switching doctors need advice!

Okay so I am 23 weeks and 4 days along with our precious little girl and my boyfriend recently has a great job offer, which we are very excited about but we would have to relocate. I am just wondering if anyone has had to move later on their pregnancy and found a doctor they actually liked, I'm sort of stressing a little bit because basically the doctor I choose we will have to stick with because by the time we move I will be about 7 months!

I saw my primary doctor until I was 28 weeks because she studied OB and was aloud to see patients up until 28 weeks and then I called around to different clinics and found an amazing OB that I absolutely loved for my last 12 weeks! Maybe call your clinics and ask the schedulers who they recommend or who is most often booked... Usually those are the doctors everyone wants and if you schedule your appointments ahead of time you shouldn't have an issue getting in with them even if they're popular (:

I'm going to I think I'm going to see if my doctor already can recommend me to someone. I really hate to switch because I really like my doctor but it's an opportunity that if he doesn't take it now then he might not get the chance again.

I didnt switch at 7 months but i switched at 5 i have medicaid so i couldn't be to picky but i did try to do as much research as possible before the move and also looked at reviews and info online to help me pick...i ended up having to be seen by a high risk dr once i did find a dr so my efforts were kind of wasted lol
