hopefully one of the last ones! I do like my new doctor, and even her receptionist seems nice, so she must have just been having one bitch of a day when I called that first time. Dr Mills wrote me a note so I can finally activate my damn EI sick leave claim, which is good. The woman at the HRDC office actually recognised my name when I went in to drop off my paperwork today, which is kind of funny. They had just gotten my file from Moncton, because they thought I was continuing my claim from last summer. No, that expires in June, thanks. So she's got it all straightened out for me, they have all the paperwork they need, and hopefully I can start getting my maternity pittance soon.
The appointment was uneventful, as usual. A little quicker than last time, but still an hour by the time I got in and out. My giant belly is measuring 39.5 (weeks, I assume), which is "generous", by Dr. Mills's description. She's too polite to say effin 'uge. She said everything looks and sounds good though, and the baby still seems to be head down, which is very good, and we'll find out for sure tomorrow at my ultrasound. I've gained a total of 21lbs, which doesn't seem like very much, but she said it's normal. I've actually gone down a pound from last week, which is normal at this stage. Should make it easier to get back to pre-preggo me though. Not that pre-preggo me was any great shakes, but it was decent.
