Baby, Bloodwork And Voting

This morning I had another prenatal appointment. For some reason I thought 8:30 am would be a great idea and I was so wrong. We were rushing around to get out the door on time, and I was still about 7 minutes late for my appointment. I apologized to the receptionist but I didn't say anything to my doctor. Why? Because he's always about 10 minutes late to see me and never apologizes.

Oh yeah, I was petty.

So, here's the update.

I was really, really nervous to be weighed today considering I've been having regular late nights hanging out with these guys...



I love them like I love air. And my children.

Anyway...

Remember how I've only gained 3 lbs so far? Well, I've lost them. So now I sit at a zero weight gain. Being "fluffy" has it's perks. My doctor is not concerned at all, so I'm not either.

My blood pressure was high this morning but again, he wasn't too concerned. He sent me for more bloodwork and I have another bio-physical profile on the 9th. This will be ultrasound #6. I read somewhere that a lot of ultrasounds aren't that safe so I hope it's ok that I'm having yet another one.

Everything seems to be going well though and I go back in two weeks.

I stopped off to get my bloodwork done on my way home from work and I got The Stabber again. She is one rough technician. I kept leaning forward and psst-ing the technician covering the desk to help me. She didn't. She told me after she knew what I was doing but couldn't help me. She's a cold one.

There's something weird about that lab that I go to. Today there was a woman sitting across from me giving me dirty looks like I just ran over her dog or something. I was about to say something but was stopped in my tracks when the man next to me sneezed all over my arm, then stared at me blankly. I looked at him and said "I believe the word you're looking for is EXCUSE ME!"

Grody.

Last stop on my way home was to vote. I love that I live in a country that allows me the freedom to say who I want as my Prime Minister. I can't wait until the polls close and the ballots are counted. There's no way I'll be able to stay up that late for the results so I'll have to be patient for tomorrow morning.

Whew.

And that's a wrap.
