I fricking hate those scales!!! My doctor...UGH!!!!! I fricking hate those scales!!! My doctor's office has the exact same thing, a big digital scale right across from where everyone checks out, so every time I go to get weighed, everyone who is waiting to pay/make a new appointment can see my weight. I just always try to think, these people are strangers to me! Who cares what they think of my fat butt?? They won't remember me the moment I walk away.<br /><br />Regardless, it always sucks. And I hope your surgery won't make a difference... I can't see why it would. You are just as capable of being an awesome mom as before. <br /><br />Good luck, I'll be thinking about you. Hang in there. :-)Busted Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237839616697830224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3923391970801545914.post-11879108950291999852010-08-06T07:27:49.614-04:002010-08-06T07:27:49.614-04:00Hang in there today...I'm thinking about you! ...Hang in there today...I'm thinking about you!

I know EXACTLY what you mean about the anxiety before appointments- they always have to take my BP at the end of the appointment too. <br /><br />Keeping my fingers crossed that things go better than expected and you have the weekend to recover. <br /><br />Hugs!Melissa Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150534738341942742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3923391970801545914.post-74793717494342808722010-08-05T16:35:10.395-04:002010-08-05T16:35:10.395-04:00Thinking of you, Lisa.

My blood pressure goes through the roof every single time I'm in an exam room. It's insane.<br /><br />And I completely agree about the scale in the middle of the office. That's embarrassing for anyone to have to go through. Is there any dignity left in doctor's offices? I'd advise what Heather said: just shut your eyes. Don't even look at the number. The same goes for your blood pressure. <br /><br />Thinking of you, sweetie. If I lived any closer, I'd go with you and hold your hand! But we'll all be there in spirit. Just remember that.<br /><br />xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3923391970801545914.post-87070982269863409292010-08-05T14:12:00.911-04:002010-08-05T14:12:00.911-04:00Hugs to you.

I'm exactly the same - my blood pressure actually rises when I'm at the doctor - we call it "white coat fever" - so you're definitely not alone!<br /><br />As for that scale - ugh - whoever's "bright" (and I use the term loosely) idea it was to put it in the middle of the office deserves a kick.<br /><br />I will be thinking of you and sending positive thoughts that all will go well.<br /><br />Good luck at your fundraiser!Fertility Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16909012164684855077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3923391970801545914.post-69200275239208687242010-08-05T14:05:41.746-04:002010-08-05T14:05:41.746-04:00I hope everything goes well for you.

It is so unfair that some people can just have kids, and those of us who aren't genetically gifted that way, have to be approved by someone else to have a child. It sucks! Good luck on your fundraiser.

These are awful things you have to go through in order to get that baby of yours, but it will all be worth it.<br /><br />When you see that scale, just take a big breath, let it out slowly, and it will be ok. You don't even have to look at the number. <br /><br />Thinking of you, and sending you a huge hug!Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07524692943966582775noreply@blogger.com
