Default When Do I Choose a Pediatrician?

My baby isn't due for another three weeks but I am wondering when it would be the best time to choose a pediatrician and how to go about it. As this will be our first child we have no experience with pediatricians yet.

You should go ahead and check out some pediatricians now. Get some recommendations from friends or even from your obstetrician (or her nurses or any moms you run into!). Most pediatricians will schedule time for you to come in and meet them, tour their office and chat about their practice. You’ll fill out all of the preliminary paperwork now. You can find out if a particular pediatrician comes to your chosen hospital or birth center to check out newborns. (If you like a pediatrician a lot but he/she doesn’t have privileges at your birth hospital, it’s not that big of a deal. The hospital will have some pediatrician caring for your baby (your chosen doctor may even be able to recommend someone they know and trust who has privileges there). And then you can schedule your baby’s follow-up appointments with your chosen pediatrician according to their recommended follow-up and well baby check schedule.
