23-8-2007 - First Trimester

My mood while writing this blog:
Morning Sickness Eck!

............ August 24, 2007
Took pregnancy test before missed period. I just felt like something was "off". Brandon thought I was crazy for wasting a pregnancy test . . . . but . . . I wasn't so crazy after all :)

Aug. 24, 2007 (4weeks +5days)

We should have known something was up when I woke up Tuesday night at midnight and starting eating doritos and milk.

We are so excited about our new edition, including my 4 year old son, that we are now looking for a bigger house to settle into. May the search begin. YAY!! I'm gonna be a mommy again. Everyone thinks its gonna be a girl this time. I had to go to the doctor yesterday, because I have a massive sinus infection thats really messing with my asthma. I got an antibiotic WooHoo!!

The all day sickness has begun. Its awful! So much worse with this pregnancy. I am trying everything that everyone is telling me to do. Nothing seems to help. The doctor called in phenagran suppositories...and that was a big NOPE DIDNT WORK EITHER. Im just lucky I guess :( I remember having this problem the first time I have the worse excess of salvia in my mouth that I am constantly having to spit. If I don't it just makes me sicker.

Big Brother Mason's 4th Birthday :)
Symptoms: I have increasing pressure and crampiness in my abdomen.
Bad morning sickness but Worse in the evenings
Can't eat meals, but I snack all day
Really really bad excess salvia
I am craving noodles and water, both which make me sick :(
I can eat ice chips though

September 24, 2007 Dr. App. 10:00 am (9weeks +1day)
-weighed: 198 lbs (lost 7 lbs)
-bp: 134/88
-urine: neg
-EDD: May 1, 2008 (calculated by LMP)
-EDC: August 7, 2007
-FHT: not heard yet :(
Doctor couldnt do much because we are so early. We came up with a due date and decided to wait until our first ultrasound to get a better idea. We just discussed that this would probably be a repeat c-section due to the complications from my first pregnancy.

September 30, 2007 ER 7:00 pm (10 weeks)
-I had severe tunnel vision, was very dizzy, vomiting alot, headache, and very fast heartbeat.
-bp: 175/115 (they kept doing orthostatic blood pressures this was the average)
-EKG: neg
-urine: neg
-bloodwork: showed moderate dehydration
-FHT: still not heard :(
In conclusion they gave me some fluids and said I had pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) which was causing me to have vertigo, but at this point was not harming the baby. To call my ob in the morning.

October 3, 2007 Dr. App. 9:40 am (10weeks +3days)
-bp: 140/116
-urine: neg
-FHT: not heard
Dr. agreed with the PIH diagnosis and started me on a blood pressure pill called labetalol. I can't believe how quickly I am showing this time!

Oct. 5, 2007 (10weeks + 5days)

Foods i can stand are slushies and soups. I have been sending Brandon to so many gas stations for slushies that its hilarious. I like mixing the cherry with the mountain dew. lol Plus when puking up slushies and soup they come back up the same way they went down.
