How do you want to be supported?
Here are our some questions we find helpful to ask your providers. We suggest reading through this list and picking one or two that resonate with you to ask each visit, rather than bringing them all in all at once. Our recommendation is to pay attention to how your provider makes you feel- Do you feel listened to? Dismissed? Do they make time for you? Do they explain your choices in a way that makes you feel like part of your own care, or do you leave with more questions than you arrived with? How they speak to you in their office prenatally is how they’ll speak when you’re in labor, and we think that’s the most important information of all.
