Are my feet pregnant too?

For real! I put my shoes on this morning and I thought the sides were going to blow out.

I think I am starting to go downhill.
**sigh**

In case you dont know

In case you don't know the terminology.

Here is a quick breakdown. I know some of my family is reading this say FU... what? Goddamn test? What is she talking about.

f/u = Follow up
GD = Gestational Diabetes
DH = Dear Husband
WTF = What the Fuck/Where the fuck
AYKM = Are you kidding me
BRU = Babys R Us

f/u to yesterday's post

Apparently what I have is normal. **Yea, OK.**

Doc said it should correct itself. I would like to know when.
He said I have a lot going on and the baby is growing at a faster rate and I have more fluids and blood pumping thru my body. Nothing to worry about. Just take it easy and make sure I am eating.

They also decided to send me now vs later to get my GD test done. Ick.

Aside from that, everything is perfect and right on schedule. Baby Cakes of course did not cooperate and the Doc had to chase the baby around the find the heartbeat, which was a perfect 145.

Its always something

I have been sick since Christmas Eve. Started with a sore throat and just got worse from there.
I decided to suck it up and head into the family doctor.
A mild case of strep and a Upper Respiratory Infection. AYFKM?

I couldn't breathe, my throat was on fire and for a few days I had no voice.
A low dose Z pack to the rescue. Finally feeling 98% better.

As if that weren't enough for me to handle, I now have a case of the dizzies. Almost slight case of vertigo. I prolly shouldn't be driving, but I can not depend on other people to drive me to and from work.

I have a OB appt today. Hopefully they can figure out WTH is wrong with me.
I'll keep you posted.

Babycakes, baby kicks

A huge milestone for me.
I felt baby cakes kick from the outside last night! I never thought it would happen.
I think the baby was as pissed as I was about the Fiesta Bowl.
Baby cakes did kick again. I made sure it wasn't just my imagination. But ya think the baby would do it again, so DH could feel it? Nope. Oh well, maybe tonight.

Indecisive

I have never in my life been an indecisive person. So uh, what gives? I'm going to blame it on hormones.

Lets start with the nursery. At first I thought I wanted to paint. Then changed my mind b/c I found the mural. Then last night B asked if I was sure I didn't want to paint and I said no. OMG. Slap me now. I have the mural, but hello, there are 3 other walls. Maybe I can just paint one of them? No? Yes?.......I don't know.

Then there is the baby shower. Thank god we set a date. And have a venue. The menu? Oh that's a completely different story. We can decide on something and 2 hours later I will change my mind. Argh.

These two things are just the tip of the iceberg. I seem to change my mind on everything these days.

Having a baby in 09

Happy 2009!!!

I can officially say we are having a baby THIS YEAR!!! ***insert mild panic attack***

It seemed liked we tried FORever. Then it seemed like 40 weeks would take FORever. Now here I sit at 24 weeks freaking out because I have nothing done.

The nursery still sits holding all 8 loads of laundry I did yesterday and all the presents we got for Christmas. Including the loot Babycakes got. I'll upload pictures later.

And registering...pfft. Haven't even done it yet. Although I do have the date scheduled. How sad is that. I am so freaking busy I have to schedule a time to register. And it will not be on a Saturday afternoon. I am likely to punch anyone who pisses me off.
