My OB appt was at 3:10

I am still in the waiting room at 4:15. I should have brought my laptop to work on. Or at least a book. Aargh.

I fucking hate that.

I haaaate that.

ETA:  But not as much as I hate when they put you in the room and you're sitting there in your paper skirt and vest just waiting and waiting for the doctor to show up.

They just called yet one more person that is "not me". I think there may be another one left too before my turn.
I just called H to say he is on pickup duty tonight because I will not make my train.

I had an ob-gyn that I waited THREE hours to see once. I never went back. Later I found out that she routinely triple books appointment times. Seriously, fuck her.

I'm way happier in a room, even if I'm in a paper robe.  The reason is that my OB (and midwives last pregnancy) shared an office with general/family practice doctors and I HAAAATE sitting in the waiting room with a bunch of sick people. 

At least once I'm in the room, it's my OB's exam room, and hopefully most of the patients who have been in there are healthy.

I got in at 5 and am now on the 5:40 train home.
I know the OB was in colposcopy clinic all morning at the hospital so I guess something held her there longer and she fell behind. The nurses brought her a juice right before my appt because they were worried she was thirsty and starving so at least I know it is not because she took a long lunch or something.

I am with you.  I would much rather wait in a private room than the waiting room.
