My Pregnancy… and the family doctor.
So far into this it has been the most difficult pregnancy I’ve had out of the three. My pelvis is constantly in pain and the doc says that it’s normal. I’m a skeptic on the normality of it considering I didn’t hurt like this with the first two. But hey I’m not a doctor, right? My protest is that I know my body better than him so we’re currently at a stand still. LOL
The baby’s very active now and is already taking after me by aggravating the hell out of his father. Poor guy. Every time he tries to feel the baby kick he stops kicking. It just cracks me up! Daddy doesn’t find it as amusing as I do however.
At 28 weeks I look similar to a beached whale… Even my doc says I’m putting on weight to fast and in his words “will be as big as a house” by the time I deliver. Way to cheer me up there big guy! But seriously, I love my doctor! He’s honest and to the point. He’s not one to sugar coat and is always rather blunt with me. I also love the fact that he’s a family doctor and in turn sees my whole family. I’ve never had a family doc before and the originally the idea that the same doctor was going to treat me as well as my children was a little disconcerting. I have come to LOVE the fact that he treats my entire family and knows my family history. It’s always an awesome feeling when he remembers me and the kids. I never feel like just another patient. Being use to having specialty doctors made things a little odd at first, but I know now why they call them “Family” doctors! I feel like family when I go in there. What an awesome feeling to have!

Too cute! And you do not look like a beached whale! Sheesh!
And too true about the family doctor. Having a family doctor that knows all about you and all of your kids is a great thing.

I agree. There is nothing quite as special as having your own personal Dr. Welby. The specialty doc is highly over rated, not to mention, highly over priced. LOL
Honesty is very important in having a god family doctor that you can trust, even if he has a bad sense of humor.
