I haven't slept very well the last few days, in fact last night I slept less than four hours. Was awake at 3 am and finally got up at 5 to do things around the house. I think I was anxious about getting the blood drawn. I'm not any easy stick, so to speak. The nurse was good though. She got me on the first try, which is not usually the case.
The thing that has me even more anxious is that if I am this worried about the blood being drawn... what am I going to do when I am waiting for the results?!?! This could be a LONG month!
Is it weird that I really feel like something is going to come back abnormal? Maybe we all do because why else would you get this testing done and have them draw 9 vials of blood!!
Ugh! More waiting and more worries and more sleepless nights in my future I believe...

I always dread getting bloodwork done too. I hope you'll sleep better tonight now that it's over with. I agree with Mrs.EmmaLouise-find something fun to do to take up time! I hope you get good results back!
Wow, you got off with only 9 vials? They did 13 for me and then made me come back the next day for 3 more...
I think everybody reacts differently. I really wanted something to come back abnormal, but since nothing goes the way I want it to in this process, I expected everything would be normal. And it did turn out to be normal.
Try to focus on the relief that it's all out of your hands at this point. I hope everything turns out as you want it!
Well, I did get a full night of sleep last night. I don't think I even woke up once or moved once! I was exhausted. (It probably doesn't help that I am working on getting our house ready to sell. I've got a lot left to do!) It is hard because so much is wrapped up in this. I spent many hours on the phone with insurance for this and even wonder how much the bill will be later. It's not that I won't do anything to make this work, it is just so stressful.
I wish I could relax. It's easier said then done. In fact, my mom likes to tell me that is the reason why this stuff keeps happening. But as I said earlier, I did sleep like a rock last night and I am feeling more calm today. The unknown is always a little scary. I will just have to wait and see how it turns out. There is nothing I can do. If there was, I'm sure we would all be pregnant right now.
