Dr. appointment #1

So I went to the doctors today. Woke up this morning at 8:15 seeing I still had to run to the college and hand in my final papers for Career Exploration. I got to the school at 9 and I had 20 minutes to spare before the deadline so I’m in the clear and my papers will be graded. After doing that I spotted off and had a McDonalds breakfast. Made it to the doctors at 9:30 and my appointment wasn’t until 9:45.

I got called in and me and the nurse talked about my medical history. We did my weight and we won’t go there. We also got talking about the twins. According to the ultrasound I have fraternal twins. [Those are the ones where 2 eggs were fertilized by seperate sperm. So I have a better chance of having a set of boy/girl.] Then the doctor came in. We sat and chitter chattered about what would happen when I seen Dr. Page. She also told me that I have a better chance of delivering at Strong Hospital [that’s up in Rochester about 45 minutes away from my house] instead of delivering at F.F. Thompson in Canandaigua which is just a hop, skip, and a jump from my house.

Then I made the appointment to go up to Strong Hospital and have my 1st Trimester screening done. I go up there on the 15th of January where they are going to do another ultrasound and more blood work to check for Downs Syndrome. Then I made my 4 week appointment which is on the 19th of January and that’s when we are going to try and hear the heart beats. The doctor also told me when I see Dr. Page that he might want to bump up my appointments seeing that I am carrying 2.

I didn’t have to do the Pap test seeing that I had already done it, and I did the cultures so all I did was get talked to and blood work. I went and did the blood work and normally I can watch it. I had 7 vials to fill, ok no problem. It got to vial number 5 and I seen the blood moving in the vial and I turned flush, I got extremely hot, and extremely sick to my stomach. It got done and the nurse took the needle out and my arm starting in the crease where your elbow is all the way down to my middle finger of my right hand had this annoying dull pain feel. I had to do a urine screen as well. They were checking for HIV, lead, my blood type, and some other stuff I can’t remember.

I got home and went back to sleep. I ignored the annoying pain in my arm and slept until 3. Got up, took Pat and his mother to work and checked in with Momma Flossie.

Her and baby Emilie are sick. She has a bad cold, and I Em has been sick all weeked with a fever and a cough and a double ear infection. Poor baby.

Anyways, that’s what happened at the doctors today. Nothing major, just my blood work that got to me. So I think with that said, I’m going to go and eat something and just chill out. Until next time…toodles!!
