1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? I see several doctors in a practice there only one we like the others could really give a damn about you as long as they get paid?
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? Hmmm, I would say his procrastination, however it comes in handy sometimes.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? The carribean, anywhere in the Carribean
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? I actually have a few that I must watch (love and hip hop, little woman LA, impractical jokers(not sure if that counts as one), Real housewife's of ATL)

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? So far I love him but I haven't had any long discussions, just general questions
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? Be more social, he's an introvert, I'm an extrovert haha
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? I'd love to live by water. DH would love to live in Ireland or the UK
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? It depends on the show. Mostly I love them but there are some I give the extreme side eye to (Honey Boo Boo I'm looking at you)

Lol @ Honey Boo Boo. I'm so there with you, also I'm addicted to all cooking shows (chopped, guys grocery games, cutthroat kitchen, etc.)

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? There are 3 that I see at my practice that deliver babies. I strongly dislike one, but love the other two.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? His ability to use the kitchen and NOT make a mess.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Southern Cali or St. John USVI
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? Love them. Almost all of them. It is a weakness.

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? I love my MW. One of the reasons I moved from the OB practice was that I just felt like a number. My MW has been nothing short of amazing through my prenatal care, birth and post partum. I'm so sad I didn't know her when I had DS. And not that I have any desire to have more kids, we're done at 2, but I'm actually kind of bummed that I'm basically done working with her.


2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? He's very laid back, but sometimes a little too laid back - there are times where it drives me crazy.


3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? New York. We lived there several years ago for grad school and while I love where we live now, I do miss it terribly.


4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? I hate them. There is not a single one I watch.

I LOVE cooking shows, and pretty much anything on HGTV. I've been watching MasterChef Junior and seriously doubting my skills as an adult hahaha

[osumegs]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? Overall I like her. I've met her two partners now, both of which I like as well.

2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? right now, the hour he spends hitting snooze in the morning

3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Savannah, Georgia or somewhere with a similar feel

4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? they annoy me (minus 19 kids and counting) but I get sucked into them a lot

The kids make me question my skills as well.

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner?
There are 6 doctors in my practice. I like most of them except one can rush you a little during appointments and the other is very young. The others are really great at take the time to spend answering questions.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be?
My DH tries really hard to understand what I am going through but doesn't always get it. I wish he would do more reading about pregnancy so maybe he'd understand what's been happening to me. We took a childbirth class and that seemed to help him grasp what is happening to my body.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
I really like where I live (eastern PA) its beautiful, close to major cities but still quiet and suburban. I would love a vacation house by the beach so I could have a change of scenery whenever I wanted.
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows?
Depends on the show. Some I like, others I hate. I generally don't watch a lot of reality TV but do love Pit bulls and Paroles. Granted there is always "drama" but in the end its real people doing good work for the animal world.

[dreemkin]

1. She's mostly nice but no warm and fuzzis with her. I don't like that she never believes me: "that doesn't sound like it to me", "that doesn't convince me", "doesn't sound like enough time for progress". I'm done with her after this year though. Switching insurance.
2. I wish he was a little more affectionate on a daily basis. For example, I rub or scratch his back when we're on the couch or pat his arm when I walk by. I always have to ask. For once I want him to rub my swollen feet w/o asking.
3. I like being a Midwesterner but maybe one day we can be snowbirds.
4. I like some of them. Survivor and master chef junior. It's hard to keep up with them though since I feel really behind if I miss one episode.

[hernsy]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? I adore my OB. I trust him completely. Even when I question him, he is patient and confident.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? DH is a champion procrastinator. It can make me crazy.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? On the beach. Directly on the beach. Emerald shores if I had to stay state side, but Caribbean in my dreams.
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? HGTV is about all I will watch. The other stuff isn't really reality.

[lilyelayne]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner?
I like my OB a lot. He's very knowledgable but laid back. I also went to grade school with his kids, so I've known him outside of his occupation for ~15 years, which is less weird and more reassuring than you might think.

2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be?
It's a toss up between being on his phone less & cleaning up when he drips on the toilet. I don't care that the seat is up & no one sits there, wipe it off!

3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
I like where I live, but I'd love to be by the ocean, specifically the Gulf of Mexico. If I had to live in a city, it'd be NoLa. I did like living in Paris, but it's far too cold there.

4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows?
Ugh. Not a fan. If I had to choose, some of the HGTV or cooking shows are tolerable for a bit.

[tammynixx]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? My office has a few. The one I had been seeing left the practice when I was 35 weeks. I have a new OB now who seems sort of awkward.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? I wish my DF wasn't so lazy. He is not good about cleaning.
3.  If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? I want to move back to MA.
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? It really depends I guess. What is considered reality tv? I love masterchef and cutthroat kitchen and ink master but I can't watch honey boo boo or toddlers and tiaras. They make me cringe. I also don't have cable so I guess my options are more limited anyway.

[seamonster]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? I like my OB. I know she'll really only be there to catch the baby, so hopefully the midwives at the hospital live up to their reputations.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? That's a tough one, but probably for him to be more physically affectionate on a daily basis. I'd like a (nice, not hard) backrub or footrub without asking for it. Right now I have to ask and he does straight for the deep tissue massage knowing that I hate deep tissue because it just makes everything hurt worse.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? If I had easy and ready access to NM food anywhere, I'd say Hawaii. Love the beach and love the mountains.
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? I can't get into them, but occasionally enjoy watching trainwrecky ones. If nothing else is on, I'll watch Keeping up with the Kardashians just because of how awful they are.

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? She's great, not to fussy. She treats me like an adult.
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? DH is the biggest time optimist I know. If I could get him to be on time more often, that would be great.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Somewhere close to water, far from civilization, that still has access to great communications like a subway and is close to shops and grocery stores and also close to everyone I know and love...
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? I avoid them for the most part, but can get sucked in if I have nothing better to do.

It's not Thursday anymore, but I'm going to play anyway...

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner?
I see a team of 3 midwives. They are all super awesome, but all have different personalities. One is very "old-school", but very helpful. One is a straight up hippy, but she's so nice and takes the time to really get to know you as more than a patient. The third one is really loud and out spoken, but super funny and keeps the mood light. I'm hoping for the hippy during labor.. lol

2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be?
He would pick up the dirty socks he leaves laying everywhere!!

3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
Somewhere with perfect weather? I don't even know where that would be.

4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows?
Reality TV sucks. It's awful and it shouldn't exist.

[mands1125]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner?- No issues there with any of them
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? - That he would put his clothes in the basket instead of two inches in front of the basket every single time.
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?- I am actually happy right here in the Philly suburbs!
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows?- I like a few guilty pleasures.

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner? No issues here
2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be? Right now, the snoring. Why can't he just sleep quietly?!
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Right now, it's 30 degrees outside. I would gladly settle for somewhere in Florida. However, most days I'm pretty content in Virginia
4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows? Cooking shows? Awesome. Here Comes Honey Boo Boo? Die.

I'm in VA too. Been here all my life... So if we moved out of state I'd be a-ok

[misshart00]

1. How do you feel about your OB/Midwife's bedside manner?
LOVE my OB. She really wants to reassure me about things and she has given me practical mom advice in the past too, as opposed to just medical.

2. If you could change one thing about your SO/DH/DF what would it be?
I honestly have no idea. Most of the stuff I get mad at him about is because of something stupid I did or said.

3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
I'm pretty happy in Oklahoma. But I wouldn't mind somewhere warm with a beach.

4. How do you REALLY feel about reality TV shows?
Depends on the show. I love most of hgtv and good network type stuff. Then there's shows I love to make fun of, like the bachelor. And then there's really stupid stuff I can't bear to watch.

Haha I lived in Florida from 2003-2011.  I love actually having seasons!

But then it's still 30 degrees in February and I wish I was back in Florida.
