Hello again! Happy Leap Year. It just hit me that this Sunday is Leap Day. Does anyone make a big deal of this day and what do you do? Do you think we should make this a fun day? After all, it is the only day that comes around once every 4 years. We don't do anything but I'm considering doing something. Any ideas?
Anyway, things are going well for us! I suppose so anyway. I got the results of Jeff's SA today. Things look good except they all seem a little on the low side. Especially his morphology and motility. Can someone out there help me read these results? I know they're supposed to go to my OB but who knows how soon he'll get back to me. I suppose I do have a doc apt in about 2 weeks and I can talk to him about it then but in the mean time, I'd like to know! I'll post the numbers on my ttm board.
Nothing new going on with the house. We get to see it this weekend and I'm assuming signing the papers for an offer as well. It's all painted and the electrician was out to double check stuff so it's coming right along. I just need to get all of our loan stuff situated and get the money for a good faith deposit! It should be soon!
Since I have my doc apt in a few weeks, I've been trying to get my medical records sent to me. Did you know that my current OB charges $10 to get it and 10 cents a page! I can understand the 10 cents a page I suppose but $10 dollars just to have them sent to me?! They are my files, I don't think I should have to pay for them. But everyone here says that you have to pay for them because they have to go through and doctor them up before they'll send them to you. So they have to take out all the doctor's personal notes about you. Frankly that's the most interesting part, I think! I'd love to know what my doctors think of me. Especially since I put my health and sometimes my life in their hands. It would be nice to know that they care a little about my welfare, you know?
It looks like spring is starting here. It's very warm (the high tomorrow is supposed to be in the 60s!) and the trees are starting to bud. I always have a hard time with spring because I always see everything with their little babies walking around and it hurts. Sigh...one day I'll hopefully have a baby.
I've been enjoying my monitor a lot. Thanks for the comments I got about it on my ttm. I've heard good things about them so I figure it can't hurt. I'm excited to see it change to high and then to a peak day. :) But that probably won't happen until late next week.
~Always, Cat
