well, whew! Ultrasound looks good. Says easy child is almost 9 weeks along, single baby, looks fine. STRONG heartbeat, we got to hear it today, even tho she is not quite 9 weeks.
easy child has lost almost 30 pounds in less than 3 weeks, and she was not big to start with at all......BUT she is now only having vomiting in morning, and less nausea thru the day. She is much more animated, fels much better, looks very very much better. Yes, she got to see Dr Z today and will see Dr Z again in 2 weeks.....and was released back to work for Sunday coming up.
YAY!
BUT the weridness of them NOT looking at chart continues, the nurse was saying PCs weight is "nice" and I said um, maybe YOU think so but it is DOWN 30 pounds in less than 3 weeks, I do not find THAT all so "nice" Then she told easy child "oh, well you need to eat" and I said well, she does, but it comes right back out, she has been in and out of hospital becuz of it and nurse said "Oh" Then Dr Z thought since the ultrasound was only yesterday, the report would not be there, but I said well maybe it is, and it was. <sigh>
While we were in dr office, wicnurse called, and now SHE is REALLY ticking me off beyond belief. SHe left a voicemail saying she was coming to do home visit NOW.......um, scuse me? I told her NO, first off it was NOT scheduled this week, I told her that and reconfirmed it in wic office yesterday, easy child was far too ill to cope with her baloney.....and then I cancelled the upcoming scheduled home visit for July 24. I was so mad at how she acted, how shebehaved and the errors in the appointment etc.....BUT I had said at the very first visit, no, no inside home visit BECUZ husband and difficult child both have strong serious stranger anxiety......cannot tolerate someone in the house here....and they both have strong agoraphobia and leaving the house is not an option, and husband is not physically well enough to ship him out. Well at first wic appointment, they had said OK..they would just meet easy child in yard....and then they said it would be July 24, but then they wrote on paperwork June 24, and then this nurse called Mon and said it was THIS week.....
Forget it. I do not like this nurses methods, her bullyishness, her meanness and her demanding ways. So, I told easy child I am prolly gonna blow it, and maybe she will lose WIC..but I am gonna tell them to forget it..this is MY home, my house...my family. I can provide anything for easy child that she might get from WIC. I can buy milk, eggs, cereal, juice. I am a nurse. I had 3 kids and breastfed all 3 a full year.....BUT I do wonder-----they are so concerned with confidentiality, but....they are gonna forecefully against my desire, push into our home? What if easy child did not want to tell us she was preg? How would easy child explain to us this nurse being in our home? Yes, husband knows about the baby.he is ok with it.......BUT haveing a stranger in our home will disrupt him, destabilize him, and I just do not feel like haveing the extra work of soothing his ruffled feathers from a home visit from a nosey nurse. Nothing here has threatened anyone or anything. No accusations have been made about us, no apparent obvious risks here....my kids are mostly fine. They have plenty to eat, they are clean and well groomed and nicely dressed. They for sure get plenty of medical attention. No police activity is occureing.....things are calm enough, and I wish to keep them that way. so, nope, I do not want wics visiting nurse here. easy child might be only 18, but.....I am NOT. Phooey.
But yes, the good news is that easy child does seem to be leveling off and holding her own, now, and she is going back to work, too. ANd the baby appears to be just fine. WHEW and YAY!
