Follow-Up Appointment

Last week I got a call back from the OB's office saying that they will not see me for the post OP because they will not get paid for it. After going back and forth with them I just said "stuff it" (not in so many words though). Even though my OB said to see him when the procedure was done, they still refused to honor my appointment.
I still needed to make sure that my incision was healing well, and that all was well, and there was no way I was going back to Gainesville just for a 5 minute appointment, so I made an appointment with my PCP.

Poor fellow, he knows nothing about TAC's so all he could do was look at the incision and say "its healing well!". I had no ultrasound because the tech had no clue what to look for, where to look, and so on. So here I still sit with no idea of what the TAC looks like inside me, where it is placed, how high, get a cervical length check, nothing. I sill have not received the transcript of the procedure nor the pics (and the Dr. is on vacation), so I am ALMOST tempted to call one of those independent facilities that do ultrasounds and have them see me, but with my luck, they probably have no idea what to look for either!
Thanks to all of you who still check up on me though. I am doing great! We are still not TTCing, but will meet with the MFM and OB sometime over the summer to come up with a plan for when we do start trying. I want to make sure that I am getting the best possible care during the next pregnancy and that every facet is covered and a plan in place.

In other exciting news ----------------------------8 more days of school left! Wheeeeeeeeee! I am excited to be able to sleep in (just a little) deep clean our house, organize the closets, shred, file, store, the whole nine yards. What an exciting summer it will be. :-)
And just because some of you asked, no my honey did not find a job yet. The dream job that he had applied for, he called and asked about the status of his application, and they let him know that right now there is a freeze on hiring but as soon as it is lifted, he will be getting a call for an interview.
I just know that call is coming soon. He had a dream Tuesday night and the Bible does state that in the last days....."young men shall dream dreams and see visions". I won't go into detail about the dream but when he was describing the dream, all I kept saying was "wait your turn". God is amazing. He is truly preparing us for something. I may get frustrated with him , but God is still up to something, and I cannot wait to see it come to fruition. He also sent confirmation through someone else. He went t to another church to see a visiting pastor, and the pastor sought him out after the service. The pastor said that there are 3 things he has been praying about, and she wanted him to know that they are about to come to pass. Now, he has never told anyone about these three specific things he has been praying about (not even me!), but for this perfect stranger to approach him and encourage him about these three things can only be confirmation for me. The three things? A healthy live baby :-), a great job, and financial security. I cannot wait to see what God has in store for us!>

Continue to keep us both in prayer,
Awaiting my expected end.
