The Start of a Long Medical Journey

     So we made an appt to see the pediatrician when she would be back in our town...  Upon seeing ZC she still felt confident that this was a case of nothing more than breastfed jaundice.  she made me feel like there really was no reason for this appt i had chose to make...  i failed to mention that the nurse had even sd on the phone that maybe we could just get him checked at his 2mos well check - i sd i definitely did not feel comfortable doing that.  so the dr sd that she would do a blood test just to make me happy !!!!!  okay ! "make me happy"....  so here i am with my 3 precious babes... we go over to get his blood drawn =  seems like a simple task, right ??


     well nope nothin easy about it.  the dr ordered loads of tests  - too many tests the lab tech sd as lil zc was too lil to spare as much blood would be necessary. so infront of me the already upset momma the technician & the dr went back & forth over the phone for a good 20 minutes !  my confidence level in this pediatrician was going down by each word i heard b/t the 2 of them !  thank goodness God blessed us with a knowledgeable lab tech - as she was the one who was telling the dr - he only weighs .... that means i can only draw ... amount of blood.


     so finally the sweet lab tech whom i know God put there to protect ZC took his precious blood & sent us on our way... sd that some of  the results would be back in bout an hour.... and others would take longer to be processed..  we'd only get a call  IF something wasn't right.
