Bad Doctors appointment at 38 weeks
Today I had a doctor's appointment. I'm 38 weeks. My regular Dr wasn't in today so I seen a new Dr today(she brand new to the facility). So she comes in and automatically I feel a bad energy she looked at me very rude and all. The whole appointment I was judged by size I'm a small women I carry small as well. All my kids come out healthy weight. Im anemic so I do take iron tablets and I also deliver very fast. I have 5 children already. She says to me to take my iron seriously 5 times then tells me once I get a contraction head to hospital and take it seriously and she said that 5 times too and I really wanted to flip out(I get she is new but don't keep repeating yourself I said yes the first time and you keep saying it as if I'm laughing about it) I already wasn't feeling well. Then she goes to measure me oh you are so tiny that's not normal you need a sonogram immediately and take it seriously 😒. I had looked at her and told her I'm small not every baby is the same my last sonogram baby was great weight and as you see I'm gaining still. And I'm on my 6th pregnancy. My Dr knows me and knows I am small and I deliver very good weight children. She still sent me to do sonogram and before I did a stress test she comes in oh baby sound spectacular. And I go to sonogram my tech says baby is great weight and fluids are good and she's measuring great as well. You didn't need to come in today. I go home my actual doctor calls and tells me I didn't have to go to the sonogram if I didn't want too i may have measured smaller because my belly is dropping and baby is moving ibto the canal. I went because I didn't want them to look ate me funny or judge me as I was today. I did ask kindly not to see that lady again. I'm just tired of being judged for my size and then I feel bad and cry about it at home. But I know deep down I'm healthy and babygirl is healthy and that's what matters.

This was 37 weeks pregnant small but I felt great
