Yesterday

Well....I don't really know what to say about it. Other then the fact that it was a terrible day!! We had soo much to do & I literally felt like poop the WHOLE day. I'm not so sure I can blame the baby anymore, because besides the nausea & diarrhea I also had chills & body aches. Then I ended up vomiting violently around 8PM. After that, I thought I had maybe caught some kind of GI bug & was not all too excited about that. =( K even called in sick from work today because he wasn't sure I was going to be well enough to take care of Carter.

I fell asleep before 9PM last night & was definitely still feeling terrible at the time. At some point in the middle of the night, I woke up boiling hot & threw all my covers off. When I woke up this morning, other then feeling REALLY thirsty & dehydrated I was 100% fine. I don't really understand what was going on, but I am definitely thankful for the reprieve. So far, I have no return of sickies. SMH. Here's to hoping it was just a 24 hour thing? I guess only time will tell, but if that is what my MS is going to be like...I am not looking forward to it!!

I missed a call yesterday afternoon from the clinic & ended up calling back around 6PM. The message was them calling to schedule my initial OB visit. When I called back they basically told me EXACTLY what I had feared was going to occur. My OB is booked out until April. Yep. >=( Anyway, they asked me to call back today during regular business hours to talk to someone in Nurse Advice because they were sure that they wouldn't want me to wait that long to see my doctor. So...I call back today & talk to a VERY nice nurse. Yep, still can't get in to be seen until April 1. Awesome....

Needless to say, we have a loooooong way to go before we get to see or hear this little one. =( I know time will go by quickly, but it still makes me a little bit sad. And since we won't be doing the NT scan or genetic testing this time around (not covered by insurance) we will only potentially have 2 ultrasounds with this baby where we had 4 with Mr. C. It almost makes me want to spring for an elective elsewhere just to get to see the kiddo one more time. =) We will see what happens. The only good thing that is different about this time around is that I have a Doppler. It's currently in storage & obviously too early regardless, but I can't wait to start using it! And thankfully, that will be one thing I can begin using BEFORE my appt. Thank god I've had a lot of practice with these things. =)
