So which Dr delivers the babies?

So I went to my OB for the first time today after graduating from the RE. I was disappointed the I didn't get to hear them again, but at least I got to see them.

The OB said I needed to make an apt with a MFM. So I have done this and after I got off the phone from making the apt, I thought "Who delivers the babies, the OB or the MSM?"

TIA

the ob delivers the babies, the mfm monitors you more carefully to make sure all is going smoothly, they have more experience monitoring multiple and other high risk pregnancies

the OB. The MFM will monitor you during your pregnancy and as you get closer to the end you will be seeing them A LOT! LOL

when i was in the hospital before my twins were born the MFM docs came in to see me a few times a day.....after they decided (with my OB) that i needed a c/s that night the OB took over from there.

I'm guessing maternal fetal medicine.


Is it understandable why I'm lurking? Chat Icon

It's funny because I had no idea until Monday night when someone else posted about meeting their MFM. So I looked it up and now I have an apt with one.Chat Icon
