Ick

Remember when ultrasounds were fun and exciting? Yes, I know. That was so ten to thirteen years ago. I had one today. Let's just say that it was...Unpleasant.

Woman with Wand: (With a happy tone) "Oh, So you had an abortion?"
Me: "I had a miscarriage"
WWW: "yes, It says here that you had an abortion. Please take off your underwear and sign this consent form"


Eww. There were other unpleasantries, but I'll spare you them.

And why do those gowns close in the back? Do you know how hard it is to carry a purse, boots, winter jacket and pants with one hand while the other is around your back trying to keep the people in the waiting room from seeing your booty as you walk down the hall?

And is it really necessary to drink 40 oz. of water? That's a lot of water to hold in for an hour and a half.

To top it off - They make you pay for parking.

Unpleasant I tell ya. And humiliating too.
