My doctor was so angry with me. He couldn’t believe I didn’t take that test. “How could you let this happen?” He yelled at me. “You’re 40!”

I've experienced this kind of attitude from a doctor. It's ugly.

“I’ve experienced this kind of attitude from a doctor. It’s ugly.”

Yes, I have as well. I was 37 and pregnant with my third child. All I heard is “Your elderly for childbearing” and the “Baby could have all kinds of problems”. I had amnio and they tested for over 20 different diseases. The baby was fine, but because of all the tests, I started bleeding and almost lost her.
