Meeting the last docor...

We finally met the last of the four doctors that could be delivering our baby. This is the doctor that our friend, Shiara, sees. She has been braging about her doctor from day one, even though we say our doctor is the best. Well, when we were there for our appointment the nurse didn't even call us back until 5 minutes after our appointed time. Then after she did her little check up we had to wait 25 minutes for Doctor Lee to make an entrance! We couldn't believe it. I know this is not normal for her because I doubt that Shiara would stand for that, but it was still shocking. Dusty and I keep thinking about the Jerry Seinfeld stand up where he talks about doctors making you wait, just because they can. "... Just once I want to say, "I'm not ready for you yet, go back in your office... and take your pants off."" If you haven't seen it, it's pretty funny. After all that we found out that I hardly gained any weight this last week (only .6 lbs, yay!), that I tested negative for Strep B (definatly good news, hopefully no IV during labor), and that my blood pressure is a little high. Now every week I have to give a urine sample to make sure I don't get Preeclampsia and I have to watch to make sure I don't suddenly swell. So far I have only been swelling after I have been walking around a lot and it usually goes down once I rest a little and/or drink water. Hopefully it stays that way because I like being able to wear my wedding ring.
