About me
I am a scientist working in a medical research institute in the DC area. After my daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 5 years ago I shifted my area of research to diabetes. I am married to the most supportive and loving man that comes from the hotel management industry and am a mom to three wonderful kids; 10 year old girl, 8 year old and 2 year old boys and a dog, a real energy booster... I am also a children's author and have one book published in Hebrew titled Tal and the Secret Treasure.

OBGYNs 2
So eventually I found my match. An OBGYN who doesn't add his share to my already preexisting amount of stress, who can live in peace with me not wanting any kind of medications if there isn't a medical justification to taking them, who can appreciate the fact that i had delivered two babies without epidural and that I am planning to do the same thing this time again, without trying to talk me out of it. He even added few words of encouragement! So, now I could finally start to enjoy being pregnant and trust my instincts , instead of feeling like I am being managed by a battery of physicians and nurses. Well, these people will still be part of my follow up appointments but they will be on my side and I get to play the lead.
