  • @chunkymonkeylvr only part one! I have to go to hulu for the rest. Directv on demand only had the first part!! Now I may definitely skip this morning just to finish it ;)
  • I am waiting for my round 2 anatomy scan. I was late because I am so tired. My H couldn't come with me - I'm happy that he is working (we went through several years of him finding himself in his late 30s/40s!), but I still wish he was here.

    Why am I always so scared every time I go to the dr?

    @healthyfor2 Is this whole practice that way or just the midwife?  That wouldn't sit well with me either.  I'm not sure how big the practice is, but I go to a larger OBGYN practice that has multiple locations.  I always see my doctor and she never rushes.  She starts taking belly measurements around 13 weeks, listens with the doppler at every appointment, and takes time to ask if I have any questions.  My doctor also made sure to introduce herself when DH was with me at one of the appointments when I was pregnant with DS.

    Well I think it's just that midwife. I saw a male midwife way back in February when I was establishing care before pregnancy and he was so awesome. Very personable and gave me plenty of opportunity for questions, etc. I saw him for my 8 week appointment and he was again extremely awesome. My next 2 appts were with this lady and I can schedule with whoever I want so I won't be scheduling with her again. I didn't like her after the first appt but I had no choice the second time because I needed to get my scan and appt in one day back to back to get it done the same day. I asked for a different provider and they said I would have had to come back the same day hours later or come back another day. Ain't nobody got time for that! Moving forward I will try my best to stay away from her. What I don't like is that I don't really have a doctor or midwife that I'm "under" if that makes sense. And I guess she didn't Dopple since I just had the scan so I understand that. I just thought she would feel the belly to see where it was at least. As catty as it may be, the introducing thing really bothers me!! Thanks for the response :)

  • @EmpireRecords24 - I have two brothers.  I'm not *super* tight with them but I make time to see them when I visit their cities (i.e. Chicago and Richmond).  Growing up with them was hell, though!  I was the youngest and they tormented me endlessly.  But everyone grows up and we hang out now.

    Keep in mind, too, that just because you have kids of the same sex doesn't mean they're going to be besties.  My mom and aunt thought my cousin and I would be super tight because we're the only two girl cousins out of 15 boys.  We're night and day.  My cousin - love her as I do - is a frilly little sorority party girl who's in power-career mode traveling the world and drinking expensive champagne.  I'm the fat nature-loving lesbian living in a small town getting ready to pop out a kid.  We chat at family events but we don't seek each other's company out the way I'm sure my mom and aunt wish we would.

  • Oh yeah totes forgot to put 19 wks 2da!!!!!!! Thanks @nannabee21‌ for reminding me :)

    This also reminds me-the practice I go to barely tells me anything I feel like. Had my scan on Monday followed by my appt. I feel like u/s tech told me more than the midwife did. Tech told me baby was about a week ahead. The midwife (who I saw at last visit and really don't like but had no choice this time) barely told me anything. Didn't tell me baby was a week ahead, and she had the report in front of her and was reading thru it but just said "all is well." I had to ask her for specifics. And yes I get that "all is well" means everything is fine but I guess I would like to hear more specifics. She didn't even lay hands on me at all and just left the room. On her way out I asked her when they start measuring the belly and she said "oh like 20 weeks." Pretty sure when I did clinicals in women's health we started at least trying to feel pretty well at the beginning. I left after visits with her both times feeling dumbfounded that she came in and out so fast that I had zero time to think about anything and always have questions after the fact. Needless to say I won't be seeing her again and I hope she isn't on call when this baby comes!! I'm feeling overwhelmed in this huge practice. None of it is personal at all. Not like I need glitter up my ass and my hand held but normal human interaction would be nice. She never even introduced herself to me. This time my husband was with me and she didn't introduce herself to him either. Of course he thought everything was fine. I wonder if it's just rubbing me this way because she is so different than how I interact with patients. Sorry for the rant!!! I miss my cute little private practice OB that I went to in my home town for 10 years for my GYN care. 2 docs in the practice and they were brothers. They were so awesome.

    I feel this way too! I feel like as the professional, you should come in and OFFER information. I don't always think of my questions on the spot either and am left dumbfounded when she says all is well, do I have questions? I'm like yea, explain all is good...and she still doesn't give me enough detail or info. It shouldn't be my job to hunt down the facts through a game of questions and answers when she has everything in front of her face. I like to feel like my practice CARES to tell me about my pregnancy and baby. I can't wait to fucking switch.

    @skrittens good luck on you a/s, here's to everything being just fine! Also the same to everyone else with a/s today, may your LOs cooperate!

    @drudolph11‌ congrats on the new place!

    AFM- I'm a little sad because i just gave DD the last of my frozen breast milk. I know it probably seems silly but I'm just like that's it, it's all gone and she'll never have any more :(

    I am looking forward to a weekend doing NOTHING. It's just been too hectic lately. And also catching up on the board.

    It was a very emotional time for me when E had the last bottle of my milk. Hugs, lady.
  • I'm going to the birth without fear conference in Austin this weekend. It should be fun, plus I get an ergo baby carrier with admission! :P Also I'm half baked today!!! Whoop!
    My doctor is doing the Q & A session on Saturday! His name is Frank Hinds and he is amazing!!! Enjoy your time. That sounds like an awesome conference. I am on baby duty this weekend so I can't go :(

  • So, I had such terrible joint pain while trying to fall asleep last night, I tossed and turned for hours. Literally hours. It is the worst sleep I've had this pregnancy and I'm sad because it didn't get rough like this until late third tri last time. This pregnancy is so much harder on my body.

    And, K took E out so I could sleep in and the neighbor across the street is having a tree chopped down...so much for sleeping in.

    @JM0848‌ I tried pm'ing you, but there was no attach picture option so I'll just leave this here. I remember your post about space saving and immediately thought of you when someone shared this on Facebook. It may be a good solution! :)
    Great idea! I may have to use this myself as we have very limited closet space.

    We have a place here (in TX) called Texas Land & Cattle that is supposed to be really good. Mmmm steak..
