I don't have syphilis, gonorrhea, HIV, Hep C, whatever-else-they-were-testing-for. I do have antibodies for Rubella and Chickenpox. All is as it should be.
Before we entered the TTC stage I conscientiously had myself tested for all the things you're meant to be tested for pre-TTC so I knew I was alright for (having) Rubella antibodies and (not having) gonorrhea but I was never checked out for HIV and gee, too bad if I did have it at this stage.
Interestingly enough no-one has done a pregnancy test yet...
My breasts were fondled and pronounced to be 'fine'. I've had better reviews but I'm not dismayed. Note to all doctors - if you work in an air conditioned office run your hands under some warm water first. The girls were a little startled.
She then said she would have a feel of my 'belly' and prodded my stomach for a bit. The last time she did that she said she was going to feel my 'uterus'. Apparently we're not using our big words any more. I'm being infantilized already and I'm not even showing yet!
Every-thing is now signed and sealed and sent off to the birth center. One thing I can cross off my to-do list.
