People ask me for updates about various things in my life, and I feel that I’m always answering, “Well we’re still waiting to hear…” This week we’re supposed to hear about several things. 1) I decided to switch practices to the midwife my friend uses and recommends. However, because I’m 32 weeks along, the new practice won’t make an appointment to see me until they see my records. I asked the former practice to fax my medical records, but because…
