Well, I deicided that I need to start seeing an ob-gyn. I saw one once in 2008, when I lived in a different county, but never saw one before then or after then.

I will be 31 in January, so I know I really "should" be seeing one. I don't know why I haven't been.

I looked at the provider list on my insurance website and saw that the gyn my mom, aunt, and grandma have been seeing since before I was born was covered, but he was not accepting new patients. I'm not sure if I would choose him anyways, as he is in his 70's, which probably means he will retire soon. I would hate to find a dr. I am comfortable with only to have him retire. This dr. does work in a group office though and the other ob-gyns in his office also accept my insurance, so I gave them a call this morning assuming I would have to wait until January to get in.

Since I had no preference who I wanted (other than I wanted it to be a male), they just looked to see what the first available they had was. The secretary goes, "oh, you're in luck..."dr. t" had a cancellation and has an opening for Monday afternoon, would that work?" I was hesitant, but I took it. I figure with it being the holidays, they won't be open as many hours this week, so I can't call and "cancel" if I change my mind. I thought about it and decided that if I waited until January, I would have more time to "freak out" and end up cancelling.

I hate the idea of getting poked and probbed down there. I know it doesn't hurt, the one in 2008 was pain-free, just felt weird. I just still do not like the thought of anyone besides myself touching me down there.

Just thought I would vent my mixed feelings and stuff.
