I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but I feel like the world expects me to make my life revolve around my pregnancy. First my OB's office was amazed when I had to leave for an important meeting after having been there for an hour and a half. And then they were confused when I couldn't spend literally all day there for multiple appointments.

Now today I asked the GD educator if she had any suggestions for when my work day is too packed to test 2 hours after lunch (I explained on Monday I have about 45 minutes to eat before I'm booked all day). Her response? She implied I was putting my baby in danger and to make testing a priority. Nothing helpful like testing at an alternate time listed on her sheet (there were 10 times listed, with 4 specific ones circled) or testing at the end of my 45 minute eating window.

I was practically crying after I read her email :(. I would love to have a life of leisure where I can spend all day long concentrating on being pregnant and going to hours and hours of appointments. But unfortunately I have a job that can be demanding and that we count on the money from. And to compound the matter, I'm a contract employee which means I get paid hourly. I get compensated very well, but I have no sick time and I have no real lunch time even - when I'm not working I'm not getting paid.

I'm not sure what I'm looking for, I guess just a vent :(.
