    Pre-warning of major vent! I've gone from feeling really happy to see those lovely two lines to feeling very p****d off at the moment. I made an appointment to see a doctor at the local medical centre today and had to wait from 5 until nearly 6. The doctor (one of the ones from overseas that now operate out of medical centres out west) asked me when my LMP was and I told him February 6 and he did a double take, looked at the date on his watch and commented it was early to be finding out. I let that go. I told him that I'd had an early pg failure last October and he asked me what blood group I was (A-) and then what blood group my DP is (O+) and said that could be a reason why I can't maintain a pregnancy, although as the other m/c was so early it could have been from other reasons. Then he made me do another pregnancy test and while we both stood and watched the two lines come up, he said it was only just positive and that I'd have to come in to have a blood test done to confirm the pregnancy. He asked me how many lines I'd seen on the HPT (WTF!!). Anyway, if the blood test confirms the pregnancy, I'll have to come back for a pre-natal appointment and have an ultrasound at 15 weeks and at 20 weeks.
    I'm just so glad that I'll be out of here at the end of the year. I just feel like this one's not going to stick now. Even my breasts aren't feeling as swollen. So depressed.
    Oh, and the other reason I went there was to get some antibiotics for a sinus infection. Of course, the pharmacy was shut by the time I left the medical centre so now I have another sleepless night ahead of me. I hate living in the country.
    Sorry for the rant.
