Guest_780 : I am pregnant about 26 weeks. I did not find out I was pregnant til January 25. I also found out on the same day that my baby is due May 20. My previous doctor said he would see me at first so I went to my appointment. Then his front office nurses told me he couldnt see me because i had not recieved my soonercare card yet and to call back when i get it. I had recieved it yesterday and i called them and they told me that my doctor would not see me because i am so far along. I have been listening

Guest_4174 : I am guessing that Lawton is too far of a drive for midwives in Oklahoma City?
Guest_4174 : Do you know of any midwives in Lawton? I am not pregnant so "no rush"
Guest_98 : It probably went to my spam folder. I hope you get this because I still need help with a doc to examine the baby after an unassisted home birth.
Guest_98 : Lori,
Guest_98 : Hi, I will likely be giving birth at home and would like to know if you can recommend any doctors who can examine the newborn for the birth certificate that don't look down on home birth or parents who choose not to vaccinate. I appreciate any suggestions you may have. Devra
Guest_98 : Hi,
Guest_98 : Do you have any recommended home birth/non-vaccin ation supportive doctors who can administer the live baby exam? I will likely be having my baby at home again and just need the exam for the birth certificate purposes.
Lori : How do I get in touch with you via email? I tried before and never got a response.
Margarett : Weather Advisory if Putnam City and/or OKC schools are closed, we are too! Stay safe and warm!!!
Guest_848 : I was wondering if it is safe to take maalox and tums while pregnant and if so, how much and how often? Also, due to morning sickness and lactose intolerance, I am having a really tough time getting enough nutrients. Is my prenatal vit. going to be enough. Thanks, essica
April : Hello! I have a question about my insurance - please give me a call when you get a chance. Thanks!

Beverly : Hello, I am looking for help with natural herbs and things to use with pregnancy, miscarriage, etc. Do you offer this type of service? Thank you
