Tips to survive OB waiting room tomorrow?

A book?
iPod? (I probably wouldn't be able to hear my name called)

Phone?

I can't handle all of the "Fit Pregnancy" magazines. *sigh*

Or would you do something nice for yourself afterwards?


Hoping that my beta is down and I won't have to go back.

    I try to put on my blinders - too many pregnant women - and either read a book or bury myself in my phone. Good luck!

    for me its all about the mental preparation. seriously, you have to just stay focused and get in the zone. I dont let my mind wander AT ALL. if I do, its really hard to keep my composure. then when you get in the car all bets are off.

    My tip for you is to NOT bring someone like your mother, or a person that would be very emotional. 
    DO however bring a girlfriend or someone who is bubbly and fun who will not feel so sad for you. 

    I brought my mom with me (boyfriend was out of town) and it was such a mistake. In the moments where I was feeling fine and not crashing emotionally she just kept crying. It was embarrassing and also made me feel guilty that I was not crying (though of course, I was sad!).
