I had a drs appt today, to help figure out why my blood pressuer is high. The appt itself was short and sweet. Then I had to go to the lab to get blood drawn and give a urine sample. Then I headed home to figure out how I was supposed to go get a chest xray with a infant. So I recruited Stacey to tag along to babysit while I got my xray taken. I didnt know why I was getting a chest xray, thought it better to not as the dr why. But they did the xray then said to wait to make sure they got what they needed. After what seemed like forever the nurse/tech came back and asked if I had high blood pressure. I told her what was going on. Then she asked if I had asthma or any other problems, I said no. She walked out then came back and said they needed to take one more xray. So they did, then I had to wait again to make sure they had what they needed, then I was allowed to go. All the while Caleb slept next to Stacey in the waiting room. So if I wasnt worried before, I am now. I just cant figure out why the xray tech would ask that.
The highlight of the xray was beforehand when they asked if there was a chance I was pregnant, every other time I’d had a xray I always had to say yes there was, but this time I quickly said no. So she asked when my last period was, I laughed and said well I had a baby 6 weeks ago if that helps, and she laughed. And I said I better not be pregnant, although I wouldnt be too upset if I was.
The weather here is awful; dreary, cold , and rainy. A perfect day to stay inside and sleep, but despite my desire to, I havent slept since 8 or so this morning. And last night I had the worst time sleeping, I think I was worried about my drs appt today.
Well I am sitting here waiting for my hubby to get home and hoping it’s soon. The days seem so long without him, and tomorow night he wont be comign home, he’ll be heading to the Pentagon to hand out food to the workers there. So I know the next two days will drag on for me and I hope to get a good nights sleep tonight since I wont have help Friday night with the baby. For me the upcoming days, okay, weeks hold no plans for me, just the usual daily routine of caring for our little angel. I hope to find something to delve myself into soon…but it’s hard having to take Caleb with me everywhere. But hopefully I can find something Caleb friendly to do.
