Brianna is Back

I had another appt today and all is good, we can go back to normal monthly visits. That is good news, again baby sounds good. Heartbeat was 150's again.
The best news of all is that I am feeling like myself more and more. I haven't really been sick since Memorial weekend and my energy level is improving. Please be true so we can enjoy this time, and plan for our little arrival. We tried to stay patient but as the 12 week date slipped gradually further and further away and I was still sick it was getting difficult.

We can't wait until our next appt. (June 26th) as we will find out if we are having a boy or a girl!!

3 is the Magic Number

Their scales at the OB say I've gained 3 pounds despite still feeling sick. I was able to drink my Boosts and I guess they really do work! I still have to return in a week to make sure that is safe for my trip to Cancun!

One Way to Lose Weight

Today was a follow-up appt. from my hospitalization. The baby's heartbeat was 150 and everything seems fine with it. But...
I have lost 20 pounds in 7 weeks, which is no longer "within normal" so I have to start drinking high calorie drinks like Boost and come back in a week to see if I'm still losing. Wish me luck!

Fun in the Sun

Dan,Mom, Dad, and I traveled to Florida for a long weekend. It was so enjoyable and I was actually pretty healthy. I had to take it easy, but what better was to enjoy the sun and sand. The guys spent every day golfing at courses in the area while Mom and I shopped and went to the pool.
I'm thinking maybe we are over the hump of this thing because I am now 12 weeks!! Yeah!!

To Triage We Go

I made my second visit to triage on Monday, this has too be bottom. I was feeling even worse than last Thursday and in tears on the phone with my OB. She said she wanted me to come in again to triage to get fluids.
I finished my CPR training class at the hospital and then went to Women's to be admitted to triage. CPR put me WAY over the edge, that is how sick I was!
This time we are going to try a course of steroids with my other meds and see if my body can gain back some strength. We leave for Florida this Friday(only 4 days) so I've got to get better SOON!
Mom and Dad came to the hospital after I was all settled in and Mom stayed there with me to drive me home. This time we stayed for the entire bag of fluids and didn't get home until almost 2am, so we were exhausted. We pray there is only a few more weeks of this craziness.
