Yesterday, I had a doctor's appointment. Remember last week I had been nervous but needed some medication. My therapist, whom I will refer to as J, recommended me to Dr. F. She said she was great and easy to talk to. J also reassured me that I wouldn't have to get on the scale. She was right.
We got there and they did the standard things like height, temperature, blood pressure, and talked with the nurse. Then Dr. F came in. She was awesome. She was very easy to talk to and we dialogued about meds that are safe for pregnancy, etc. She put me on an antidepressant and an antihistamine to help me sleep again.
Anyhow, because I was so tough and brave (haha) Chris took me shopping. I found some clothes and a few other things. It was pretty awesome. But of course, when we passed the baby section in the store, my heart yearned and it hurt. I felt myself go numb for a minute and we just had to continue on. However, toward the end of our shopping, I did go back into that section. It still hurts...it's still painful but I trust that we will have more babies and also I have friends/family members having babies and we want to be able to celebrate in their joy because life is always joyful.
So I survived and I have some medicinal help. It'll take a couple of weeks to take effect and my hope is that it is short term but I will take it.
