Dr's Appointment

We had a dr's appt today with our regular dr, who is actually a midwife. Didn't really find out too much. I have to go back there on the 31st to have my routine glucose test which will tell if I have gestational diabetes. They faxed all of my medical records to the hospital in St Louis, which is where we have decided to deliver the baby. I was told that soon after they receive my records in STL they will be calling us to set up an appt up there.

We also talked to the office manager at OBGYN, which is where I have my regular appts. They adjusted our bill since we won't be delivering here. Our midwife told them to charge me for my very first prenatal visit, the ultrasound, and any labs I have done, but to waive the fees for all other visits. She said the regular visits are like $98 a piece. So after ins kicks in, we should end up owing less than $100. That is a huge relief to us, and God's hand was at work in that, we know.

When we go to STL the first time, Jeremy is going to be able to go with me, but at the next appt, he may have a different job (hopefully) and not be available to go, so I'll be in search of a traveling buddy. Anybody interested?

The PayPal link is up and running, so if you want to make a donation to the account set up for Damon you are now able to do that from this site. I think there is a small charge for doing so, but if you live out of area, it would be the equivalent to paying for a stamp.

Talk to everyone soon.
