Not to be sarcastic but why are you asking us to help you decide whether to drive to the doctor from work or from home when you only need to go into the office 2 days a week. The decision seems pretty obvious to me given the frequency and inflexibility of ob/gyn appts during pregnancy. The logical strategy to me is to consider the providers/hospitals closest to home and increase your radius as needed until you find one that meets your needs. Unless you’re high risk, then it’s a different conversation.

I hesitate to say high risk as I don't yet have any medical assessment but my age and a few pre-existing conditions may pose issues in this pregnancy. I might value better care over convenience but am trying to gauge the level of inconvenience I suppose

For me, the very strong desire to avoid being stuck in traffic on 93 while in labor would trump most other factors but I think it’s as an assessment every makes independently.
