Doc Appointment 5-2-08
Not too much to report (which is great!) I haven't had any of my bad original symptom in about 1 1/2 months so that is great news. I received my 2nd shot of Rhogam during this appointment. (Since my bloodtype is AB- I need to get this shot a few times b/c if I didn't my body could reject a second baby.) I also drank the lovely orange drink so they could draw blood after 1 hour to check for signs of gestational diabetes. All of these tests came out fine which is good news too!
The worst part was talking to my doctor about her vacation. She is scheduled to be on vacation the week that I am due! (Doctor's go on vacation???) I requested a female physician (I have never felt comfortable with a male doctor and I don't think the time to start is now!) She is going to hook me up with another close female doctor so that I can meet her before my due date and review my birthing plan with her as well. It's getting a little confusing though with all of the doctor appointments to meet with her and my original doc!
I have a few to do's on my list. 1. I have to look into my insurance plan and see how many miles away from my location they cover me if I travel about a month before my due date. I need to check this to see if I can attend my brother-in-law's wedding in Bloomington on June 28th. 2. I need to create my birthplan which I will be bringing to my next month's appointment. I definitely have a few decisions to make! :) |
