I just love idiots!!!!!!!

ok can we say PISSED off!! I get to my appointment get the same nurse that I can't stand ... She starts telling me that at my next appointment I have to take the Gestational Diabetes test. I politely tell her that I can't do that and I get a disgusted stare, well and WHY NOT?? So I explain to her once again. Well that wasn't good enough for her. Cause well I have to take it cause they are going to give me Rhogam afterwards cause I am RH Neg... HELLO yes I know that I am RH NEg but so is my HUSBAND so I don't need Rhogam. Another dirty look, and well we will just have to talk to the Dr and see what they say.ok I can deal with that. well talk to the Dr all is going fine, she isn't thrilled with me skipping the test but agrees that I don't need the Rhogam. I have to get something stating the hubby's blood type for her. No biggie. Baby is measuringperfectly heartrate 140, blood pressure good, yadda yadda. I asked her for a script for the prenatals that she gave me last time around she said not a prob and ends up just givign me another sample.. That wasn't what I asked for!!! She asked me if there was anything else... uh yeah what about my US?? Well all I get is a blank stare.. US?? Oh was that this time?? Well go out into the waiting room and I'll be right with you. Well, an HOUR later then tell me that they forgot to set up the US appointment and they they will have to set up something. They can TRY and squeeze me in this afternoon though they doubt it. The soonest they can MAYBE get me in is the 11th, of course by that time Jer is going to be back at work and there is NO WAY they will let him have time off since he has just had 2 weeks leave. I am FURIOUS!!! That was the whole point we both wanted to be there. GRRR. Well worse case senario I am going to Myrtle Beach in Oct for the 4d US so that is fine but still... I have been looking forward to today for the last 2 months, hell since the beginning of the pregnancy. so we still have no idea what we are having and have no idea when we will get to find out. I am soo upset. I am determined not to cry about it though. today officially sux already! I swear out of all my pregnancies I have NEVER dealt with more incompetent people than I have this time around.

I'm sorry to hear you had such a bad day. I hope things go better at your next appointment. Judy

Kudos to you for not crying!! I would have been bawling from the get-go! Wow, how utterly beyond frustrating this must be for you...good for you though, for standing up for your right to refuse any test. I refused most of the screening tests during my last pg'cy. You don't have to do anything you don't want or need to do! I'm SOO sorry you didn't get your u/s! But how exciting that you get a 4D u/s! I never had one, but I sure wish I had!

What is the deal with the doctors you see??? I wish to goodness I was there and would go with you next time and set these people straight!!! YOU have got to take CONTROL of the situation. Yes, I would like to have the glucose test, and drink all that and get sick off my butt!! Dummies. I would just tell them that you will call them when you have a problem, and quit going to them. You just are not in good hands. Capable maybe, but not good....they don't seem to care is a better way to put it. I am just sick of those people taking care of you....PLEASE go to MUSC and just be done with them!!! At least MUSC had better care, and were caring and competent. It wouldn't cost you a dime difference, and you will get so much better care!!! If I were your mom.....haha Anyway, I am sooo sorry that you did not get the US. I woulda pitched a fit, and they woulda thrown me out. Miss you!! Deb
