Here is the 16 week belly picture. Sorry I look so haggard, we were at the mall (Calista and I) shopping for Skip’s birthday tomorrow. I am feeling better these days… still have my IV and still have bad (sick) days, but overall, much better. Now my issues seem to be back/tummy pains and shortness of breath. Whew!! (Read on …)
Home from the hospital. It was a long day. We got there at 1:20 pm and got home at just before 7 pm. Having the PICC line put in wasn’t horrendous — it was mostly the mental aspect of it that got me. (Read on …)
So I guess I’m working on a once-a-week update schedule these days…
Let’s see. I had an appointment on Thursday (May 24th) but it was totally boring. I just sat there and answered the nurse’s list of questions about my health and history. Had a blood draw, pee test, and that was it. I did, however, go to wash my hands before the pee test and notice that my wedding band — which I wear on my right hand — was gone. (Read on …)
I am so glad to see that my “babies” over on the right side of this blog are actually starting to look like babies and less like aliens. It was kind of freaking me out.
I spent most of the day in bed today. The “morning” sickness is getting me good. It’s all day, and it’s really this taste in my mouth that’s killing me! I get this foul taste in my mouth that no amount of tooth-brushing, candy-sucking, gum chewing or other remedies can get rid of. And once I get “the taste” I get sick. It’s a viscous, endless cycle, I tell you. (Read on …)
Pregnant Glow. That is NOT what I have going on right now. Hopefully, I will encounter it soon, for everyone’s sake, but right now, it’s more like the Mask of Death.
I was terribly sick when pregnant with Calista and hoped I’d get passed over by the sickness fairy this time, but she has visited me twofold. I am entirely grateful to be so ill, but I may need to post a reminder of that on the underside of my toilet lid soon. In all seriousness, I’ll take it! It means I am pregnant and the babies are growing. I love it. (Read on …)
Ok, so I hadn’t posted for a few days and now you get a two-for-one deal. I had posted about the amazing bloating belly this morning and thought I would share a picture, because it’s fascinating to me. This did NOT happen when I was pregnant with Calista. (Read on …)
I’m FINALLY getting close to the Beta day. I can’t believe I’ve waited this long. If it weren’t for the increasing darkness of the pee sticks, I am sure I’d have gone mad by now, but the pee sticks have kept me sane through this wait. I knew I liked them for a reason. (Read on …)
