Recommendations for a gynecologist in the fairfax/ Oakton area? Specific doctor/ practice recs that you have been going to would be awesome. My husband and I are starting to plan a baby and I expect my journey to be long drawn out and difficult. Im really hoping to find a supportive gynecologist. While I am not very particular about gender, proximity and experience will be a big factor. To be honest, I’m very scared about the process and really need all the help and patience I can get.

I'd skip the gyno and go right to a fertility guy! I recommend Dr Butler but he's all the way out in DC...no free parking either

I have referred a ton of friends to Dr. Winterling at Healthcare for Women . Not for fertility stuff but I find her super down to earth and straightforward.

I’m currently 7 weeks pregnant, so it’s still too early to make any announcement.

Now people are reaching out to me or I do see job postings that I would love to apply to, but if it gets to the point where I am offered the job, do I tell them I’m pregnant right away? Would they not want to hire me anymore? I want to be honest

I love my job and the people I work with, but there’s one thing that really bothers me: the lack of diversity. Sometimes when I walk into the office and see everyone else around me as the only POC, it feels kind of weird. I don’t think anyone here has ever said anything racist or sexist to me personally, but I don’t feel comfortable talking about these issues with anyone because they might take it personally and then things could get awkward between us.
