My doctor has been bugging me to find a family doctor for us since the beginning of my pregnancy. I'm 30 weeks and there are doctors in the same building as my maternity clinic that are accepting new families so I finally made an appointment to meet with them ! My doctor told me it wasn't a huge hurry but sooner is better than later because you have to take the time to meet with them and find one you like, and you'll want to be set up with them before your baby is born as your ob will only see you like once after you deliver
