Strange orders from Obstetrician???

[katti]

My OB was also very strict about weight. Although he didn't say how many calories, he was always upset when I put on more then I should have. My family still talks about the "yoghurt with fresh fruit" I ate when we were on a gastronomical weekend .

On the other hand he was very strict about taking the vitamines : although I threw up every time I had them that was no excuse not to take them.

In the end I was really happy because although I didn't fit into my jeans right after I gave birth, it didn't take much time for my body to recover. For some people it might not be important but I was really happy to have my same old body back after I had 2 kids.

But if you are having doubts about this OB (which you seem to have), then I suggest you change. It is very important to feel good with him and to have full confidence. If not you might regret it later.

Good luck !!

I had a baby 5 weeks ago and had Dr Cattaneo as by Ob. He was excellent. Very good at listening and responding to my wishes. I am with Swiss Med. He is based in Cabello in Recoleta and is part of Dr Frid's team. You have to find someone you feel comfortable with that is by far the most important thing as you are still at the beginning and if you are questioning his judgement already then it will only get worse.
