Q: 7 Weeks, And Blood Work. Eck.

First of all, I would like to say, thanks for all the kind replies! I appreciate them! I went to the health dept. Yesterday for a full work-up. I had my blood drawn for the first time in my life.... I didn't handle it too great, lol, but I made it through. At least I know what to expect next time! They also took another urine sample to test my sugar levels. All my tests came back good, my iron levels were good, sugar levels weren't too high, and my hemoglobin was where it should be. So I can say, i'm healthy! She also gave me my due date, which is april 13th, a day later than I had calculated. Right now i'm waiting for medicaid to be finalized before I can pick a doctor, but until it goes through, the health dept. Does all my appointments for free. I'm really glad for that, because I have a car payment of $221.03 every month (i was in a wreck and totaled my first vehicle in may, so I had to get another.), and my job doesn't pay very much. Anyway, I just wanted to keep you all updated. Smile
