grrr... my doctors appointment today

everything's fine I guess, but I was so upset when I got there. For some reason they didn't put it in their records that I miscarried and they were all talking to me like I was pregnant. Once i realized their mistake, I had to correct it and I hated having to do that. It really stung. They still had me all set up for the ultrasound and everything. Ugh. And then even after I corrected it, I could hear the doctor asking somebody how far along I was before coming in to see me. They had to remind her that i was no longer expecting. What the hell??? I talked to THEM when it all happened a few weeks ago. Why can't they keep that in their records so that I'm not forced to re-live it??? Chat Icon

I definitely was about to cry, but I'm so glad that I held it together. One of the receptionists was very encouraging though and very sweet. She also had a m/c in her past and healthy pregnancies afterwards. She was so sweet and saying that she'd see me back there very soon when I'm pregnant again. That helped.

But yeah... rough day kinda Chat Icon Glad it's over. I think this was the last of all the 'pregnancy' stuff. Time to move on. I can't wait until we're TTC again.

I actually had the same thing happen to me w the nurse when I went in for my follow-up. She was asking how far along? IT's like UGHHH. The staff should look in the charts before asking questions...save us the pain of having to share again.

I'm glad you are fine physically. You will be back there soon again with good news!!!!

Hopefully you will get AF soon and can start TTC again.

It is the only time we are excited to see AF!

Sorry to hear your appointment didn't go so well. It's not fun when there is lack of communication at the doctor's office. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: grrr... my doctors appointment today

yeah, at least I'm doing fine (physically) though. That's definitely important. She said that I didn't need another blood test or anything because my numbers were low enough last time, so that made me happy at least. I didn't want to keep doing that. Ugh.

This visit definitely gave me a peace of mind. I wanted to know that everything was ok, and apparently it is. I just wish there was better communication. Chat Icon That was pretty upsetting.

Re: grrr... my doctors appointment today

I'm so sorry this happened to you! Chat Icon .. The SAME thing happened to me too. The doctor came in and hugged me saying congrats ((she delivered my son)), and I burst out crying. I even had to tell the nurse right before the doctor came in, so I don't understand why the nurse couldn't have told her too.

They should triple check that they write that in the file so not to do that to us, but their just to dumb!

But I agree with the receptionist, you will be back there before you know it!!!

OMG! Something similar happened to me too! They called to remind me of an appointment I had for a checkup/sonogram. I had to call up the next day to schedule my D&C post-op, so I decided to do that and cancel my checkup/sonogram. The person who answered the phone was completely confused as to why I would want to cancel my checkup/sonogram. Even after she scheduled a D&C post-op for me.

What is with these offices? You would think we were the first people in history to have miscarried.

yes, I really do hope that this month flies by. I'm just so anxious for AF to come though. I want to know that my cycle is on time. I feel like it is, because it seemed that I was ovulating during the CD that I usually do, but I'm not positive. Sooooo just waiting on that right now (I think it's due on Monday, the 12th). For the first time ever I will be eagerly awaiting. lol.

Im kind of in the same boat right now. Im hoping my cycle is back to normal as well. If it is, I should get AF Sunday so Im hoping if I dont get it by Tuesday then I can safely test. Right now my biggest fear is AF wont come on time but I wont be pregnant and just left to wonder WTH is going on.Chat Icon

Ugh....I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. You would think that they would be sensitive to these situations, as they must happen pretty often.

How awful! Good for you for keeping it together! And the nurse is right, she will see you back there!

I have to go the Dr. tomorrow and I'm not looking forward to a situation like you experiencedChat Icon I don't know if I could handle it at this point.
