Blood Draw

Everyone was very sweet and calm with me. Im really bad at getting my blood drawn, i often get nauseous and possibly pass out. The girl who drew my blood did it painlessly and afterwards gave me a water and ice pack when i started to feel very ill. When they checked to see how dilated i am she did it quickly and afterwards gave let me lay until i felt better, i definitely got nauseous afterwards. That is on me though, ive been very queezy about my appointments and being pregnant.

OB Care

My first appointment with Heather was on Monday Nov 11th right after my second miscarriage the first words out of her mouth were “I’m not sure why they made this appointment” I specifically requested the appointment to speak with a doctor being that this was my second miscarriage. I wasn’t necessarily looking for answers but looking for a solution on how to move forward. She didn’t take the time to answer questions or explain anything. I understood nothing could be done at that time but I wanted to talk about future visits blood work etc. She didn’t take the time to explain to me what blood work would look for and that it would be another month before we could do bloodwork as my levels needed to regulate after being pregnant and miscarrying. She honestly made me feel like I was a burden and like she didn’t want to help. My second appointment with Heather on Nov 21 lasted all of 3 minutes. I was under the impression we would do blood work and maybe start towards a solution. However if it were explained in my first visit I would have known that wouldn’t be the case as we needed to wait for my body to regulate. When you’re experiencing a miscarriage and trying to grow your family a week feels like months I wish she would have prepared me more for what to expect moving forward. Both times she was very dismissive. I tried to give her grace after the first visit but her attitude was still the same the second time around. I requested my next visit to be with a different provider. I do want to say I love a women’s view and have never felt this way with any of the other providers I have seen. My first miscarriage I had an appointment with Natalie Broadway and she was amazing she was empathetic and explained a lot to me and made me feel like I mattered.
