So on top of all my pregnancy symptoms, I now have the death cough and a horrible sinus infection. How did I get so lucky? :-P It is nearly impossible to take care of my 2-1/2 year old when I feel like this. Every inch of my body hurts. And I can't even take good drugs cuz I'm pregnant, and because of my heart medication. I got cough syrup approved ( Read more... )

I want to buy a baby monitor from Babies R Us because I have a few gift cards for there and no money to buy one any where else.
Looking on the website is frustrating, the one that I had picked out in store and put on my registrty has awful reviews.

Six weeks left. Baby is heavy. I just want to lay down all the time, these leg cramps are something else. They start in my ass then just work their way down.

I also started getting the sharp vagina pains so I started doing kegels... hope I didn't start doing them too late.

Had a doctor appointment this morning and I found out that my baby has dropped and my cervix is about 50% effaced, no dilation yet though! Doc said it was a little early & that we just have to keep an eye on it. He was more concerned with my blood pressure that was pretty high today & wants me to come back in a week to make sure everything is going ( Read more... )

- I almost passed out today. I took a shower and when I got out, I had to lie down on the bathroom floor. I have felt like this to an extent after showers during this pregnancy, but not this bad. I'm guessing it's cuz I take hot showers. But it was really scary. I went to my doctor appointment soon after and my blood pressure and everything was ( Read more... )

My midwife appointment was, well, everything kind of went wrong except the actual appointment. Haha. It was scheduled for 11:30 this morning, and my ride was messed up and got to my house super early. I got to the birth center at 10:30, an hour early. Thankfully, my midwives were totally okay with it, and just saw me early. My blood pressure ( Read more... )
