So I'm pretty sure I've picked a pediatrician. :) I love Trenton's pediatrician. LOVE him. I went through SEVERAL pediatricians before I found him. But he's in Rockwall. And I've lived in Plano for years. I didn't mind the drive with just Trenton, but with the frequency that a baby visits the Doc, I thought it was time to find someone else. So I've been researching. And some people at work recommended Dr. Katz. He's in Plano, 10 minutes from our house.
Scott and I met with him this morning. And I'm sold. He spoke to me. Not he spoke to me like a potiential client or means of making money. He spoke to ME. He looked at my face, not a chart or the wall. He seemed relaxed and knowledgable and personable. Personable is important. My Trenton is social. He'll want to talk to this guy. I need someone that's going to talk back to him. And treat him like a PERSON and not just a "client". The place was clean. The people were friendly. We waited no more than 5 minutes. AND they're open Saturday mornings for sick kids. HUR-RAY!!
I'll miss Dr. Plieger. I adore him. An obvious family man, Christian, and genuinely attentive Pediatrician. But I think I'll be happy with Dr. Katz, as well. :)
It's so nice to put a big, fat checkmark next to something on my list of "To Do's". Next is childcare for when my maternity leave is over. But I have some time.
My doctor is already talking about scheduling when I'm getting induced. SOOO exciting. I love the thought of that so much more than just going into labor. I need to be able to plan. And, of course, we have to work around Scott's stupid football schedule. UGG!! I have no doubt the flatscreen in my room will have football on it and Scott will be propped up in the chair with the laptop displaying his fantasy football teams results on it. ::Rolls eyes:: And that's fine. As long as it's post epidural, it's just fine. Before that, he dies.
