Interview and the Dr's

Friday I had a Dr's appointment first thing in the morning. I went to the new office that is right by the hospital that I will deliver at. It is a REALLY nice office. The Dr I saw I have never seen before and they must have had another Dr join the practice because I could hear them talking outside of my room. "She gained 4 pounds in 2 weeks, its says here she hasn't gone in for her 3 hour glucose test." Then they come in and ask me if I had done my test. I explained that I was working full time and going to school so that's why I hadn't gone in. Why I didn't add that the other Dr said I could monitor myself at home I don't know.... The lady was really nice about it but said I should go in ASAP to do the test. I'm annoyed, but at the same time don't want to be putting Nadia at risk. I was under the impression that ladies with GD generally gain weight very quickly, even with my 4 pound jump in 2 weeks I still have only gained 16 pounds. I don't consider that a lot of weight. So, I went and bought a tester, I have been testing myself and will continue to for the next 2 weeks. If after a few days I seem high then I am going to go in, but if my numbers are normal like they had been I am just going to bring in my results and show it to them. They didn't check me for dilation, but they said the next time they will be doing my GBS test and they will check me then if I would like.

After my Dr's appointment I had a few hours to kill before my interview. I could've just gone home, but I really didn't feel like driving all the way back home then to the interview. I went and looked around Kirklands and Target, and kept myself from buying anything. I went on to my interview and it seemed to go well. The lady is much more organized and it is doing the same thing I was but handling 4 banks properties and expediting a lot of the "meaningless" tasks to someone else. That means I wouldn't have to go sit at a house and wait for the gas to be turned on, or drive to it just to see if someone is living there or not. I would be doing more of the important tasks, not to mention the pay is more. She was going to make a decision by Friday night, but decided her and her husband needed to talk it over. I got a call today from her saying that they narrowed it down to 3 people and would like for us to come in again for a second interview. So tomorrow at 11 I will be going back in to talk with her. Honestly, I am surprised that I am even still in the running LOL. There are a lot of other things that she offered and explained but I will leave all of that until later. Lets see what happens first!

Jacobs boss had heard that we are paying nearly $700 a month for health insurance and gave us this website for free health care in AZ. I had looked into this earlier, but I'm pretty sure we don't meet the income requirements. It also can take up to 20 days to be approved, so I'm not really sure if we are going to pursue it even though I would be a great relief to not have to pay $700. His boss also said that he is going to start giving Jacob jobs where he will make more commission because he doesn't want him to leave the company. I'm not sure he realizes that Jacob is making almost double at this company than the last, but hey, more money is always good! Jacob works very hard for them and they appreciate that, so its nice that they are showing it.

We had a laid back weekend, I got our hospital bag together and set up the pack-n-play in our room. Today we went to my parents and swam. They wanted to celebrate me passing my test so they made a nice dinner. Now we are home relaxing. I hope I can sleep tonight! Sleep is becoming more and more impossible with this big ole belly and getting up to pee every hour!
