Being 75 degrees out and 85% humidity before 8am while on diuretics and almost 30 weeks pregnant is sending me .

[theglowstickchronicles]

Had two scripts written the same day. One has been ready for 10 days, I’ve been waiting for the other one to pick them up at the same time and to try to get them on the same schedule as other prescriptions. They didn’t fill it. Had to go first to pick up and then to “consultation” because it was on hold. Waited in a second line and they didn’t even ask me questions or anything, just said it would be ready in 10.

Like why.

Can any of my OB friends unofficially weigh in on my 3 hr glucose results??

Fasting: 79

1 hr: 175

2 hr: 158

3 hr: 134

I think I passed but the 2 hr was above by 3 points so I’m not 100% sure…

[theglowstickchronicles]

Failed my 1 hr glucose test so have to go do the 3 hr one tomorrow.

They forgot to actually put the order into epic so I’ve been sitting in the lab for 35 minutes waiting for the on call resident to call the lab back to actually order it. I’m so thirsty I could cry.

Do you ever just like… want a liter of IV fluids??? I just think it would feel so amazing. Especially combined with a nap.

[theglowstickchronicles]

I took a vacation day so I could do an early morning PVT session and then do acupuncture in the afternoon and it has now turned into near non-stop Things all day and I am so sad that it probably won’t involve a longass nap.

Chat, why am I getting an orientee after only 10 months in the clinic?

OB friends I need your more insane advice for how to avoid pushing for >4 hours so I’m not forced into a c section under general anesthesia. Like what prep can I start NOW.
