Pediatrician? Any advice..

Well I am more than likley going to be induced in about 2 weeks.. I have been stressing about a pediatrician.. Do I need to get one myself before she is born or will the hospital give me one at birth? Any help?

That was not even something I thought about while I was pregnant with my daughter, for some strange reason. I actually went with the one that did Navia's first check ups while in the hospital because I really liked him. They also offered me a list of them just in case I didn't already have one. I don't know if all hospitals do that though.

Good luck!!

There will be one present at the hospital at birth, but youwill need to find one for continuing care. Babes are usually seen a week after birth by pediatrician.
