8w... again
So I am 8 weeks today, not yesterday. My brain has reached the point of not working.
Had my appointment with the nurse from my OB office. Long story short, they pretty much seem to be able to do everything that the high risk dr was saying he was going to do. Their office is 10 minutes away. High risk dr is 45 minutes away (minus traffic and weather). Just didn't get any sort of warm and fuzzy feeling from the high risk office either. I decided to ditch the high risk dr. I figure if something goes wrong, I can always switch back.
Only concern is that in the short meeting I had with the nurse (who asked one of the doctors at the practice who is not my dr for some further insight on what the office could handle) I didn't feel that they are going to be as concerned with regular checks of my cervical length as I would like them to be. My plan is to press for more cervical checks and if there is no response, back to the high risk dr. Guess I can't really see why they would tell me no, I cannot have these tests to give me piece of mind that aren't invasive or harmful to my baby and I am paying for. Oops, I mean my babies. See, brain isn't working. Totally forgot there are two in there.
As for my health, stronger today. At my best I did a load of laundry. At my worst, I laid on the couch and wished I wasn't pregnant because it sucks so bad and am I just so tired of being sick. My mom was around most of the day to help with the kids. She is going to stop by tomorrow too for a bit just in case. Wonder how long I can milk getting this help...
