Jenna woke up a few Saturdays ago, not acting like herself and feeling warm. We called the doctor because we didn't want her to be sick all weekend. Once she found out where she was going, she said she was feeling better, but we knew she was just trying to get out of going. : ) We took her to the weekend office where a female doctor was there instead of her usual male doctor. It was amazing how calm she was through the entire visit; she didn't cry at all. After the doctor left the room, I asked her if she liked the girl doctor better than her other doctor. She said, "I like girl doctors not boy doctors," so we'll be working on switching to her.
They ordered a strep test and a flu test (one in the mouth and one in the nose), so she wasn't thrilled at all with the nurse. Thankfully, both were negative, so the virus just ran it's course for a week or so and she was better. After the trauma of the test, I asked the nurse if they had a sucker, and they offered a popsicle; I never remember getting a popsicle when I went to the doctor! She survived the visit, may have found a new doctor in the process, and enjoyed a blue raspberry popsicle too!
