This pregnancy has been pretty rough, all around. The first 4 months I was plagued with Hyperemesis Gravidarum also known as severe morning sickness, lost 10 pounds, and felt like I would never be able to eat normally again. I had to go to the ER for dehydration, and was so scared for my baby's well being. Luckily baby was okay, and by taking a daily zophran I was able to *usually* make it through the day without throwing up. Slowly but surely - I was feeling better ! I got rid of a few negative people in my life too, which was a huge bonus for me! Stress was not needed, and was certainly unhealthy for my baby and me. I only want good people around me, ones who enrich my life and are positive. The people around you should be a reflection of who you are, your morals, and who you want to be around.
That being said, the ones who *are* in my life have been a great support to me in my latest challenge. The ones who have called, came to visit, and actually been there and offered words of encouragement - those are the people I cherish most. My Breast Biopsies are scheduled for this Friday. I am nervous, but I know that I am in God's hands and whatever he has in store for me is the path that I must take.
On a happy and positive note I am excited that in just 3 short months, we will meet our little princess!
She is approximately 3+ pounds, and 14 inches long. She is kicking up a storm too.
Olivia is starting to realize that somethings going on. I recently did something I swore I would never do...I purchased 2 adorable matching outfits for her and the new baby for this summer. I showed her both , and at first she was completely floored. She looked at me like I was crazy. But every morning, she pats my belly, pulls my shirt up, giggles, and says baby! So I know she is starting to grasp the concept that soon enough there will be another little person here.
