Sorry I didn't update earlier. I didn't have any power all day until about 5 minutes ago.
Ultrasound 2 went really well. Saw a teeney tiny itty bitty little blip on the screen, which was pretty neat. Heartbeat 127 beats per minute. That rocks.
Then I got home to discover that the bleeding has picked up in intensity, but my doctor wasn't concerned, so I'm not either. I'm just one of the lucky ones. Yay. Or something.
The OB I painstakingly picked out turned out to be the same one that my RE recommended, but the practice turns out not to be accepting new patients. It's the first time since this whole pregnancy thing seemed to start becoming real-ish that I've really wanted to cry. I don't know what I'm going to do. I hate doctors. I really do. But I thought I'd made a good choice based on some really good recommendations, and I can't just go asking all my friends who they see, because people in this neighborhood talk, and they will ALL decide that I'm pregnant, even if I just say I need a GYN for an annual girlie exam. I don't know how to do this and I HATE it.
Right.
Pregnancy hormones, anyone? Ahem.

Big celebration and big sigh of relief that you heard the heartbeat! Yeah!
It's still not fair that you are having the bleeding, but I'm so glad that you saw the heartbeat. That's a big hurdle to overcome. I hope you continue to receive only good news from now on.
Sorry about the ob thing. It's so hard to find a Dr. that you are happy with, then to find out you can't get in sucks!
Could you go back to the RE and ask for another recommendation or ask the practice that won't take patients to refer you to another Dr. Either of them should be able to give you a good recommendation somewhere else, that way you don't have to ask friends or family. I'm sure since the office doesn't take new patients that they would be happy to refer you to one of their associates.
Well, I hope you can enjoy yourself and relax a little this weekend, I'm so glad you got good news at the ultrasound!
