Well, I went off to my appointment today. It was interesting trying to tell the receptionist my name and not throw up (god I hate m/s).
anyway, finally got in to see Dr Fisher and she was lovely, as usual. she tolerated all of my questions, but did mention quite a few times that it would be unlikely that I'd be allowed to go into labor which is really disappointing.
other than that, she checked my bp and it was fine, so i was happy about that.
I've made an appointment for 5 weeks time, but have to play it by ear as to whether i actually get to go on that date or have to change it lol
i have a boxer due to whelp then, one on the 27th, so i might be playing midwife myself.
anyway, wandered up to the hospital to ask a question or two and the midwife spotted me with a pathology form and told me to go and get the blood test done. then i got a student nurse (I don't mind) who was a bit worried about taking blood because i was pretty dehydrated. it was suggested that I have more barley sugar and more water or Dr Fisher will chuck me in hospital on a drip until my hydration improves. if that isn't motivation to keep liquids down, I don't know what is lol wonder if i can convince my stomach of this? lol time will tell.
anyway, apparently I'll be seeing the midwives next time, I don't know of Dr Fisher will be there too, but I have found that I am really nervous going to the doc, but then I'm nervous about pretty much everything right now.
so guys, there's my long-winded update after my appointment!
hope everyone is well!
Jenna
