I was going to post about my doc visit, but I have to say it wasn't the nice experience that I was expecting. Being pregnant should be a joy. Going into an appt for your ultrasound should be great ya know.
I was so excited about going in. We waited 40 mins and finally I couldn't hold my tinkle any longer. Coming out of the restroom, the U tech lady told me that per her calculations I wasn't 18 weeks yet and she didn't want to do the ultrasound. Now what? I told them that we had no prob with the ultrasound with my son at 16 weeks found out what he was. Ya know.
They are the ones who sceduled me for the appt! Duh! The last few visits haven't been nice at all. The doctor, whom shall be nameless, is majorly arrogant. Who needs the added stress. Everyone has a bad day, but I've had enough of the junk they've been trying to feed me.
The last visit I waited for over an hour half before the doc decided to show up at the office. Popped into my room for oh maybe two mins and didn't even do the registering of the heartbeat right. The machine never registered the number b/c he didn't put it on the baby! He rambled off oh it's about 150. When uh last time the baby heartbeat was 167. Come on people. He had me so flustered and aggravated that I didn't even get the chance to question him and ughhh he was out of the room in no time. I was supposed to sign some paper saying I refused the blood work scan. Never happened. I ended up signing it when I came in for this last visit. B/c the U tech lady was so mad that I asked them to do the ultrasound, it was real crappy. She said we couldn't see the heart chamber...uh that's a lie. I've been preg 5 times now, and I've had many ultrasounds. I saw the heart chamber on this ultrasound and I've seen it in previous U-sounds.
She knew we wanted to get the sex of the baby. This baby lays with her back to my stomach. But there are ways to get the baby to roll over. She did push once to do that and it started rolling over but b/c she didn't continue to do so, we only got a partial view of the baby sex. Then when she moved the belly thing it was gone and she printed that pic! Now how aggravating is that!? Not to mention They refused to schedule my next u-visit b/c they wanted to talk to the doc first. It's likely I will be 8 months pregnant before I would find out the sex.
It looks to be a girl. Yes if it truly is, I'm to be super excited and preparing to buy all PINK!
I was so aggravated as was my hubby, and mother-in-law, that I got home and contacted my insurance comp. I got a complete list of new OB docs. I talked to an office that ended up being not far from my house. They were very nice and understanding when I explained the situation.
Not to mention I now have a doc visit the 8th of this month. Then within two weeks after, will have my next Ultrasound. This is a woman doc, whom I will feel much more comfortable with. I will still be delivering at St. E south.
I'm holding off on buying anything PINK until after that visit. But it's killing me to do so! lol
Other news...since NY trip didn't happen, I'm happy to report the Hubby and I will be going to Key West FL. Blue water, white sand, 70 degree weather (even in dec), hotel room, fresh seafood....oh man!
It's going to be like a honeymoon, since we didn't have one when we got married. Got a really good deal on the trip. It will be Dec 9-14th I think it is.
Well I'm off to bed. Should already be in bed considering church tom morning. But I took advantage of the extra hour we get by turning our clocks back.
Oh and I've gained 4 pounds so far. My belly has rounded out very nicely. They baby is moving and last night head butted my cervix twice. Guess logan sitting on my lap wasn't giving her much room. lol Had to shift him around. Logan used to headbutt me in the cervix all the time. In the ultrasound once I had with him the lady doing the Usound thought it was funny. I didn't b/c it hurts! lol
Ok...night
