So my name is Ashley && I'm 18 years old. I found out I was pregnant on June 2nd && it was a major shock. My fiance and I were at work && I had been getting sick every morning && it didn't sink in my head there could be a possibility. So he got me a test && surprised me with it Lol. That plus sign came up so fast!! We got engaged back in April. I couldn't be happier. This baby may have came as a shock but we are both eager to welcome it with open arms, && we are going to do the best we can.
July 8th: So far in this pregnancy I have had the worst morning sickness ever! I was in the emergency room a few weeks ago, && they got all of my fluids back in me. I had been throwing up non stop 24/7 and I was unable to keep anything down. Since then I have felt 100% better. I only am getting sick every other day, IF THAT! It's such a relief. I go to the doctor next Tuesday and I'm so excited. It's my 2nd appt. but I get to see my growing baby then!!
So I went to the Dr. last week && I didn't even get to see my baby:(( I got up to go back and I passed out. See for the past few years I've been getting really bad headaches && I was on a very powerful medication to help with them, but it wasn't pregnancy safe. So now I have to deal with it. Every time I get up, I get extremely dizzy && my left arm goes numb, along with that side of my face. But I was fine && I did get to hear the heartbeat!! But If I start feeling like I have been I am going to the emergency room. I can understand the headaches, but the numbing sensation I get?? If anybody has advice please help me! My fiance.....well let's just say it takes a lot to convince him the ER is needed. Very impatient guy. So far today though I am feeling ok. But now that I've said that Lol. We all know I'll start feeling like poop again:P
