I chose recommendation from others, location, bedside manner and skill.
For our first littl'n, we chose our
ob. purely through recommendation as we also had no idea where to begin and whilst the
ob was skilled, I didn't feel like I received all the info I needed as the
pg went along. (had a few friends
pg at the same time and they were getting lots more info from their obs)
So as I've been there done that

I now know what it is I really want and need so will be having a different
ob. when the time comes for #2!
A different
ob has been recommended to us from a midwife friend so guess you can say I have some inside info on this one! Teehee!! This
ob is closer and is more personal which suits me to a tee!
