forgot to add
So Mike will definatly be getting extended and will be leaving agian....He was all set to reenlist and get a bonus but as they went through and reviewed his paperwork found out they screwed it up and he was actually never eligable for the bonus...So now were stuck back in the same spot hes leaving and were getting nothing....Dont even know if he will be here for lil beans birth....So right now im just..........fhnWFDAWDBVAID.....YEAH just like that.....
First OB APPT
Ok so had my first actual OB prenatal appt today....
Started off with the nurse taking me back to do my weight and vitals and such...As she was goin through my file she was telling me what all they would be doing for my appt...Said I would have my PAP and pelvic exam and they would try to get the heartbeat but because I was only in my 9th week not to get my hopes up they may not be able to get it....
So i go in get my gown on doc comes in and does my pap after were done with that she's just going over how my thyroid meds are working and stuff then she asks me if I've scheduled my ultrasound yet told her no she was like ok well Ill put it in the computer for you to schedule it so we can get a good record as of now size and age etc...Asked if I was having any other problems concerns etc that I wanted to bring up told her no and that was that...Didn't even attempt to hear a heartbeat at all.
SOOOO.Left that office made my next appt then went to radiology to schedule my ultrasound. Now when I left my OB i was under the assumption she wanted me to have my first ultrasound before the next time she saw me....So I tell the radiology chick i need to schedule one she brings up my file askes me how far along I am and is lookin at the calendar next to her making a face and then she tells me well our schedule isnt out far enough for when we need to schedule it. I kinda gave her a look and was like well she wants me to have it now so whats the problem she was like well no she put routine ultrasound in which means 20 weeks which is november for you so we cant schedule it till oct. We dont schedule it before 20 weeks cause you really cant even see anything.....(BULLPOOP Ive been through three nephews and neice I know you see plenty before hand) so I was like uh no Im gonna go back and talk to my doc.
SO we went BACK to the OB clinic and had the nurse talk to the doc and she was like oh no she wants you in for your 20 week....I was so pissed. I had gotten excited thinkin that I could be goin in in the next few weeks to see the lil bean....Nope sure aint...Insurance only pays for 2 ultrasounds the entire pregnancy unless some complication comes up.
So really didn't leave the hospital feelin all too happy with the way things are done...I did like my doc but I wont be seeing her next time since they just schedule you with who ever is avalible...SO most likely I will see a different doctor everytime and WHO KNOWS who will actually deliver the bean....But oh well I will take is as it comes and just try to sit back and enjoy the pregnancy that so far hasn't been bad at all.

Just wanna know.....
Yeah so it's been a while since I've posted anything just since I haven't had the motivation nor the reason to. Living day to day life is really not that interesting. But I guess I'll catch those up that I haven't talked to.
When I went in for my preliminary blood work they called me back to let me know my TSH (thyroid) levels were off. Yeah I could have told them that would have happened I do only have the left side after all lol...The normal level is 3 to 3.5 at most mine came back 8.8 So I had to make an appt with my normal doc since the OB didn't wanna put me on anything....So at the other docs they decided they can't really do a whole lot since I am pregnant so all the radiation treatments and such that I went through last year for the other side of my thyroid are out of the question so they went ahead and just put me on meds. I do have to go in and have an ultrasound done on my neck to note what it looks like now before the meds really start working and I have to go in every 6 weeks to have my levels checked agian and see my doc....So i have the ultrasound on my neck this friday and next week I have my first OB appt wohooo...Need prayers and crossed fingers that every thing comes out just fine.
Other then that pregnancy is going just about as good as I would like. Only had a few really bad bouts with the with the morning sickness so far knock on wood so im not complainin too much.
Mike has to go in and see the colonel today...were hoping its gonna be to either tell him for sure if hes goin agian or gonna be able to get out.....I really doubt it but like Mike said he hasn't done anything wrong for a while so what else could it be lol....
On that whole subject I'm just ready to know a answer. Don't really care which way it goes anymore I would just like to KNOW so we can prepare. If he goes he misses the last few months of the pregnancy, chance of missing the birth and mostly miss most of the first year. BUT we wouldn't have to worry about getting cut off insurance or how the hell we were gonna afford to have this baby etc. But if he doesn't have to go and is able to get out I'll be worrying about money insurance since we will be cut off once hes out and just all the whats gonna happens....BUT he will be home....he wont miss a thing......So either way theres pros and cons I would hate to so which I would prefer since I know the choice isnt up to us really....I would just prefer to KNOW.
