Interesting appointment!

I had a check up this morning starting with my glucose test! I drank my yummy drink and then left to drop off the kids at my moms and off to my appointment. I got there pretty early just to make sure I got there on time. I didn't want to drink that stuff again! I felt really good until the lady starting taking my blood. I normally don't have any problems when I get my blood drawn but it felt like she was draining it right from my face. I felt fine....just a little light headed. They put me in a room right away and I was thought I was going to get out of there really quick! Nope! I sat in there for 25 minutes! I just took advantage and laid down and tried to feel better. I heard him talking outside and it sounded like he was trying to get a lady in to the hospital that had a big mass in her breast! That is more important. I will wait. When he finally came in, I told him that my pain 'down there' was worse. I keep telling people it's my pelvis but recently it feels more like where my episiotomies are. I know that it's too early for his head to be down there but that is what it feels like. That his head is pressing as hard as it can against that. I also told him that I'm having tons of braxton hicks contractions especially when I'm massaging. It's like I am massaging with a rock in my belly! He decided to check me which I wasn't prepared for but glad he did! He said I have a HUGE varicose vein right there that looks all pink and sore. Isn't that lovely!! I figured there isn't anything he can do about it but at least I know it's not my imagination or that I'm just a bigger wimp than others. He had told me at my last appointment that it just hurts more with every pregnancy and I guess mine hurts ALOT more! Fortunately he can do something for it after I deliver. He also checked my dilation to make sure the braxtons aren't doing much. I am already at a fingertip and soft!! That's not much but it seems like it for only being 27 weeks! My doc doesn't seem to be worried about it though so hopefully it just means I will go quick when the time comes:) He said he would be worried if it was my first but not with my third. I am also scheduled for another ultrasound on my next appointment to check the cyst on my placenta to make sure it hasn't grown. So I get to see my little man again! Yay! Anyway, that's about it! I guess I now know why I'm so miserable and waddling after I go to work. Hmm.....is it time to quit??? :-)
