I've just found out im pregnant (yay!). My job is about 1hr away and I work 4 days a week from 9-5. Im wondering if I should get a gp close to my home or one that is closer to my work since I intend on working until I physically cant. what would you do?
The day I dont work I have my 4 yr old with me so Id have to take her to my appts.

Just do what's easiest for you.
Just be aware that some doctors/hospitals etc don't allow children in to consultation/procedure rooms, I found that out the hard way!
I'd pick one somewhere in the middle. It can be hard to get Appointments sometimes so it needs to be relatively convenient to both places
I'd go closer to home, presuming you are choosing a hospital close to home, therefore doctor will be in that vicinity.
Check if kids allowed at doc. No reason they shouldn't be, or if your daughter is rowdy and gets bored easily, ask a friend or family member to either come along, or leave her with them
Why do you need a doctor? All appointments are with midwives?
