Well...the ultrasound tech....was possibly worse then the last visit. Same guy *sigh* MORE PAIN! I still hurt 3 hours later.

He informed me about 3/4's of the way through the ultrasound that he had to go talk to the doctor to see if their was anything else he needed to do..."just routine" Well....he's never done it before. So my mommy instinct when into panic zone. Though was praying hard and trying not to panic.
Keep in mind this ultrasound tech NEVER lets you see the picture, so I can't even focus on the baby.
He comes back. Gets me in tears (literally) because he was pushing so hard in my pelvis area. And then says hang on I have to go back to the doctor. Okay now I've LOST it!
He could tell I was upset. He said whats wrong? I said...I'm trying not to freak here. He said talk to me. I said. No! My husbands a nurse, I know you will NOT tell me anything. He said just relax
HAHAHAHAHA
He left the room. And I cried in earnest tears streaming down my face. Got myself under control by the time he comes back.
He comes in with a resident. Resident says...that everything looks normal. There just having a hard time getting a measurement of the babies head. They think its the equipment though. (whatever) Everythings fine he says...and leaves. The ultrasound tech cleans me off with the towel--did you know that you can HURT somebody with a towel. Well you can, its happened to me twice now. *sigh*
So....do I believe the resident. I guess I have to. I made it to the van before I cried again. Then prayed on my way to McD's to pick up my kids who are playing there with grandma. They are just leaving (long story) and think they get to go to grandma's house. I'm not willing to argue with them. LOL I cry telling my mom. I'm so stinking worried that the resident is just pacifying me. She says call your midwife make her find out whats going on. So I tell her bye leave the kids with her, and go to find a pay phone.
Pull up to a pay phone, and a lady gets out in front of me and starts talking on it. *sigh*
Drive another half a mile to look for a different pay phone. Get out. Use the Calling Card to call DH (Its long distance) Have to dial the stupid calling card number 3x before I hit all the digets right. hehe Bawl on the phone to him too. (gotta love being prego) He says CALL the midwife. So I get off put my .50 in to call midwife. Get a wrong number.
Find another .50 put it in the phone. Get the receptionist. Calmly explain that I'm worried would appreciate knowing what is going on. She says probably I won't be able to find out tell tomorrow, (they are open) so call then if I don't get a call back.
Get something to eat and drive to my moms. Get my kids come home realize the computer has turned itself online. So they could not get through to me. Call and talk to the receptionist. She says no we definitely can't find anything out right now. Call tomorrow. Okay...I've calmed down enough that I can wait 'til tomorrow (reasonably well) Get off the phone. Get online. Answering machine online service comes on. Its the midwife. She says I quote...."I think its reasonable that you wait until tomorrow to find out the results of your ultrasound."
Okay...how incredibly rude is that statement? This is NOT the midwife I like. I prefer the other one. Now I know why....Gotta start praying that I go into labor on my other midwifes working days. (worked last time lol)
So waiting 'til tomorrow to find out any news. Gonna be a long night.
On a different note...I have to share this picture I doctored of Kaylin.

Great picture of Kaylin. Sorry they worried you so much. I hope you get some answers soon!!! GRRRR
Tonia - I'm sorry it was so traumatic for you. I'm sure it will be ok. I will say a prayer for you and your baby. I know he/she will be ok. It was probably just an inexperienced and insensitive resident... That doesn't make it RIGHT, but maybe that's all it was...
Hang in there!
