In Other News

Violetta the First deserved her own post. In other news, I had my day 7 ultrasound and blood work today. Things are going well...I have A LOT of follicles. My dose is being cut in half for tonight. Back in tomorrow for more poking and prodding. I hope they don't want me to come back on Wednesday as well, as we are about the get bitch slapped with a colossal snow storm here in the Boston area over the next two days. Good thing I married that guy with the pick-up truck.

And a funny, annoying irony I wanted to share from last week. Tuesday afternoon, I'm in the bathroom, discovering the blood. And my phone started to ring. I didn't answer of course, but it was the OB/GYN's office, who I haven't seen in six months since I traded up to the RE. Talk about timing. They left a message stating that I was overdue for a follow-up pap smear to my abnormal from last year. Apparently, I should have followed up in September.

Funny thing is, Dr. S never mentioned following up in six months when I saw her last March. I seem to remember her saying that everything looked fine. She would do a pap smear in one of my first visits once I was pregnant. So I shouldn't worry. Guess she didn't think it would take this long.

Thanks for rubbing it in.
