Eat Crackers!!!

The last few days/weeks I have been feeling nauseous. First it started when I was getting into bed. I thought it was because I was laying down where as I was sitting up all day long. But the last few days I feel been getting the official morning time nausea. I wake up having to pee super bad but not wanting to get out of bed and in addition I feel sick so I'm scared if I do get out of bed I'm not going to make it to pee or vomit. Luckily, I've managed to not throw up and as soon as I sit down in the dining room chair I'm fine. I need to get ahold of some crackers since I've been told by several people that crackers are something to keep in your nightstand. I haven't been able to have the tea before getting out of bed since Kevin isn't here to make it but I do have tea 1st thing in the morning when I make it to the kitchen. Also I've been very picky about who my obgyn is. Kevin's cousin had been telling me about her friend that was an obgyn. He was said to be very good. However, I wasn't sure I wanted a guy. After reading reviews on the lady that I had been referred to by my doctor's office. I began to freak about everything. I'm used to my doctor in Springfield who had bedside manner and even remembered who I was dating every time I saw her (once a year). Now to go to a woman who would be performing uncomfortable procedures on me and deliver my 1st child with absolutely no bedside manner and treat me like a business customer. I wasn't sure this lady was for me. So I decided to give this guy that Melissa had recommended a shot. I made the call to my doctor's office to make the referral, they told me he took my insurance but not the insurance plan I have. So I continued to research for a doctor I could live with that took my insurance. I found another doctor and called my doctor's office but the referral lady had left so I had to leave a detailed message with the front desk secretary who ended up criticizing me for not wanting to be referred to the 1st lady I was referred to. She kept telling me what a great doctor she was and asking why I didn't want to see her. I finally was able to shut her up and to take my message. The referral lady was very nice and understanding unlike the front desk lady. She called me back today to let me know the doctor I asked about this time had the same story. She took my insurance but not my plan. Sounds weird but in the military you get Tricare insurance. You can get standard or prime. I have prime but most of these doctors took standard. Yes I agree its stupid that they couldn't take both but that's part of being in a military family and having gov't insurance. Luckily the referral lady and I came across a doctor that is right across the street from the hospital and has been in practice for 22 yrs. She called the office to make sure she was taking new patients and called me back. The doctor was taking new patients and the referral lady even scheduled an appt for me!!! How nice right? Even better she asked the secretary there if the doctor had bedside manner and the secretary said she had excellent bedside manner and that all of her patients love her!!! Needless to say I feel much better and oh my appt is scheduled for this Friday at 9:30am. So I will get to meet this lady very soon. I'm excited and ready to do this. I have a good feeling about this doctor. Now to mention I shaved my legs today so I don't have to rush to defuzz myself before I go in Friday morning. lol I can take a hot shower Thursday night and I'll be good to go Friday morning!!!
