Hey girls...I have a lot to catch up on, so here it goes haha: So we had our appt and I had mixed feelings about it. The baby is great and heart rate has been steady in the 140's. I explained to the doctor abt how I have not received my medication in almost 2wks. I advised him of his incompetent assistant and how she just lies. He immediately apologizes and explains that the nurse who usually handles the refills is out on maternity leave and his assistant is new to the process. Once he explained, it made so much sense and we felt a lot better. BUT what didn't sit right with me, still, is the fact that she would lie to my face and never return phone calls. UGH. My doctor explained that she has only been a medical assistant for almost a year and for the future we should deal with the more experienced MA. So all in all, I feel like something was resolved!
Now, the part of the visit that didn't sit right with me was the fact that I explained that we were going out of the state this weekend. Since I haven't received my injection in almost 2wks, shouldn't I get an examination to check and make sure my cervix and everything looks fine? He says no "You have a cerclage so your baby won't just fall out. You will know if you're going in labor." So now I will be out of state and praying that I don't go in labor, GREAT!!!!
Eyemom- you were exactly right, I was able to arrange with the pharmacy directly to call in my own refills. After this experience, I think this is for the best....That is crazy that poor lady drive almost 2hrs round trip to the pharmacy and still not get her medicine. I know we are all human and we make mistakes but GEEZZZ I would be livid!!!...OMG you're 22wks *Yay* you're so close to Vday!
Mama- I'm soooooooo sorry that you are going through this. Being in limbo is the worst feeling ever. I know exactly how u feel. With my first pregnancy, I went to my appt and should've been 6wks along but there was nothing on the ultrasound. My doctor scheduled me to come back in a few weeks, then there was my baby. My doctor said it happens, sometimes we ovulate later than we suspect....So even though things seem like it's over, I hope that it's not an etopic pregnancy and you've just ovulated later...I'm sure your parents would understand the discretion.
BB- WTH!! I know your doctor just wanted to prepare you but OMG that would crush my hopes, as well. The good thing is your pregnancy is coming along so beautifully and this is your rainbow baby! I was giving the same diagnosis with my short cervix (most losses occur in the second trim) and here I am at 31wks. No doctor can predict which babies are viable, so let's only entertain happy thoughts
Starry- Wow. I just want to hug you *HUGS* I can 100% empathize with how you are feeling because DH deals with depression as well (stemed from his childhood). I glad that you are starting to feel better and you've developed a system to deal with those feelings. Hopefully the inlaws won't be too bad. Less stress is the best stress haha...I hope Hannah's cold disappears soon. Poor baby
Left- How is Sean? How is DH doing?
(gonna go post on fb in a min)
How upsetting that your Dr said that to you. Does he just not want a girl to relax and enjoy her pregnancy? I guess it's the kind of thing you'd want to know though as crappy as it is. It's still a great milestone to be in 2nd tri. Having smaller milestones to celebrate helps pass the time. I'm feeling so positive for you this time, hang in there. 
" but the rest of me thought it seemed like a good idea. I blame it being 6am as well as the PND. Obviously, it seems crazy to me now and I told DH all about it. Saying these things out loud really zap the crazy thoughts of all their power.
I have a follow up appt this week and I'm just hoping I can hold her in at least until after my baby shower lol
Will all be worth it though!
