Big Relief!

Now that's more like it. I had my appointment today with the new doctor, and it was wonderful! She was so professional and kind and thorough and genuine. I felt completely comfortable with everyone there and was just so thankful that God gave me some extra grace and it was not only just "fine" it was actually a great experience. Funny story: When I went to get blood drawn, I turned to my side and saw a bulletin board of pictures... one of which was of my cousin, Shaun - random! So of course I asked whose pictures these were, and as it turns out, the lady sticking a needle in my arm is his girlfriend's mom. So she gave me updates on my own family (haha) and we talked about Aunt Bea & Nana going to the Homerun Derby and loving baseball. Anyway, what a small world.

Mike went with me today and we both were astonished at what a night & day difference it was from the other practice. Baby W. seems to be doing great. We heard his heart beating strong and she gave us more details from my ultrasound that the other doctor didn't take the time to do. She even said at my next appointment, she'll do another ultrasound just for peace of mind and so they'll have it on record - it's always fun to get a peek at him. So I go again in 3 weeks and then I start going every 2 weeks. Wow...that makes me feel really far along! Anyway, it was a good day.

I even got to work from home the rest of the day and all day tomorrow since there are painters doing work on my hallway at work and I'm not supposed to be around those fumes. Fine by me!

  2. I'm so glad you had the extra reassurance of meeting someone who knew your cousin. How great that it was a good experience! I'm so so glad you switched and you can be comfortable with the doctors who will bring your little boy into the world! I get to drink my fun sugar drink on Tuesday and get blood drawn...we're getting closer! Glad you get more pics of your little man!
