Dr Appointment Updates

Well, had my Dr. Appointment today. And I just have one question....why is it that during the day I pee a zillion times, pretty much every 2 hours, but when I have to give a 'sample' I dry up completely. SHEESH! Anyway, got into the room, and the Dr. came in. He looked at my chart and said that I had passed the 3 hr glucose test. YEA!! No meds or anything crazy like that needed.

He said he was very glad about my weight. With as much as I gained with PCOS, he is only estimating 10-15 lb gain. He said it may even be the end of my 2nd trimester before I start moving up the scale. He doesn't want me to gain a lot, but the baby will help my body determine how much I should gain. It was quite funny when I had asked him about not gaining anything, but 'parts' of me are getting smaller. He said that babies are the worlds best parasites - cause they feed on the stored fats in your body. Since I have the extra fat stored from PCOS, I got plenty for the baby to feed on - EAT UP!! After the question and answer, he had me lay back and he was poking my belly a bit, then said that my uterus size is right on track,

After the poking, I thought he was done. But then he must have heard my silent prayer - cause out came the doppler. ::Sigh:: He got the heart beat really quick. Beating strong- my little washing machine- and he said the beats were strong and even. Very pleased with everything.

So, I cleaned up, and we set the date for the Growth and Anatomy scan (boy?/girl?) and my next Dr. Appointment for the same date - August 27th. 4 more weeks, and I will {{Hopefully}} find out what we are having - as long as the baby works with us. I will be getting the Scan on DVD, so I will be able to post the video once we get home. VERY EXCITING!!! We can't wait. Tim is taking the day off and going to go with me. The appointment is early morning, so we are going to go to the 2 appointments, and then we both have chiropractor appointments that afternoon. Busy Day!

Anyway, thank you to everyone for their prayers regarding the Glucose Test. I was very nervous about it, but turns out everything is fine. Just hope that the same will be said when I take the tests over again in 8-10 weeks (like a normal person).

Dr. Appt Update

Ok, so I had my Dr. appt today. This was only day 11, so it wasn't enough days to really count for anything. They basically wanted to check and make sure the extra 2 days of clomid didn't do anything crazy. So, everything looks good so far, but I have to go back on Saturday morning at 9:15am to be probed again. So far so good.




Also...VERY GOOD NEWS!! I finally got to talk to the billing lady from the office about insurance. She decided to start sending in all the ultrasounds to insurance, and is working to get me my $402 back!!!! WHOO-HOOOO!! That means no more $134 visits!! This takes a big weight off our shoulders now. It is expensive enough to buy the meds, shots, and tests - but to take the visits off is great.



So, anyway, that is it on the BabyFront. Today was my last day at my nice quiet cube on the first floor. It was full of visits from nearly everyone I come in contact with on that floor, and even people that I haven't spoken with in a while. They were all wishing me luck, and were saying that they were sad to see me go. I took comfort in that, at least people are not glad to see me go. I start tomorrow morning in the Call Center at my not-so quiet partial desk/cube thing. Tomorrow I am going to go in early to unpack. Only had enough time to pack up today and move the stuff down. I still have to move my chair. They were moving my computer tonight. I will try to snap a pic so everyone can see what I mean.



Please keep Tim and I in your prayers for this cycle, and send some extra prayers my way while I deal with the transition at work.


Thanks!


p.s. ok, ok, ok, enough with the text messages, Myspace/Facebook comments - I will try to sit down and do a video blog this weekend, get it edited, and posted. Sheesh!! pushy much ♥ J
