My wife's doctor has changed her due date three or four times. He's also told her she has gestational diabetes; although, according to two different glucometers, her sugar is at a normal and healthy level. She is currently 36-weeks pregnant (if we go by the latest due date), yet she measures at 33-weeks pregnant. Also, he has said that he's going to induce her a week before her due date because of her "diabetes"--even though, he knows she had our first 2-1/2 weeks early. AND he's suggested things for her to do to induce herself (sex, walking, and nipple stimulation). We've done the first, but not to induce. We believe it's too early to be trying to induce. I just wanted to know if it's possible for us to change doctors even though it's a bit late into the pregnancy. I'm not sure I trust his judgement anymore. He was fine with the first pregnancy, but with this one, he's just gone overboard. Am I right to feel this way? What should we do?
