There are advantages and disadvantages for both, so it's a matter of which you think you'd rather work with: women or kids.

The choice between being an OB/GYN or a pediatrician depends on your personal interests and career goals. If you enjoy working with women's health and reproductive care, and are interested in experiencing the miracle of childbirth, becoming an OB/GYN might be a good fit. On the other hand, if you have a passion for working with children and are interested in their development and well-being, pursuing a career as a pediatrician could be more fulfilling. Ultimately, it would be best to consider your own preferences and aspirations to make the right decision.
