I have achieved the impossible! I went
to the doctor today, and just straight up
told him I wanted an ultrasound and I
wanted medicaid to pay for it. He said
he could come up something and tomorrow
i'm scheduled for one at 1:30. I'm so
happy, tomorrow (later today) i'll know
the sex. I absolutely love my doctor.
Anyone else have a male doctor? All my
friends have female gynos and think it's
weird that I see a male. I've been to
him since I was like 12.

Congrats, that is great. But what is so
impossible about getting medicaid to pay
for your ultrasound, and getting the doc
to agree to it? I get an ultrasound at
every appointment.

I only got one ultrasound my entire
pregnancy cuz I was "too healthy" for
another one. Jerks lol but I also have a
male and I would feel weird having a woman
but that is just me
That is exactly why. Me and my pregnancy
are extremely normal and healthy and
medicaid only pays for medically necessary
ultrasounds. My doctors just cool and he
came up with a reason.

Thats great. 3 of mine were medially
necessary, out of the 4 I got (i always
say 3, because I forget about the 4th) the
first I got because I was 9 weeks and 6
days and she said I only felt like I was
about 6 weeks. And then the 2nd one they
told me a month in advance that they were
sending me so I could find out the sex and
see the baby. The 3rd was because I was
measuring 31 weeks when I was 35 so the
measured my amniotic fluid, and the 4th
was when I went a day overdue, they did it
right in my docs office to measre my fluid
again and take measurements of the baby to
make sure everything was alright. She
also seperated my membranes that
day......Not fun! Lol! But yeah medicaid
paid for all of it, which was great! I
thought it was funny when she said she was
sending me to find out the sex, and I
didnt even ask. I was like yayyyyyy!
Lol. I hate it when they schedule it so
far in advance though, I thought the wait
would kill me!!! Lol.
