7:30 appointment

From now on I am going to make super sure and ask AM or PM when they give me an appointment time. I almost couldn´t sleep last night because I was so excited. Set the alarm for 6:20. Even straightened my hair for the new doc. Ya know, since he´s gonna be so concerned with my hair and not my vadge... Did I mention it is a MAN doctor? That´s a first for me! So yeah, we get there and the office is CLOSED. It doesn´t open until 8:00... So I get pissed at the recepcionist first. And we wait a little longer (Franco has to be at work at 8) and it dawns on me (insert lightbulb here) Maybe it´s 7:30PM since they take a 4 hour lunch break/siesta from 5-9. Seriously. Mexican time is SO throwed off. They go to work late, eat lunch late, then leave work late. No thanks. Oh and if ANY Mexican tells you ¨al ratito¨ (in a little bit) that can range anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 days, FYI. So now I have to have butterflies and be excited all day, blah! Mom even texted at 9:00 and asks yay or nay? She got a CALL ME in response. On a positive note, I have my parents blessings. I think they are happy and are ready to be grandparents. Yay for babies! She only bought an antique crib like 3 years ago, she´s been ready : )

Subject change: swine flu. At first I was totally against the vaccination as they haven´t done very much testing on it. Then I marinate on it a little longer and have a change of mind. They wouldn´t have APPROVED the thing if they didn´t think it was safe. And the flip side is much worse than getting the actual shot. Living in Mexico where sanitation isn´t one of the top priorities, I think I need it more than alot of other folks might. Mom doesn´t even want me to get on a plane next month to come home because the virus can travel 10 rows in front AND behind you in a plane. Uyyy. Plus I´ve been doing some reading and asked around what other pregnant women´s doctors said and they are all for it. PLUS technology and medical studies/practices have come ALONG way since that whole deal in the 70´s where everybody ended up paralyzed who got the injection. I´m doing it and I don´t care what you think. And even though I have the worst luck in the Americas, I am not gonna let that be a factor in this pregnancy either. I am gonna have this baby until somebody who is highly trained tells me otherwise!

And I tested again on Sunday morning. I honestly don´t think Franco believed it or was able to get too excited until I did either. He said this one looks alot more ¨chido¨ : ))
