Out of the Weeds! (And I opted out of the Vajazzle!)

Great news to share folks!  Saw my OBGYN today for my 3 month check up and the blood clot is almost completely gone.  My doctor said it won't cause me anymore issues and hopefully the rest of the pregnancy will be smooth sailing!  Baby looks great - strong heartbeat and good growth.  Honestly, I was surprised.  I guess I prepared for bad news.  I was ready to be told that the clot had grown and the baby was suffering due to the clot.  I suppose I thought it would be easier to hear bad news if I had prepared for it.  So, obviously, I am delighted and ready to get excited about this November bean!

This evening when I got home from my appointment, Liam asked me how it went.  And this is what I said," Well, as it turns out, I haven't been eating too much.  There's a baby in my tummy." (Which was a little bit of a lie because I have been eating a lot!) But he was thrilled and asked when the baby would come out.  And then he said that he would always love Marlo more, which I thought was precious.

Also, funny story to share. So when I was at my OBGYN's office last month, my doctor complimented me on the color of polish on my toes - a pink pastel.  Let me add in here that my OBGYN is a gay man so it didn't surprise me when he told me that pastels were the "in" color at all the nail salons.  Every gay man I've known has always taken beautiful care of his nails so I'm sure my OBGYN frequents the nail salon. 

I must say I was taken aback that he noticed my nails though. I suppose my feet were up the stirrups at eye's level from his chair, but still - can you imagine what details the man notices?!!  I mean, I do my best to make sure that I'm presentable you know, down there, before I go for an exam.  Sorry, if this is too much info!  I mean, I shower, like when you go to the dentist, you brush your teeth before you go.  You don't show up with a bunch of parsley in between your teeth.  I told one of my neighbor friends that if my OGGYN pays attention to my toes, I better be getting waxed before my next visit.  She suggested that I get a Vajazzle.  Please Google if you have not had the pleasure of learning about this.  Pretty hilarious. 

But for my appointment today, I opted out of the Vajazzle.  I did, though, get a pedi before because I could not show up with the same polish color!  Surely a faux pas!
