	There's a new doc in town. He 's an obstetrician, and you'll no doubt be in labor the first time you meet - US News ...
		Her obstetrician, whom she'd been seeing for routine care for more than four years, decided to stop delivering babies.
		Separating the prenatal care process and the actual birth is a smart solution for doctors who are frustrated by high malpractice premiums and burned out by the demanding lifestyle.
		It also may be a better deal for private obstetricians, who can opt to hand over labor supervision and the delivery--although many OBs still prefer to deliver their patients' babies.

	Midwife or Obstetrician: How to choose between a midwife and an obstetrician for your birth.
		Midwives tend to spend more time with you during labor and in prenatal visits than an obstetrician, who may be in and out of the birthing room until the final stages of pushing and birth.
		Obstetricians are more likely than midwives to use medical interventions such as inductions, continuous monitoring, episiotomies as well as recommend cesareans.
		For example, some obstetricians may be very supportive of natural birth and rarely perform interventions such as episiotomies.

	Chapter 1 - Preventive Law in the Medical Environment - Prenatal Care
		During the first visit to the obstetrician you will be required to provide detailed information about your insurance coverage so that the obstetrician can determine how much your insurance will cover and how much you must pay yourself.
		Once the obstetrician accepts you as a patient, the obstetrician will send you to the hospital where the baby will be delivered.
		The obstetrician can either send you to the center to be delivered or ask for emergency privileges (usually granted if a staff member of the facility attends the birth) and deliver you there personally.

	Choosing An Obstetrician – 11 Questions You MUST Ask
		Choosing an Obstetrician can be pretty daunting for some women, and going by a BellyBelly Forum poll, it seems that the highest percent of women are choosing Obstetricians based on recommendations from their friends.
		However, an Obstetrician that may have been ideal for your friend’s birth may not be ideal for yours, because not everyone will have the same experiences or preferences for labour and birth.
		The best Obstetrician for a vaginal breech birth is one who is most experienced in breech birth – it becomes more risky when it is managed by someone who isn’t skilled in breech birth – breech birth ironically requires a more ‘hands off’ approach to the birth.

		Since your obstetrician will play an important role in your prenatal care as well as in the delivery of your baby, this decision is well worth your time and energy.
		Ask how many doctors will be in the rotation, because if you like one particular obstetrician in a practice of ten, there is only a one-in-ten chance you will get her on your delivery day.
		If at any point you find that you do not relate to your obstetrician or that he or she is not meeting your needs, consider getting a new doctor.

	BabyCenter -- Choosing an ob-gyn: Finding the right obstetrician (Site not responding. Last check: )
		If you see a gynecologist that you like and she's currently practicing obstetrics as well, you may want to ask her to care for you during your pregnancy, particularly if you're sure you want a doctor to attend the birth and you like the hospital where she delivers.
		For example, you may want to ask each ob-gyn whether she routinely uses interventions such as IVs and continuous electronic fetal monitoring, how often and under what circumstances she would do an episiotomy, and when she thinks a cesarean section is warranted.
		If the problem can't be resolved, or if your worries are not addressed, don't hesitate to change obstetricians or consider whether a midwife might be a better fit for you.
