Off to the doctor...

So, It's a little silly that I post on this blog considering I only have two readers..... But, when there's noone to talk to, and I'm a talker, I guess you've gotta do something!

I went to the doctor today for a 34 week check up (almost 35 weeks pregnant). I was supposed to see an MD, because of the whole c-section thing. However, I got there about 15 mins. early, which is a miracle, and the lady said I didn't have an appointment, quite rudely. Then she stated that the doctor wasn't even in on Thursday's, but she could schedule me for tomorrow. A little flustered and upset because I just threw away my appointment card, that said 4/30/09 at 8:50 am, I told her I wouldn't come back tomorrow. So, she checked to see if my midwife would see me. All along I had a screaming little 19 month old, because she's sick. When she returned she told me that I was supposed to call to set up an appointment, that I had never set one. Now, I may be a little absent minded, but I don't think I make up appointments that suit me in my head! So, I chose the other side and went along, because of course all humans don't like to admit fault, so I figured she could sit on her pedestal. Of course, all along I was wishing I hadn't thrown away that card just yesterday. My midwife felt bad and understood the situation, but I was still upset, as you can tell. Then of course I had Emma screaming until her face turned blue when they had to check the heart rate and measurements because she hates for anybody to touch me. It was adventurous to say the least.

On a brighter note, Emma dropped her book at the doctors and a lady picked it up for her and Emma quickly signed "thank you" to the lady. I'm so proud of her, I showed her this on Saturday when we were crossing the parking lot, how quick she is to pick up on things! It's pretty amazing. Also, baby looks perfect and my measurements are finally catching up, I was a little worried.

So, on to the next appointment on 5/15/09, I'll be keeping that appoinment card! It's supposed to be a 36 week appoinment, but I'll just be 3 days shy of 37 weeks, which is frustrating considering the c-section is right around the corner. Bummer! Well, off to the internet realm! I vented, it's just not as good as actually talking to someone :(
