Well had my clinic appt today which turned out to be very very frustrating!
The doctor i saw has only seen me once before and i'm not a huge fan!! He dismissed any issues with the growth discrepancy infact was dissmissive about most of my fears and questions (being a nurse i know i'm not always the easiest patient!) he then said see you in 2 weeks - what the! Firstly i thought i went to weekly visits from 34weeks second i thought they were inducing me at 36weeks (in 2 weeks?) and third i'm not happy going 2 weeks without monitoring given my little one hasn't gained much weight. I did however go to the appt in the hope that potentially i might get a date in the next week or so for delivery and i'm just so uncomfortable, bored and very very over it and hormonal that i was set off by his lack of interest or care. He then checked my bp which suprise suprise was elevated (i was on the verge of tears) I tried to explain to him that i get high bp with anxiety/stress and if left for a min it will come down (which is how all my other appts have gone) but once again he dissmissed that and sent me straight to pregnancy day stay for 4 hours of bp monitioring bloods and urine. He didn't even finish his consultation before walking me there and leaving me. The nurse was great and listened to my concerns i have asked not to be seen by him again and will be seen for monitoring Monday and clinic Friday so hopefully will get some better answers this week.
I know that the bubs are better off in me than having to go to the special care nursery but iv'e just had enough - i will calm down and begin to be rational - i'm off now to have a long bath and hopefully a good night sleep!
Sorry for the vent!!!!!!
