I had my first appt this morning with a CNM.... I am planning a home birth, but i am taking advantage of my insurance. They ran all my bloodowrk, gave me a script for more progesterone, and prenatals.
The MW was really nice. I liked her. Told her we were thinking of home birth again, and she seemed OK. She set up an ultrasound for a few weeks away for dating, which will likely be the only US I will have. She wants me to come back a couple days after the US and see the DR. I have a very complicated history so she needs to have a doc sign my chart i guess. I figure I will see them then, and maybe in January, then I will pick up with my home birth MW in feb.
She was very reassuring and all. and supportive. Told me not to worry too much, and if i need to call for anything I can. That was nice. She wants to do a 1 hour glucose test soon, but i am not doing that. My blood sugars are fine... and i feel good before and after I eat.
somehow going to the dr made this more real. I am stilll filled with anxiety, but i am excited...
