A lot of firsts.. Family Planning appointment..

I wasn't actually very excited or even planned to get a birth control. No, I am not against it; in fact I am actually for it but never really thought it will be for me. I am 28 years old, going 29 in January. I want to have babies. And birth control won't help achieving that.

Unfortunately, I was struck by sickness at my prime baby years. I was suppose, or was planning to get knocked up now that I am 28, since we had a go signal to the possible grandmother-to-be that she could be a granny by the time she is 40. She is now 40. But I can't have my baby. Not just yet.

Yesterday, I went to my very first family planning appointment. Got my no no parts checked. My boobs checked for lumps. I even had a paps smear. My nursing aid or what ever she was, was amazing! She was very gentle, very warm and welcoming. I am ticklish so I laughed when she touched my breast. I laughed when she touched my inner thigh when she checked it for lumps as well. I laughed when she checked my abdomen. And she said sorry all the time. Lady, I was laughing, I wasn't crying.

The lady also did a paps smear, hopefully it comes back normal. I don't need another sickness at the moment. My body have enough. It's hard you know. Not being able to do what you want to do because you are feeling bad. Or you want to try out something and you can't because it's not advisable. I want to go somewhere but I can't because of almost every other week of doctors appointment. Oh well.

I was able to get my contraceptive. I got Depo-Provera, which a shot that I am suppose to get every 12 weeks. Although my doctor advised that I either get IUD or an implant, the family planning center usually lets the patient try out first time patients the type of contraceptive they would prefer. Since I prefered shots that's the one they gave me.

I hope I won't gain weight because of the shots. I will be trying so hard to eat healthy. Need to get in a gym soon.

Wish me luck. Will add more information soon...

Missed Appointment...

I didn't mean to, I am not really aware that I missed one. Until I asked one of the nurses at my Dermatology clinic if I could have a list of my upcoming appointment.

And there is was... Missed appointment(s)... and I was puzzled...

You know what's worst? It's my rheumatology appointment. It's the most important doctor's appointment. She's the one who usually gives and see's over all my medications. My primary doctor is the one who checks that she didn't missed anything or possible better treatment options. But she is good, my rheumatologist, she actually got everything covered. AND I MISSED AN APPOINTMENT!!! and I didn't found out about it, until few weeks ago. I missed an appointment and realized it after 2 months!!!!

:(

I need someone to help me with this appointment things.. :(

It's been a while... 06/14/12

Since I have wrote something..
I have been a bit busy lately... :) for a change...

Friday, me my baby decided to go out for sushi... which is really awesome and was surprised that we only spend 30 dollars to eat. And we are full!!! :) You guys should drop by Tenno Sushi, and don't forget to try their awesome tempura rolls...
Remembered to take a picture before we finished it.
Top to bottom: Salmon roll, california roll, california tempura rolls

Awesome skyline of Downtown LA, view from Little Tokyo

And my Baby, pointing at a street sign with his name on it... :)
Also, I was able to go deep sea fishing for the first time!!!! :) Didn't fish tho, but I did go on the speed boat and was able to ride and jump thru the waves... :) Loved it, except that they don't have pee pee spots for women, while my boyfriend and his male relatives just points towards the other direction, away from me, and pee away... :/ need to bring diapers next time. And i will!!! :)

And yes, I wear sunblock. 100spf, twice!! :) think it worked, for I do not have sunburn only just a bit.. :) but i also covered myself in black jacket and a cap.

Light House by Cabrillo Beach in San Pedro "Angel's Gate Light"
Look! They have a pet boat!! :)
Picky pelican, didn't want to eat ghost shrimps..

I also was able to finish reading the 50 shades trilogy. I suggest this have a mature rating, and would not be sold to people 21 and below. LOL.

although, there is a hype and it being a best seller... as a book, its not nice. As an erotica , hell yeah!! LOL

On a less happy note, I missed a doctor's appointment. And it is not my fault. I was suppose to go a family planning appointment, but I guess all that bouncing on my little speed boat ride was too much for my poor uterus. I bled earlier that suppose to. oh well, so they scheduled me next month. Man, I need those damn contraceptives!! My doctors won't give me anything stronger than what I am already getting until I get those. The earlier I am out of the Lupy flare up the earlier I will be able to have a baby... :/

I had plans, and then I got Lupus... c'est la vie...
