Yesterday was such a long day & the crappiness had spilled over from the night before. I only got about 3.5 hours of sleep so you know that's going to be fun. We get ready & I get to my appt 20 minutes early. Sit there, sit there, sit there. It was about 15 minutes after my appt & it was an 8 am appt. She was kind of rude & expected me to remember every med I've been on for the last 13 years. How am I suppose to remember what depression medicine I was on in 2001, I was 17. After the paperwork she went to find an appt & asked if I could come back at 1:40. I wasn't thrilled & I had no idea why I was coming back but ok, sure, whatever. Nurse was suppose to put in a new prenatal but of course when I got to the pharmacy it wasn't put it. I was there for about 2 hours total. You know they need their 10 vials of blood. So, crabby/impatient/whiney kid & I left the hospital to relax at home for a few hours. I went back & again early but once again, waited about 30 mins past my appt which is awesome with a kid already done with being at a hospital. She wasn't too bad but she was super hyper/active because she had been awake since 5:30 & only a 10 minute nap about 9:30. My second appt was for the growth scan since according to my last cycle I was 17-18 weeks & according to sex I was 10wks5days. The doctor/whoever she was walked in & I kid you not, these were her first words to me. "Are you diabetic already? (No) Well guess what you get to do." She could've just told me she'd like me to come do an early g.d. test & I would've understood. But the way she did was very bitchy in my opinion. They assumed I'd have G.D. with Katie because of my size & my scores were fantastic! Then nim-wit does the ultrasound & she barely puts it in & she couldn't find the baby. It really made no sense, it seemed like she didn't know what she was doing & I'm sure she did but she was barely putting it in & putting no real pressure to find the baby. So she leaves & I'm about to bawl because where is my baby. New doctor comes in, very personable & friendly. Finds baby in 3 seconds. My beautiful little munchkin, moving all around, & he/she waved. I saw the heart beat & I was in awe. I kept sighing & they kept asking if I was ok. Of course I'm ok, I am seeing our baby, our beautiful little surprise, alive & well. He/She measured 10wks3days. With Katie she measured 6 days smaller than my EDD so it was nice that this one, maybe because of better machines or just closer to conception, only measured 2 days smaller. June 16th, 2015 our munchkin love is due! YAY!!!!
Katie was such a handful yesterday. I brought her water color book, I brought snacks, we sang our ABCs, she ran around a small room, she was constantly getting up & down. She was whiny & wanted my attention at all times which is hard when trying to get information. I had asked my husband to come to the second appt & I knew he probably couldn't but it would've been nice. He ignored my text. Yesterday was just overwhelming & I know it was hard on her too. I was nauseous, exhausted, & irritable. She was exhausted & bored. 2 overwhelmed girls don't mesh well together.
I have my glucose test on Monday & although my husband's leave starts Monday he has to go into work. So, I will get to deal with most likely extreme nausea & an active crazy 2 year old. I plan to take a backpack with a ton of stuff. Books, crayons, coloring books, toys, lots of snacks for her. I hope I can keep her entertained good enough & I hope I can keep the drink down. I know last time they made me very nauseous & I didn't have a issue with nausea/morning sickness. I battle nausea/morning sickness with this pregnancy so adding a strong nausea inducing drink won't help. My suppose to be babysitter for all my appts is still working her regular job which is her prerogative honestly but kind of sucks when I could use being kid free. Oh well. Millions of moms have done it before me, I can do it. It'll hopefully be over within 90 minutes. Ha, I know how unlikely that'll be, probably take 30 minutes just to get the drink, then it'll probably be past an hour when I get called back for blood. These people aren't timely. :)
As for Katie. She is so full of energy & joy. She's obsessed with the moon, clocks, trucks, buses, SPIDERS, almost anything. She's so curious & excited. She likes to say/sing 'Happy Birthday To You' & 'Let it Go'. We haven't even seen Frozen but she loves that song & the snowman. We got a little snow this week & she said it was "a snowman!". She's so loving & caring. When I get sick she always asks if I'm ok. If I look sad she'll ask if I'm ok. She'll rub my face & tell me it's ok. She's going to be a great big sister & she's fascinated by babies. She gets upset if she hears a baby crying & yesterday she walked over to stare at a newborn baby boy. I'm so excited to see her relationship with the new baby. I really do love that kid. As much of a pain she is & as overwhelmed I get with her, she's an amazing kid. She is such a light in my life. Oh! And we've finally broken the public toilet barrier. She will pee in a public toilet now! Thank freaking goodness! She started Thursday night. Sigh of relief since we're about to be traveling to Kansas & not having to take her toilet is nice. :)
