Midwife and Doula near Palatine, IL

I've always visited an Ob-Gyn and am not familiar with midwives or doulas. Now that I'm pregnant, I've heard a lot of good things about midwives/doulas. If you've had experiences before, can you share the pros/cons from your point of view? Additionally, do you have a personal referral for a midwife and doula in the area that you can share? If you could also kindly describe reasons why you recommend them that would be very helpful as well. I live in Palatine but nearby suburb areas may work too. Thanks!!

Allergic to the Dog?

My 18-month old has a pretty-much contiuously runny nose. It usually combined with nasal congestion. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to bother her and it doesn't transform into infections or other problems. I suspect she may be allergic to our dog. Is there a way to tell? Is it possible to test for just a dog allergy? Or do I have to subject her to a huge painful test? I really don't want to do that, but if she is allergic I need to konow.

Therapist, Counselor, or Psychologist?

For a long time now I have felt like "talking with someone" would help me deal with some of my issues and tendencies in my life. I tend to overreact to negative things, I have a bad temper, and worst of all, I fixate on the past and stress about the future - even the distant future, like 20-30 years from now, what will this or that aspect of my life be like - instead of enjoying the present. I really want to try to "work on" these things so I've decided that it's time to go ahead and DO IT. My question is what kind of provider would be...

What to Do About This Orthodontist?

So my daughter has completed her “phase one” of orthodontic work to fix an overbite. During that course of treatment, starting around the age of 10, she had 6 teeth pulled. The first two by a dentist and the other 4 by a oral surgeon with laughing gas. After the first teeth pulling my daughter was beyond traumatized so that is why we spent the extra dough to have an oral surgeon do the next recommended teeth to extraction. Now 2 years later, we are in the limbo phase before the 2nd phase where the orthodontist wants to put braces on...

Seeking a Good Infertility Specialist in the McKinney/Allen/Frisco/Plano Area

Anyone know of a good reputable infertility specialist in the North Dallas/McKinney/Allen/Frisco/Plano area???? I have been going to one in Dallas, but the office seems very disorganized and don't seem to really care about their patients. So I'd like to switch and since I live in McKinney, I'm hoping for someone a little closer to home. Please let me know too if there is someone you would NOT recommend so I know to steer clear from that office. Thanks.

General Practioner Vs. Pediatrician

Currently, I have my daughter going to a General practioner. I have no real complaints with her medical care as she is healthy. However, I wonder if there are any benefits of going to a pediatrician that I am missing by taking her to a GP. She was breastfed for the first year of her life, she's a pretty healthy eater but she is not on any vitamins. Should she be?

Anyone Know a Good Breast Specialist or General Surgeon?

Hello Ladies, I am writing today on behalf of my friend. She found a lump right above her right breast and went to see a general surgeon about it after being referred there by her general pracitioner. The surgeon said he would do a needle biopsy and then decided he would be "conservative," and knock her out and remove the lump altogether. He doesn't know much about the physical attributes of this lump because it is buried so deep that he hasn't been able to see it with an ultrasound. He hasn't ordered a CAT scan. She feels uneasy...
