i went to the doctors on thursday just like i was planning on too have them fill out the form stating that i couldnt work. i spoke to the nurse show her the form, and she said that she didnt get any medical records from the hospital, and that they dont do that, i have to actually get the records from the hospital, and bring them to their office so that they had them. i told her what i was diagnosed with, which is a pregnancy with a tear in the placenta, and she had no problem filling the form out saying that i couldnt work for the rest of my pregnancy, and 6-8 weeks after delivery. she also said that i couldnt lift anything over 10 pounds, to rest and take it easy, and also not to have sex until speaking with the doctor on my next appointment which is on the 12th. all of that just made it so much more serious for me then the emergency room doctor, because he didnt tell us any of that, and he was making it sound like it was really nothing to worry about. so after hearing all of that i started to get worried again. so now i am paranoid about not lifting anything that might be to heavy, i am not having sex, which is making my mood wonderful, and i am sure that the hormones that are going around inside of me isnt helping either. and i am not working. which i wasnt before, but there goes any ideas of getting a part time job to help us out financially. even for a few hours a week. not that i am complaining about all of this, i am very happy that i am pregnant, and i just want whats best for the baby to make sure that nothing happens and that the baby is okay. so i brought the paper that the doctor filled out back to workforce alliance like they had stated, and they gave me the paper to give back to children and families, but they advised me that in 10 days i would get an appointment with them i had to still go to, and still fill out forms with them, and also that every month i have to bring some sheet to my doctors office that they will mail me to keep them updated with my condition and treatment. so surprise, surprise, my dealings with them arent done. it figures, why did i think that it would be that easy to just get a form filled out and i wouldnt have to have any dealings with them for like the next 8-9 months or so, i should have known better. but anyway.
on friday i called my old job to make sure that they had completed the form that i had given them from children and families, mind you i had given it to them a week and a half before this, and it had to be turned in with all the rest of my papers on friday. i talked to the same girl that i had given it to, which is in human resources, and she said that she had sent it to someone in payroll, so she called her and called me back and said that she still hadnt done it yet, and didnt know when it would be completed. so that is just great, i really hope that this doesnt hold up my getting approved for benefits, especially medicaid, because i dont have any insurance right now, and that is the benefit that i am most concerned about and that i feel that i need the most right now. i am going to give them another few days, and then i am going to call the girl in human resources and get the number for the girl in payroll and find out what the issue is, because it is just a simple form, i dont see why it should be this complicated.
my boyfriend and i went to look at more new housing complexes today, and i guess that silly me, i had thought that it was a possibility that we could actually get one at some point in the near future, and that was why we were looking at them. but when he talked to me about it further, he explained to me that without help from the first time home buyers program and getting one of his loans paid off, we wouldnt be able to make the monthly payments. the first time homebuyers we were told by someone in a sales office for homes that it can take at least 6-8 months to get through with, and the loan probably wont get paid off for at least another 3 months or so. so i wanted to know why he was making me look at these beautiful townhomes, that we cant get any time in the near future, because there is no way that we can possibly afford them. so that got me discouraged, there was this beautiful 3 story townhome that we saw today that i really loved. and they are of course running a special on them now, they hugely reduced the prices of them. but there is no point in even thinking about them, because there is no guarantee that they will be available whenever the heck we can do it, and even with the home buyers thing and the loan paid off, the exact way that things are right now, i dont think that we would still be able to do it, unless somethings changed financially. for the better of course. sigh.
