first doctors visit and my first uti
Before I headed out to my doctor’s appointment, I had lunch with Nicole and her almost-three-month-old, Hailey. We enjoyed a nice lunch at the Brick Oven.
I complained about it stinging when my bladder emptied and we decided I should mention it to the doctor, which I did. Turns out, I have a urinary tract infection. I feel slightly better today after getting the medication, but now when I go, there’s blood. And that scares me. I hate seeing blood when I wipe.
The actual doctors appointment went relatively well. I had a pap smear, blood drawn, and received a flu shot. They also gave us a goodie bag with two magazines and some formula and seven different samples of prenatal vitamins and two diapers! Our first two diapers! All in all, it took two hours out of my day, but it was well worth it. There was no sonogram, no looking for a heartbeat, no extra pregnancy tests… though the flu shot nearly made me pass out.
Back to drinking lots of water!
