My concern is the stress. Stress for a pregnant provider is SO important to avoid.
If this family is at all causing stress to the provider, she shouldn't be guilted into prolonging a termination.
Everyone of us has our own comfort levels and I've come to recognize and understand that by the time a provider comes to this forum to post/vent/ask for advice....the situation is usually much more stressful than the poster lets on and sometimes the posters are simply looking for a "push" in the direction they are already heading.
OP does NOT owe this family ANY type of courtesy or special consideration. She owes them the same notice period they would owe her if the situation was reversed.
The care environment outside her program (whether other care situations are available or not) is really not her concern.
Her concern should be focused on her pregnancy and a healthy baby. Eliminating ANY stress is a necessary evil in some situations.
