So, my OB appt today sucked! I have super low Iron & super high Sugar. Not only did I fail my 1hr glucose, I BOMBED it. Bad. Hello, Gestational Diabetes & 4x per-day finger pricks. Hello, Nutritionist. Hello, Iron Suppliments. Hello, weekly Dr. appts & bi-weekly ultrasounds.
To top it all off, I'm TERRIFIED of needles, I don't care how small, the extra lancets they gave me don't fit so I only have the ones that came with it which will last only 2 days, and I can't get the stupid freakin' thing to work to prick my finger! I have to start tracking this crap in the morning so it looks like I'm going to have to drive 20 minutes to the Pharmacy so they can show me wtf is going on with it!
Andplusalso, they're keeping me on moderate bed rest and full pelvic rest. I shouldn't be on my feet for more than 5-10 minutes at a time.
FML! Is it June yet?!
Ohhhhhhhhh. And DS is sick. He's been spiking fevers on and off since last night. No clue why.
Life is just peeeeeeachy right now. -_-
Oh that really sucks. I hope your week gets better.

Just a minor one today - my midwife appointment had to be rescheduled (the one I was scheduled to see was at the hospital with 3 laboring patients which...fine). The only time they had available requires me to get to work hella early so I can see my own patients and then rush over to their office where I'm sure I'll sit for 20 minutes past my appt time before I even get into an exam room.
Had to send my son to the store for hemorrhoid stuff and shave gel. I was more embarrassed than he was. When he brought it home he said here is your lady cream and butt pills.

My HR department wants proof of pregnancy before they will give me any kind of paperwork for FMLA/STD. Uh, isn't the belly enough? Maybe I should send them a pee stick.
Also, I'm not sure my manager fully realizes what kind of hell she will be in for the 12 weeks I'm not there. Tonight was a total disaster because NO ONE knows how to do anything. And she won't give me time to train anyone on anything either. I have never made it through even a week long vacation without at least one phone call asking me to walk them through something. My job specifically deals with shipping hazmat on trucks and planes...not exactly something I'm going to be able to teach someone overnight.
megd893 it drives me nuts when DH says he'll getup with DD when she randomly wakes in the middle of the night and then gets all pouty about it when he actually has to get up. He takes his sweet ass time doing it and sometimes she's hysterical by the time he get there. And I'm wide awake. I'll do it myself then!
@pcrunk sorry you're stuck at home with no oj or creamer. I hate not being able to get anywhere I need to get to.
+1 my DH does this too. Or if he does go in he'll spend 2 min come back and wake me up claiming he doesn't know what's wrong. Usually she's poopy or she just wants to be picked up and rocked for 5 min then she'll pass out in her crib again. It's not that hard!!!!!
