Had my first OB appt yesterday.....


MomToJade&Jordan wrote: It went pretty well. I got a bit nostalgic driving up to Tripler. I haven't been there since Jade was born and it was kind of a hey I'm pg moment. The nurse decided to count my last true AF on Dec 29th so I am 9 weeks and due on Oct 5th. I just can't believe it. The only bad thing about the appt was getting someone who didn't know how to stick a needle in my arm. The first time I guess she didn't get the vein right so it was going slow and then stopped. She decided to take that one out and try the other arm. Again she didn't find the vein right so she had to call someone over and this woman was moving this needle around in my arm. It's a good thing that I don't get sqeemish about this stuff. My next appt is on March 16th.

Sorry bout the poking. I have to have my blood drawn A LOT and get shots every week and that happens to me a lot. sad.gif

Brenda2005 replied: Oh i can't wait until i go for my first OB! Maybe they can figure out when my actual due date is..darn nurse..how could you not know how to stick a vein..sorry you had to go thru that sad.gif

Josie83 replied: Wow, nine weeks? thumb.gif Thsi baby's going to be here before you know it! Sorry about the fathead who couldn't find your vein dry.gif Have you told Jade yet? xx

MomToJade&Jordan replied: I have asked Jade if she would like a baby brother or sister and she has pretty muched ignored me. LOL!!!!!! I think I will ask again a little further down the line. She is very quick to tell everyone that I'm her mommy so I guess we shall see how it goes. You know you would think since that woman was in the lab she would know how to stick someone. She seemed really nervous so I probably got a newbie. Tripler is an Army training hospital so there are times where you will run into someone who isn't as sure about what they are doing then others. My right arm has bruised where she managed to blow my vein. That would explain why it was sluggish and then stopped. The other arm looks fine. I have tricky veins as it is.

MommyToAshley replied: How exciting... the first OB appointment. I think I would have been all sentimental too.

Sorry about that darn nurse, you would think that taking blood is one of the first things they learn how to do!

That's funny about Jade. I am sure once the baby is born, she will make a great big sister! thumb.gif

Hillbilly Housewife replied: You know.... Both our first kids were born on the same date.... wouldn't it be funny if these kiddoes were born on the same date too? lol!
