So many Doctor appointments

I am so sick of going to the doctor. No need to worry, there isn't anything wrong just so many check-ups. Honestly, we were playing life dangerously this year by not having any medical insurance while Eric was an intern. At first I thought that it would be just a few months but when they kept extending Eric's internship that prolonged us getting insurance through his job. Starting in October we were finally covered. So I figured that it was time to get caught up on a few things. It all started with my first appt. to the lovely girl doctor since it had been 2 years since my last check-up and I was also having a little problem with my birth control. (I will spare you the details) Oh, and then my tests came back "insufficient data" so I get to go back next Monday for another invasive woman exam. (yea for me!!)

It had been a year since the kids had a well check so yesterday we took both kids to the doctor. They are both growing well and are healthy. However, I am a little (or a lot) behind on Kaylee's immunizations so we will need to go back each month for the next 2 or 3 months to get her caught up.

The other thing on my checklist was that I needed to go to the dentist. It had been 3 years since I last went and I was sure I needed some work done. I wanted to go before I got pregnant again because I want any drugs necessary to make me comfortable. :) After going to one dentist and getting a cleaning, I was pretty upset to learn that I needed a lot of work to do and it was going to cost more that what we can handle (mainly on one or two teeth). I was so overwhelmed so Eric suggested I get a second opinion. I reluctantly agreed to see another dentist. So this morning I went into a second dentist. Basically, this dentist was a little more laid back and told me what needed to be done now and what could wait (that saved our pocket books). So now I have a few more dentist appointments to go to for the next month or two.

Lots of fun over here. :) It will be nice when we are all caught up and don't need to go the doctor for a while. I know they are all just trying to help but the waiting and getting babysitters is tough.
