First, your baby will be fine and maybe need pain meds for the first 48 hours, but even that is unlikely. And second, I know what it is to have to sort out an office staff. When the specialists started saying it is okay (maybe preferable) to breed a female 2 times in a row, I bred one of my moms. I took her in for Xrays and was sitting in the waiting room with her. I have used this vet practice for almost 30 years. One of the girls looked at the record and loudly reminded me that I had just bred Midori her last heat cycle. I said I had and that I was following current practices. She said "I don't care what the so-called spec. say it is just wrong to breed 2 times in a row!" I told her I would not discuss it with her and went to the exam room. I asked for the owner of the practice and told him in NO UNCERTAIN TERMS would I tolerate ever being spoken to by ANY of his staff in that manner whether in a waiting room with other patients or alone in an exam room and asked for an apology from that woman. I got it and I have not had ONE problem since..
You and your baby deserve respect and you are right to expect it...but remember, you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar If you really love the practice, then try gently to sort it out. If not, givvem hell, Harry!! |
