I also found out I have high blood pressure now I guess. No more salty foods. Yay?
This morning was kind of terrible. I didn't sleep much because I was nervous about the test. I drank some orange juice in the morning so that I'd have enough fluids when I got to the doctor. As soon as I got in the car though, I started to feel my stupid morning sickness crap that I always get in the morning. I had to pull off at the CVS parking lot to throw up. My mouth tasted terribly of orange juice and acid and my throat burned for the next half hour.
It turned out the doctor's office had called the house yesterday about my appointment, and my mom had picked up the phone. She didn't know about my appointment, and the office didn't specify that the appointment was mine, so she cancelled it, unbeknownst to me. I wondered why I had to wait a freaking hour at the doctor's office before they would see me... Turns out I didn't have an appointment at all.
They also will be running some blood tests for me as an additional test to make sure I'm not pregnant. I now worry that they'll end up calling my parents about the test. I had to call the office and ask them which phone number they had on file for me; they had the house number, so I changed it to my cell number, but it's difficult to be sure they'll do it right. I don't really trust them with my privacy, frankly. I don't know what else to do though. I need to have the tests done, and I'll find out the results, one way or another... But first I have to wait some more. The results should be done in a week or less. Who knows.
As I sat in the doctor's office contemplating hypothetical situations depending on what the test results were, the one thing that has kept me from freaking out too much is Kevin. It still amazes me sometimes how close I have grown to him. He is good to me, and he is good for me. Although we have our fights and differences of opinion sometimes, in the big scheme of things, I feel like I can be confident that he will be there for me if I need him. I am so incredibly grateful to him. I am grateful to have a mate I can talk to about pretty much everything. Even though this whole pregnancy thing has been scary for both of us, he is not afraid to be there for me. He makes me feel like I'm not alone. There is no one else in the world that I would want more to spend the rest of my life with.
