The Waiting Game-almost over
So I know that I skipped Saturday, I really don't know why I did, I didn't have anything going on all day. Well there really wasn't much to record anyway.
So yesterday, the 29th, nothing was new, very little cramping and I was spotting and bleeding off and on all day. Last night, Ben was able to find a babysitter for Josiah and got out of the house with our friends. We went to Silverton and ate dinner at this bar that Nicole suggested and she said that it was just awesome. :) Haha, well she was right, I probably had the best burger in my life there, and the fries were stupendous too! After that we went bowling, I had a really great time. Just what I needed to get my mind off this. They know our story and they were nice enough to not mention it or make it awkward. After bowling we headed on back to Salem, went to another bar, and I just finally said to Ben "I'm tired and I'm ready to go home." I think that everyone else was too, but nobody wanted to say anything. ;)
Went home and did our normal nightly talk with the husband and passed out! Good times!
This morning getting ready for church I saw some spotting on my pad, but not much at all and had no cramping.
Went through all of service feeling very nauseous and so tired that I would've fell asleep during Matt's sermon easily if I was sitting closer to the back. I kinda got passively aggressive at Ben for not only sitting so close to the front, but sitting in the middle. So in case I really needed to head to the bathroom for a quick throw-up, it would be really obvious and definitely a distraction for most to see someone tripping over people's feet trying to get to the Lu on time. I was OK for the whole service besides that little nauseous issue.
When we got home, I noticed that I only spotted VERY little and had no cramps during service, instead now that I think about it, it's been all pregnancy symptoms this whole morning.
Nausea
Fatigue
Back pain
Tiny Bladder-I gotta pee like every 2 hours it seems.
Breast Tenderness
Weight Gain-Since this is my 2nd pregnancy, I can't seem to button my favorite jeans already. :/
Headache
Little poppy/gassy feelings in tummy-which makes me nauseous
Blind-I have to wear my glasses just to see anything again.
Sensitive gums-bleeding while brushing/flossing my teeth(only happens when preggo with me)
Hungry-Even after my breakfast of champions of a large bowl of oatmeal with strawberries and a banana, small glass of milk and a small decaf coffee from Starbucks.
I had all these with Josiah in my 1st trimester, but not nearly as intense.
Things are looking up! Doesn't sound like it, lol.(Actually looks like I'm sick) ;) But you all know what I mean.
Cravings so far? Kiwi! and a large heated CC cookie with a large glass of milk! yum!
After getting Josiah down for a nap, I had a huge headache and was so tired that not even 10 minutes after taking Tylenol I was passed out on the couch.
I just woke up around 3pm and now I'm writing this to tell you that my boobs hurt! Like, I was carrying Josiah up the stairs from his bedroom and it hurt to carry him because of the slight pressure he was putting on one of them. Ouch! I'm super hungry too, and I think that I'm going to bake the lasagna that I have saved in the freezer for a good day. Well, it's one of those days!
We are going to find out tomorrow to see if my numbers have changed. Hopefully it looks good, cause from what I'm experiencing, with the way my body is reacting it seems to be really looking good.
So after my blood has been taken, I'll find out an hour later in what I need to do. The OB that I've been seeing has been so sweet, she seems very understanding and doesn't like to use medical intervention as much as other Dr.s. If I am a high risk, which she did mention that there is a chance, then I'll probably stick with her.
I thank God for the peace that he has given me, and the love that is poured out from my wonderful, supportive friends.
Love you all!
Jess
