As you become acquainted with the pediatrician you have chosen, you will also have a chance to discuss any concerns you have about the pregnancy, the baby and your future as a parent. This will help you to feel more relaxed when the time comes to give birth. The time also gives the doctor and staff an opportunity to get to know you, to learn your medical and social history, support system, and to ask about your expectations and worries. They will also discuss several topics of great importance to you and your baby.
