Popped round to my Doctors today, nothing more interesting to report than a wee infection, but was told that he was confused. I was thinking it's just a simple wee infection, nothing tricky about it, even I knew what it was and I hadn't been medically trained for years, please give me some tablets and I'll home and waste no more of your time. He then asked me about recent stay in hospital as he had some letters sent to him. I gave him a brief description of what had happened and my miscarriage and he said he understood it was a very sensitive subject. He went on to say the reason he had to ask was because when my notes came up on the computer it said " 28 weeks and well"
He apologised and said they must be someone elses details put in by mistake.
Hmmm. I've got to blame someone just cos it makes me feel better...I never was too keen on my midwife to be honest. She had a call from her builder and she discussed her new floor for ten minutes during my first appointment with her, asked me "what do you want" when I rang her for the second time when I was worried about four days of spotting and then questioned my mental health when I tried to tell her that I thought there was something wrong with my pregnancy, which there was.
I've been at this surgery since I was seven years old and I wouldn't change as the doctors really are good but I reckon it might have been that bloody midwife.
It's funny, I got all teary just walking into the doctors today. I think it's because just recently it's the place I've had the happiest moments and the saddest.
Anyway, today I love Dr Spittle. We had a nice little chat and he was very understanding and reassured me that it's ok to still be sad about losing our little bean. To be honest I'm finding it much more difficult than I ever imagined.
Anyway ladies, sorry to bore the pants off of you all but just needed to get that little lot off my chest. I got my tablets though so at least it doesnt feel like I'm gonna pee my pants now : )
