With so many people getting in sick…
With so many people getting in sick in my life since the new year we spent at least 15 minutes of the appointment talking about stress management. It is amazing how much things can change within a few weeks that are beyond our control yet need to be managed in order to stay healthy for ourselves and our unborn child.
Once that was discussed we talked about the GBS (group B strep). A self-swabbed test they do for mom and baby. Since I couldn’t think straight they left it for me to decide the next visit.
As usual from there was blood pressure, baby position, heartbeat and measurements. Appointments really are quite quick these days unless you have any major concerns like stress, then they certainly are willing to give you the extra time.
