Midwife Appointment Posted: 05-17-07 11:23am
hey everyone, i had an
app with my midwife today she took blood
(ouch) she bruised me. But i heard the
babys heartbeat and it brought tears to my
eyes knowing the baby was okay... cause
the only time i seen the baby and saw the
heartbeat was at my 12wk scan. and i have
been so worried since today. Was quite
funny she had the heartbeat and the baby
kept moving.
(haha) x seems very active as it was on my
12wk scan... well im 17weeks today and
have my 20wk scan june13th cant wait

she tried ages ago to get blood when i was
12wks but gave up. so i went back today
and she was getting blood but then it
stopped:( and then she had to get blood
from my hand.
she had to take alot for down syndrome
and other things.
But yeah its all going great thanx

Whenever I got my blood drawn for my GD
test it seriously took like 5 minutes to
get enough blood because she said that I
was dehydrated. I can totally believe that
because I am thirsty all the time and by
the time that I had gotten to take the
test I hadn't had anything to drink in
several hours. I usually drink one bottle
of water and hour! I hope that isn't too
much but my water bill has skyrocketed (i
have to buy all bottled) so I should
probably try to slow down.

It always took age for them to get my
blood Apparently i have
nice veins (great to know) but they are
very reluctant to let their blood go, i
have a freaky body!
