I must have gotten a combined 15 reminder emails, texts and phone calls in the past week to remind us of our doctor's appointment that was for today. As if I could possibly forget. Pregnant people obsessively countdown days and weeks.
I have already passed the 12 week mark of pregnancy, a time when most people would have announced their delightful news to the world. We, however, decided that we would wait a few extra days until after this appointment, just to be on the safe side, before sharing.
Today, when I got a phone call from an odd number and then a voicemail on my cell phone while at work, I feared the worst and sadly was correct in my assumption. My doctor's office calling to cancel on me because my doctor is sick.
NOOOOOOOOOO! Don't they realize we are tired of waiting? That we are dying to share the news with everyone?!? That Mason already took off a half day at work to attend this appointment?! That every. single. day. we have to wait is excruciating!!!
I called the doctor's office back to try to get an appointment with another doctor for today, but no such luck. We will now have to wait until Thursday afternoon and it won't even be with my doctor. Fabulous. So I guess we wait....
Another 48 hours until Baby G's world debut.... we hope.
