2nd Doctors Visit

So as the title says I had my second doctors visit on Monday. It was not what I expected of it. I was happy to be able to hear the baby's heart beat, but I did wish Allen could have been there with me to share in the moment. That was about the only good thing about the appointment though. When the nurse practitioner came into the room she seemed to have a chip on her shoulder from the beginning. She was nothing but rude the whole time and pretty much insulted me every chance she got. The one comment that through me over the edge with her was I had asked her how my results came out from the sonogram on my kidneys (since the doctor seemed so worried about) and she turned to me and said, "Well if you were so worried about it then why did you get pregnant?" I wanted to turn to her and say, "I'm sorry but that is none of your business nor your place to say that to me." Of course though I just kept my mouth shut and continued on with the long miserable appointment. When I left I called my mom and Allen and both were very upset with what they heard so Tuesday I called to try and switch doctors. The process was going to be a bit of trouble so I called my doctors office back and told them what happened. They apologized profusely and said if I wanted I could stay with them but I would ONLY see the doctor anytime I came in. Since we had such a great experience at our first appointment and really liked the doctor I decided to go ahead and stay as long as they would guarantee me that I would never have to see her again. So it seems for now things will be ok. They did change my due date to August 16th now, so now I'm only 11 weeks 3 days today, instead of the 12 weeks we had originally figured out. Feeling pretty good and starting to get a little energy back. I don't seem to be sleeping quite as much but I think that is just because I force myself to stay up so I can spend time with my sister, Adrianna and Allen when he gets home from work @ 11. I do with I could hear the baby's heartbeat again. It was so heartwarming just know hear something that confirmed she is in there!! Like until then it didn't really seem real and I wasn't really that happy about this whole process yet!! I will find out around the end of March beginning of April what the sex of the baby is and I'm SOOO excited about that!! Of course it seems as if that is forever away, but at least I don't have to wait another 3 months!! 7-1/2 more weeks!!! I'm so excited to be able to start shopping for things for the baby and hopefully by then we will somewhat know what is going on with Allen's job so we know if we will have to move or not!!

Other than that things are going good. I made the Dean's list for the Fall 2008 semester with my school!! I was pretty proud of it, but I won't be staying on there for long since this statistics class is killing me!! We have the Dane Cook concert this Saturday and I'm SOOO excited to go see him. I've wanted to go for a very long time now!! Oh and I just bought our tickets to go home in March!! I'm just hoping that my Grandparents don't end up coming down here that same week now!! We will see but hopefully everything works out!

  1. Em,

    I am so sorry to hear about your nurse! I cant believe someone would say that! It will all get better and hopefully someone will let her know that her attitude is extremely inappropriate. Yay!I cant believe you only have 7 more weeks until you find out what you are having, how exciting! By your blog I am assuming you want a girl, LOL! So glad that you guys are going to get to go home in March, I hope you guys enjoy your much needed vacation! Thanks for updating your blog for me, You ROCK! Hope you have a good week!
    Love,
    Amber
