How pissed should I be?

So I’m high risk because baby has lots of genetic problems. Which puts me at higher risk for things like preeclampsia and stuff.

I’m seeing a MFM dr once a week, but also having regular weekly visits with my OB/midwife. It took them 18 days to look at the results of my glucose test and to tell me I had failed.

Now... the results were posted the day after I took the test, and were even available for me to see online. Why did it take them two and a half weeks to tell me I need to do the three hour!!??

I went in yesterday after they had called me the night before to finally tell me I’d failed the first one. Got to the hospitals, and OB still hadn’t put through the order for me to take it.

Thankfully the women checking me in was able to get me signed up and I was able to take the second test. But I feel like they’re treating this all like a joke. I would have expected them to treat even healthy pregnancies with more diligence! And certainly not to leave a high risk patient waiting so long, and then not even order the second test.

If not for my health, then at least to cover their butts to not get sued! If something happens to me or baby because I do have undiagnosed gestational diabetes, that doesn’t exactly reflect well on them... I’m just so frustrated. 😖😫
