Is it normal to have switched doctorsa couple different times during the first five months?

I knwo I post A LOT. I'm just  curious about so many things!!

I first saw a doctor before we got pregnant, talked to him about getting preggo. then I saw him again for our 7 week ultrasound, then i saw a woman dr, who i didnt like that much, i switched to a different woman dr and have seen her twice. i like her but then i saw the male dr that i saw the first two times for my 20 week ultrasound and i want to see him for the rest of my pregnancy...is that normal??

i feel so bad when i see the other doctors in the hosp (bcuz they're all in the same clinic, and see me when i come in)...i just wanted to feel them out to see who i'm most comfortable and connected best with...who else has done this? and should i feel awkward or bad about switching?

I havent switched doctors since this pregnancy but I did switch while ttc. We had an awful experience with an evil doctor that performed our D&C back in early January and have switched to a much better office. We do now go to 2 different doctors - my normal OB and a High Risk OB because of the twins and multiple m/c. I dont mind at all, it just gets confusing when I have an appt im like "which one do I go to today?"  I wouldnt feel bad if I were you. You should feel completely comfortable with the doctor that you visit. If your not, it makes the experience unpleasant.

I switched docs when we were seeing REs because I wasn't happy with the first. Then when we went to find an OB, I didn't do consults because it was so expensive so I had two appointments set up in case I didn't like the first. Lucky for us, we loved my first OB and canceled the other appointment.  I don't know about switching so late but I would definitely want to be comfortable with my doc and would change in a heartbeat if I felt I'd get better care elsewhere.
