Pregnant after 35

Vent: changing doctors....

Just needing to vent. Always feels better to get it out with others who are not family.
Yesterday was horrible. The night before I noticed something when wiping and called the hotline the next day to see about getting a urine sample done to check for a uti. And hopefully rule out a mc. All along I figured it to be a uti. But if you've ever experienced a mc it sits at the back of your mind. Finally after 3 hrs of waiting for the Nurse Practitioner to call me back...I got a nurse calling to tell me to go on down to the clinic bc a order was called in for a culture. Great. Only not so great. I get there and they tell me it is for tomorrow. What? And that I wouldn't get the results back for another day. More waiting and worrying. So I walked out. In tears. My mom called and said the hotline called her and was trying to get ahold of me. Said my cell was disconnected. (They dailed the wrong #). So now I am actually talking to the NP and she has the nerve to yell at me. Telling me I have no idea what I am talking about when I told her a nurse told me to come on down. I proceeded to tell her she has obviously never been through a mc before or she would be treating me with more sensitivity and not yelling at me while I am bawling.
So that is why I am moving on. I won't associate with that hospital if that is the type of ppl they leave in charge of a Pregnancy hotline. A hotline most women call when they are upset and worried.

Try not to stress like PP said easier said than done.

Ended up going to my family dr an hr later and he said that it looked like the start of a uti and is treating it as one. So far today nothing when I wipe. So I am feeling better mentally and physically.
Thanks everybody. A good vent is sometimes needed every now and then.
