Dr. Appointment Nigtmare!

I just got home from my 38 week appointment.As I mentioned my actual Dr. is on vacation until Monday so therefore I seen another Dr. Let's just say it was a nightmare on elm street! The so called Dr. had NO CLUE what he was doing nor did he care about me enough to listen to my concerns. He of course starts out by asking me how I feel, I proceed to tell him that I am in a great deal of pain and about the contractions that I have been having, does he care? NO. So finally he attempts to listen for my little angels heart beat. Can he find it? NO. Why you ask? Because he had no clue what he was doing, he was surely acting like he knew though, (while listening to my OWN heart beat on the monitor) He says "oh it sounds good!" HE DIDN'T EVEN CHECK HER HEART, HE WAS LISTENING TO MINE! At this point I am already angry but it gets worse. After dipping my urine, he comes back in and tells me that I have sugar in my urine but HE is not worried about it. Once again, I bite my tongue. Then he hands me my check out form and says that he will see me next week. So, you would assume I'm happy that I can leave, right? NO, because he didn't even bother to do a cervical exam to see if I was dilated. So I ask him, Are you not going to check me? He says, "No, there is no need to, it would just be for fun". FOR FUN??? Yes, this wonderful (note the sarcasm) so called Dr. did not do a cervical exam on a 38 week pregnant girl who has been in pain for a week! I finally grabbed the paper from his hand and left. Now I have to wait until Tuesday to see my REAL Dr.

I had to vent a little and get it out of my system! Hope you enjoyed my ranting, it makes me feel better :)
