almost had a breakdown...

I had a different doctor at my routine monthly appointment on friday. As usual, she got out the doppler to monitor my baby's heartbeat. My primary doctor always found the heartbeat right away. It took her 5 minutes. I almost started to cry. But finally she found it right above my belly button ...it was 140 bpm. I also had to take my 1 hour glucose test. The drink tastes exactly like Hi-C. Butgood thing came out of it...I get to have a free 3D ultrasound at 30 weeks...so excited. I can't wait to see my baby boy again! ♥

Yeah well I have stretchmarks but she didn't say anything. She was really nice and upbeat it just was nerve wracking when she kept saying stop hiding little baby over and over...but that didn't calm me down until I had proof my baby was still alive lol

Omg during my first pregnancy I went to my ob for a normal visit and there was a dr in training and I was like ok she can "practice" on me well she was not professional at all!  She took forever to find the heartbeat then she guess the size of my uterus when measuring, then she had the nerve to comment on my stretch marks!!!  Ugh!  When mg dr came in the room she said it might be likely for her to be in my delivery room! I straight up told my dr if that lady came in my at all I'd most likely give her a piece of my mind and throw something at her!
