16-7-2009 - Disappointing 34wks 5days NST & doc appt

My mood while writing this blog: DISAPPOINTED

---

I was just a little to upset about how my appointment went yesterday to blog......So anyway here is how my disappointing day went......First we went to the NST appt, Everything went great so off to the doc appt. The waiting rm was full and they kept telling me, "I'm so sorry, there isnt a rm available for you yet!" I waited there for 1 1/2hrs contracting and feet swelling. It was awful! My doc office breaks for lunch at 12 so I was finally seen at 1215. She was on vaca last wk and her partner told me she didnt see why we couldnt schedule our c sec date when my doc returned for July 31/37wks. Well my doc doesnt want to do that and wants me to deliver before 38 and is thinking the first week of Aug. :( I am in so much pain and I miserable and feel like she doesnt care. She said she wants to ensure that the babies do not have any health issues and avoid NICU. I really think its bc she doesnt deliver me after July. I have to have one of her partners bc shes quiting ob. Great huh? She said she wants me in next wed. for a u/s and we will schedule at that time pending the u/s results. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED! I get hm bummed out and my Mom asks how many wks I am again after I told her what happened and I tell her 35 even though I 34 5 and she said so really you got like a month and a wk left. I am so sick of her counting to 40 when I have stressed and stressed to her that twins do not go to 40! She thinks they do bc her cousin had a friend that did! Well good for her! I'M NOT! I'm in pain and so sick of my family and their unconsiderate bull S***! My Dad and I got into a screaming match 2 days ago and we are not speaking now! I cant take much more from them! I cant wait until they get their own place which isnt until I go back to work bc they want to help us out...... :( I havent lived with my Dad since high school and we didnt get a long and build a good relationship until I moved out! Now living together again we are butting heads especially since hes living in my house! aghhhhhh! So anyway my day goes on.......I've been on bed rest for 3 mos now and wasnt able to attend any classes so I called a local lactate consultant to come to the house to inform us about nursing the twins. She was weird! She wants to do a couple things with me that I'm not liking so much.....not to mention she didnt give me her price! She wants to be in the delivery rm, which I dnt see a point nor do I want bc thats our moment! She wants me to hold off on bath for 24 hrs so the amnioc fluid remains on baby making it easier to nurse. Eww! She wants me to hold for two hours this eye drop and viatmin k which I dnt agree with either. Then after 24hrs she wants herself and my husband to bath our girls! Aghhhh! Noooo! Our moment again! She also suggested that I breastfeed for 3wks before touching a pump and I expressed that I wish to do it sooner! So she said I should wait 7-10 days. Aghhh! ok I guess I can handle that but I wanted my husband to be able to help feed and so did he want too! Every 3 hours....for 7 days its going to be all me! It will be tough but I guess if I have to I will, but I bought a great pump so I'm not sure! I guess I will wait until my milk is fully in and go from there! I seriously think I'm done with this lady though! I also decided to tell my doc after next wed u/s pending everything is GREAT that I want my c sec July 31/37 wks and if she doesnt want to do it bc its her last day then I'll take a partner! I'm going to express to her that everywhere I have read it has stated that full term twins is 36-37wks, We discussed at out first appt twin delivery was btwn 34-36, my girls have been healthy...they weighed 4lbs each at 31wks and I had the steroid injections at 24wks!
