Catch up

Monday, June 20, 2005

So, it's been a few days, let me get you caught up.

Saturday was my first official, over the top freak out. Doctors called and all. I woke up Saturday morning and had more spotting, but this time it was a little different. There was a little bit of blood. Other than the spotting I felt fine but I totally freaked out, almost hypervenalated and everything. I swear people if Ian make it through this pregnancy with out losing his mind right along with me, it will be a miracle! Thank god for Ian, I can only imagine what I would have done if this had happened and he wasn't home...can you say 911! Ok so I start freaking out going crazy because it is also Saturday and the doctor's office is closed on Saturday. I call the office anyway and they take my name and number and say the on-call Dr. will call me back. So I wait....the receptionist calls back and connects me with the doctor on-call. The doctor says hello and it sound like she is a million miles away in a tin can! I can't hear a thing so I keep saying "hello?...I can't hear you....excuse me?....I can barly hear you!!" So then the doctor starts screaming into the phone(still I can just hear what she is saying) So I tell her what is going on and she says "Well, it could be a miscarage or it could be nothing. You can go to the emergency room if you want." Just like that!!! So now I am crying histerically, there wasn't an ounce of sympathy in this woman's voice, I was devastated. Now Ian is trying to consol me and help me through the crying fit I'm throwing. He asked me what I thought and I said I wasn't sure. I felt pretty normal I just wanted to know why I had the blood spotting. I calmed down enough to take a shower and there was no more spotting after the first episode so I decided we should all go to work and I will take it extra easy and see how it goes. I had a little more spotting but it was the brownish stuff that is supposed to be normal, and by noon everything was back on track. 100% normal again.

So that was Saturday. Sunday was a great day! No issues with the pregnancy just happy ol' me. Ian and I drove up to NY to pick up Scott to spend Father's Day together and it was great! We went back on the trails behind Ian's parents house to the "Boodle Hole" which is a stream with a waterfall and a swim hole that is probably one of the most beautiful places on the planet. We carved Scott's initails in the sign-in tree and Ian went swimming in the freezing cold water. It was sooo much fun, I love it back there. Then we went back to Ian's parents house and Ian's dad, Ian and Scott raced around on the atv's and mini bike all day. They had a blast! It was so amazing to see 3 generations playing together. It was a great father's day treat.

And now today, pretty much just cleaning all day. One of the puppies went to stay with it's new owner for the week, since she is on vacation this week, they are starting to bond. So now we're down to just 2. They go to the vet next Wednesday to get all their shots and then they start to go to their new families. Ian and I bought a "What to expect when you're expecting Calandar" It's really cool, you fill out the dates starting with the first day of your last cycle and it goes week by week through your pregnancy and you fill it out as you go. There's even spots to put your belly shots each trimester. I love it! So I worked on that for a while this morning, then filled out paper work for my doctor's appointment tomorrow. My 1st ultrasound has changed from July 5th to the 14th. The 5th was just going to be too hard to make after the long holiday weekend so the 14th will be better for all of us. They said I could wait until the 20th but I really don't think I could. It's going to be hard enough to wait for the 14th!!

Well I guess that's it for tonight. I'll try to post again tomorrow after the doctor's visit.
