we were at the docs yesterday.... its been a while since we last saw Dr Theo.... yup, the nice doctor who helped bring junior into our lives.... why were we in his office? well.... it was last monday when i was happily watching tv, and junior was staggering around like a drunken sailor when THE WIFE walked up behind me and ask " do you want to see something?"... yup, its the pee stick again... and this pee stick have a cross on it... ive always wondered why they place pregnancy kits next to condoms at the pharmacy, i guess its their way of telling us, if you dont want to use this, you will need this.... hmmmmmm... actually, we were aiming for number two, its just that like junior, i didnt expect that we would be so effective... we havent really made up our mind until edbert (me new nephew)came along, we decided that junior should be bullying his younger sibling and not his cousins....
we were at the docs at 10.30 for an 11 am appointment, and as we are not newbies anymore, THE WIFE drank plenty of water before coming to the docs.... junior was staggering around the waiting room and pointing at everything, i was trying to read the papers, THE WIFE was feeling the effects of a full bladder..... it wasnt long before her name was called and we were in the docs office....
doc: hello... you look familiar..
THE WIFE: yah, you helped delivered him 14 months ago...
doc: wow, so big already, can he walk already?
THE WIFE: yah a bit, who does he looks like now?
doc: hmmm..... he looks like the father, but only the nose and mouth part.... so are you pregnant again?
THE WIFE: yah... we did a test at home last monday, another one the next day and the gp confirmed it yesterday.... i have been having morning sickness
doc:okay, we will take your blood pressure and then a scan....
me:wow, you still keep our records?
doc: yah, we keep all records for at least 21 years, just in case someone wants to sue us when he turns 21 and cant be the prime minster or something......
me:hmmm....
doc: lets look at the scan now... it looks pretty small... cant really see anything... you will have to come back next week to be sure if theres really anything there..... but the fact that you are having morning sickness, thats a good sign...
doc: you come back next week and we see again.... are you breast feeding?
THE WIFE: yah...
doc: wow... its time to stop then... have plenty of fruits, remember no pineapple, no raw stuffs, i will give you some pills, take them regularly, have plenty of rest and we will see you next week....
THE WIFE:okay...
the whole doc and pills stuffs set me back by $135... not too bad considering that the last time we were here for the same thing, it was $120 and that was two years ago...
