Dads coming along for the prenatal visits I don't mind at all, and most of them voluntarily step out when we get to the pelvic exam, but when she's just there for her annual exam for OCP's it just creeps me out to have partner insisting on staying in. Lately it seems like it's always the boyfriend too. I haven't had too many husbands want to stick around.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
