Update On My First Doc App Today

[MadisonsMommy]

So I went to a new doctor today... And I absolutely LOVED her! She was GREAT! She was very gentle and did not rush through the appointment at all. I was able to ask all my questions and she explained all my questions very well and did not rush anything.
I had to get blood drawn and apparently I did not eat and drink enough this morning and I almost completely passed out. She drew blood from both arms because I almost passed out with the first and we had to take a break then she did the second. My vision was gone and I could not see anything and I was freaking out. I thought I was going to vomit all over the place and my body started sweating horribly! It was really scary. All in all it took 45 min to take blood till I could stand up. Thank goodness this was at the end of the appointment.
ANYWAY :)
Found out that the baby looks great! We saw the tiny little heart flickering on the u/s. Baby is 6 weeks and 2 days and I am due on July 27, 2009. Which just happens to be Maddie's 2nd birthday! Lol... But if it goes like last time that means we will have Baby #2 in early July.
I still feel tired and pretty crappy but some rest and fluid should help! We are super excited all in all! And most of the appointment went great!

That's terrific!

My due date is within a couple weeks of my son's birthday, too -- I just keep hoping I won't go into labor ON his birthday. I would really hate having a sibling with the same birthday as me!! Her due date is about a week later than my son's was, though, so I doubt it'll happen.

I'm glad things went well.

On a side note there is a family here in my state that all 4 of their DC have the same birthdate. Not planned and not multiples either. All different ages.

YAY!! I am glad all went well for you! (minus the scary blood draw)
How neat that your due date is on your DD's b-day!

[MadisonsMommy]

Thanks! How was your doc app KatieLou?

[KatieLou]

Thanks for asking!

It went great. All looks well so far. We saw the little yolk sac on the US. I am 5.5wks with a July 31st due date.

July is our busy month! Our ann on the 5th, DD's b-day on the 8th, mine on the 16th, and now the baby EDD.

My doc assured me that HE would get to deliver my baby this time, last time the hospital staff did not tell him i was there and then tried to say I did not tell them. He was so ticked!! I am still a little sad about it myself.

I go back in 2wks to get a look at the baby!

I'm sorry you vagaled! That's scary - it always happens to me when something is done to my cervix.

[MadisonsMommy]

Thats great KatieLou! Very excited for you! Looks like we will both have a newborn at the same time! Congrats!

All I has done was the ultra sound and it was transvaginal... They did not do a pap smear or anything else...
