Emergency Room

The title is scary, but it ends well.

Kelly had some spotting yesterday night which worried us a little. The books we have seemed to agree that its a normal thing, but erring on the side of caution, she called Dr. Jackson. His answering service said he wasn't available but she was contacted by the on-call doctor, Dr. Story. Dr. Story is a bitch by the way and wasn't much help at all. She just said to call Dr. Jackson back today.

Kelly continued to have some spotting and tried to reach Dr. Jackson. Being the day before Thanksgiving, his office was closed today. But his answering service didn't take the call either. Now more than a little worried (especially going into a long weekend), we took a trip to the emergency room.

After a blood tests, urine tests, ultrasound and several hours of waiting, the doctor said everything was fine.

As a bonus, Kelly got to see the little hands and feet on the ultrasound. I didn't get to see them and we didn't get a printout, but we have an appointment with Dr. Jackson on Monday.

Moral: Better safe than sorry.
