Morning girls!
I am in better spirits today - last night I took my dog for a walk and gave her a bath, and went grocery shopping. I also came to terms with my hair and today I don't care what people say. I CAN pull it off and you know what, it's not that dramatic - I can still put it in a tiny pony just like I always do, and the blonde highlights are kind of fun. So I am sucking it up.
My OBGYN appt was LONG - 2 hours!! But it was good. THey found right away (I say they b/c there was an intern as well, both women) that my cervix bleeds right away - which has NOTHING to do with fertility, thank goodness. And they found that I have wonky hormones, but are checking me out. I go for blood tests on the third day of my cycle (which is this week sometime) and the 23rd day. and an ultrasound for my ovarian cyst. And I see her in 6 weeks. The OBGYN was very good and very encouraging. She also had the same hair as me
So of course I liked her a lot. Plus, she delivers at the hospital I want.
YOu know, it hit me for the first time, that we are REALLY trying. I mean, I can have a baby this time next year. I better really focus on getting my body in good shape b/c it's not just me -it's a little life that will depend on my body! That is totally scary!! Being at the OBGYN really drove it home. Happily, all my tests from my physical in May were perfect - cholesterol, CBC, thyroid, heart rate, blood pressure, all that. But she is doing them all again,just to be sure -which is nice too.
Anyway, just a scary thought for your Tuesday morning.
Aimee- your friend is one of "those". There are people that just don't have regard for others the way we do!! I am sorry that you had to deal with that!
Kier - does your vote count in your drug induced haze?
Ali - you are right, it has been a tough October altogether. How about we elect November as a fresh start and focus on the 8.5 weeks to the end of the year!?
I am going to upodate my New Year New Body challenge...
