Except, I knew what to expect this time and was even more disappointed. :(
They took blood work, urine sample, asked the same questions several times. The nurse I had was unbelievable. You could tell she was the "mother" of the staff. Everyone reported the problems to her and she was able to direct the other ladies seamlessly to cover everything all while concentrating and being super attentive to me. She was awesome. I would love to have her help every time!
So when I asked if they told her I was coming from the fertility specialist and expecting twins- I was shocked when she said there was no report. She even seemed surprised that no information was passed on. The only information they passed on was my appointment time. That made me feel so unimportant. I seriously called and explained all the details, let them know I was bringing paperwork, and even made kind of a big deal about having multiples- not a care was given. TAKE ME BACK TO DR. KRAUSE!!!
So I got over it and carried on. I had a limited and quick conversation with the nurse practitioner, set up the first available ultrasound appointment (Next week!) and got done and out- although all that took over an hour. Part of that hour was spent in the waiting room (no big deal, waiting is part of the game) listening to a pair of mothers guess when their teens had sex by comparing the due date given by the doctor and where the teens were and when. So here I sit just being "normal."
Some awesome-ness though, I went to yoga tonight. Before the transfer, I was hardcore working out every Tuesday and Thursday with a cool group of fit camp buddies. Since the transfer, I have been taking it SO easy. Like walking was the extent of my exercise. :) I missed that hour twice a week. Tonight was awesome. It was relaxing and so good to stretch and chill.
More awesome news, I haven't thrown up since last Tuesday! Yay!!! I woke up last Wednesday and the nausea was barely there and it's only gotten better! Here I am listening to every sign and signal from my body, trying to focus on what my body is saying. I still have the itchiness- so theres a sign things are still moving and grooving. I almost miss the nausea because it was a sign that things were happening. Almost. I still feel tired but I can get stuff done! The last few weeks I was just working on surviving.
A huge THANK YOU for being part of my circle!!
