The doctor's appointment yesterday went fairly well. Our little "Tune" (short for Neptune of course) is looking good and growing like a weed. The ultrasound results look normal and we got to hear her heartbeat for about 5 seconds. I've been having some trouble with swelling in my feet so the doctor said to cut back on the sodium. We'll give that a whirl and see how it goes.
The downside is that we're getting very frustrated with our doctor's office, and the doctor we saw today in particular. They almost seem annoyed by our questions (maybe 1 or 2 per visit, it's not like we come in with a novel) and tend to brush off any concerns we have while making us feel totally stupid for being concerned at all. Yesterday's doc, was horrible. He didn't introduce himself, touched my stomach for about 2 seconds and listened to the heartbeat for less than 5 seconds. I felt like screaming, "I understand that you hear these heartbeats all day long, but this is our BABY, our everything. We look forward to these appointments so even if you don't want to hear it, we'd like to listen for a little longer if that's okay!" We had to ASK him for the results of the ultrasound to which he flipped pages in my chart and said, "everything is in the normal range." I don't feel like I should have to ASK for test results. I'm just frustrated and will probably be finding another doc for our next baby.
On a good note, I got my first official "Mommy Do" hairdo last night. I had 10 inches cut off and they are going to donate it to Locks of Love for me. It's pretty short but will be much nicer for the summer.
