If they have given you grief in the past than I would consider not taking them back after you have had your baby. I am very hesitant to take on families that do not have a back up.

Getting snippy with me over days that I am closed or not paying in advance would be enough to annoy me and to term. I can't remember the last time I had a sick day but next Monday I am closed for a specialist appt and thankfully none say anything about this. It is a specialist appt that I will likely need to go too every 3-4 months though and they all know this. It is in a city 2 hours away from me and I am not allowed to drive after so my fiance has too take the day off as well. Parents need to realize that we are people too and will need to see doctors from time to time and will have to close. Having your child in a hdc requires a backup in my opinion.
