22 weeks

I had a prenatal appt. today at Rockwood at 8am in the morning. Jacob came and picked me up at about 7:40. It was a good appointment. I really like the doctor that I have at Rockwood. Since now that I go to St. Vincent, I do not have to visit the doctor at Rockwood but I had a bad experience at St. Vincent last week. The doctor that I would normally have, Dr. Jacobson, wasn't there so I had the doctor that substitutes for her when she is unavailable. Dr. Jacobson specifically asked me to come in every week to check my cervix and make sure that it isn't getting any shorter. Well, the doctor I had told me that I can just come back in two weeks. He was not very informational at all. When I went to go make my next appointment, the receptionist asked me how I liked that doctor and I told her that he wasn't very good at all. She said that a lot of women complain about him. I told her how he told me to come back in two weeks instead of next week so she told me to go ahead and keep the appointment that I had with Rockwood so that I was getting checked every week. I weighed in at 116 lbs today. I am still 2 pounds underweight. My blood pressure was 104/64, which is good compared to my sisters who had complications with high blood pressure with their pregnancy. We got to hear the baby's heartbeat, she had to keep moving the thing around because the baby kept moving around, wouldn't stay in one spot. She measured my uterus and that is looking good as well. She still wants to see me because over at St. Vincent's they are more concerned about me being a high risk pregnancy. She wants me to be able to enjoy every little thing even if my pregnancy is a little different than normal. We watched a pre-term labor video and then made an appointment with for next time and got all my paperwork for that day. I see her again on the 31st, which I look forward to. I have my appointment at St. Vincent next week and hopefully that will be a better one than the last.
