Seattle obgyn

Does anybody else go here and just get the message that they are shutting down permanently? I’m super panicked because it was super hard for me to find an ob the first time and now that I’m even further along I feel like there will be nobody available :/ if anybody has any recommendations for an ob near the Seattle or redmond area please let me know 🙏

Yes I did for my care & im so sad to hear about the news . & how many months are you ? My doctor there was Dr. Joelle Thomas .

I am 5 months rn and I was seeing dr. Droz

There are some great doctors here that I would trust: dr Katherine Schwab, and dr.norland. The Neighborcare midwives are also great, and I particularly recommend Katherine Winters, Nicola Solvay, and Kelley Robinson.

I highly recommend UW Medical Center Obstetrics and Gynecology. They have 4 locations ( 2 in north Seattle, Ballard, and Mill Creek). Great providers, nurses, and medical assistants.

I went there too! Just hit second trimester and panicking :/

oh no!!! I hope you can find another good doctor

same 😭 it’s super concerning but I wish you luck in your search for a new doctor as well :)

I work with this group at first hill. I would follow their recommendations and go to Northwest Women’s Healthcare > sounds like some of the docs may be going over there, and Polyclinic is fabulous!

thank you! I plan on calling them first thing in the morning

It’s probably to not create bias. It’s too bad.

I love Northwest Women’s Healthcare

Love my husband. Love my kids. But…

I’m 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I take care of my 4 yo, 2 yo, and 1 yo. I barely have energy to stand anymore. I cuddle and watch movies with my kids all day at this point. My husband is less pushy in this pregnancy in wanting to be touched or love up on me. But I feel more like a tool these days more than ever. He gets frustrated (not to a crazy degree) but I can tell he huffs because he’s probably sexually frustrated from me not wanting to be touched on. (my boobs are super sensitive atm) I love having the babies part, but the pregnancy also now has me feeling like a baby making machine. And a tool with big boobs made for touches and my husbands pleasure. Ofc I love my husband and kids, but with my hormones all wack, it really doesn’t feel the same when you’re not turned on. It’s so hard for me to get turned on. I’m uncomfortable all the time in my own body. Babies moving in there all the time. My children cuddle me all day but get rowdy at the end of the day, so I end up getting touched out and I can get irritable when my husband tries to touch me affectionately. He doesn’t have the tact necessary for me right now, when I wish he wanted to go in for a normal comforting hug I’m let down more often than not, there is almost always a boob groping involved as well. I tried to just let him touch me last night so he could get it out of his system, but he could tell I felt tense. Wish my boobs weren’t such an uncomfortable place for me to be touched. Idk why I’m making this post. Probably just to vent. Wish men were equally as emotionally intelligent as women. Wish I didn’t feel like I still owe him something because he’s picking up a lot of the house load and yet I still need to ask him to do more before these twins arrive. He’s tired every day when he comes home, so he takes a shower sometimes works out, and helps get the kids to bed. So it’s a struggle getting him to help any further than that. Weekends are my only time to get to him. But it’s a struggle to find time on weekends too. I know if he wanted to he would. But there’s just no drive.

Maternity leave Employment rights?

I have 6 weeks left of work and they have completely changed my job spec including my job title and all my responsibilities, they have done this ahead of advertising my maternity cover apparently to fit business needs which I am fine with but i explained as long as it doesn’t effect me before I go. They have now turned round and said they want me to do the training for it before I go and want me to sign a variation in contract asap. Are they allowed to do this? I thought you had the right to come back to the same job within 26 weeks and I haven’t even left yet and they’re changing it? I was going to see what the job was when I got back and go from there but now they’re wanting me to sign this change in contract before I go I don’t know what to do, do I have to sign it ?

I’ve loss it finally

Please help me good or bad advice I need it !!!

Is it just me?

I’m 35. I have a 21 month old and i’m 5 months pregnant. I have no friends. Everyone has either drifted away or ghosted me. I don’t know what i’ve done but i’m so lonely now. My best friend of 20 years has ghosted me and i’m heartbroken. I’ve tried to reach out to other friends but never get anywhere. I don’t know how to make new friends. I honestly just feel so alone.
