that my OB actually gave a flip, but evidently not...it's become a case of small town politics.
Seems the lawyer for the building owners is also the lawyer for my OB...guess they are buddy-buddy and a phone call was made somewhere during the course of all of this. I don't know what was said, but it has changed my OB's "bedside manner" with me - he is very cold and short and acts like I'm a major inconvenience to him.
He started acting differently towards me at my last app't...and now I really think something is up. See, I was supposed to see a specialist about the effects the mold had had on the baby. My app't was to be today. I get a call from them on Wednesday saying that they weren't sure why I was being reffered to them. I told them it was for the mold exposure and they replied that there was nothing in my records from my OB about the mold. ???? Seems he has "failed" to put anything in there about it...even though three whole app'ts with him centered around it. A cover up as well?? That's what I'm thinking. the specialist refuses to even TALK to me about the exposure because it isn't in my chart...so now we are screwed out of getting help for our baby.
Isn't this fun? I'm 32 weeks and thinking I don't have a ton of time left. I delivered DS #1 at 36 weeks. This baby is already engaged and I'm dilated to 2cm. Should I switch to a new OB at this late in the game or just stick it out with this other one?
I kind of need to make the decision today because they have to print my new medicaid card and need to know which doctor to put on it. ARGH...I hate making quick decisions...I'd go into it blind...not knowing this other OB's philosophies, etc. I just really don't know what to do...but I feel very betrayed by my current OB.
