Paging Doctor Unhelpful

I had an annual ob-gyn exam scheduled, so I called up and asked if I could also have a “preconception visit.” This is only because every book I have read told me I should do this, and since I didn’t actually do it the first time around but got a second chance, I figured I would give it a whirl. Well, let’s just say the doctor’s office didn’t give a hoot. Also, the receptionist who spoke with me had no idea what I was talking about. So, basically, I came in for my usual “feet-up-slide-down-you’ll-feel-a-pinch” routine, told the doctor I wanted to start a family, she smiled and said “great, call me if you think you’re pregnant” and was out the door. So, good thing I worried about it.

Not.
