Becoming frustrated...

I TOTALLY understand that they are just trying to do their job and prepare DH for any possible issues, but I am now starting to feel like they are looking for more issues.  I didn't post about this earlier (appt was almost 2 weeks ago) I was still letting it sink in...

They keep saying stuff like, "oh, we'll know more when the baby's here" and "it doesn't look like anything is life threatening" WHAT? When you make me have an emergency amnio and we're clear of the trisomy's and you CONGRATULATE me, why is it that a month or 2 later you say it doesn't look like it's life threatening?!? I thought we were clear of that issue???? I'm not ignorant and know that of course complications could arise, but when discussing the birth defects my son already has... 

I'm just feeling like I'm getting mixed signals... Jo, maybe you can help me out here??

    I'm so sorry Jen, I can see why you would feel like you are getting mixed signals. As you know I don't know much about this, but am here for you.

    I'm sorry they are making you feel this way, Jen. It's odd that they aren't trying to keep you as calm as possible.

    I kind of get the same thing now that we have been cleared for infections and I am not a carrier for CF. They told me the only other thing they could do before birth was an amnio (no thanks). If it is anything other than what I've been tested for then, we won't be able to do anything about it until after birth.

    What else are they looking for now? I mean, they know about his intestines and I thought it was just a surgery after birth?

    Oh, Jen. Is there something else that they think is going on? I thought that they seemed pretty certain that they had all the answers.

    It is so unfair. The worry and the stress. There needs to be a better way than this way. There is something cruel about the lack on information that doctors give.

    Hang in there! Think of all the things that thought were wrong. They were wrong. You are going to have a healthy, beautiful baby.

    ((((HUGE HUGS)))))
