Kaiecee-I added you on Pinterest!

I asked my doctor about what she recommended for my cold...she said lots of water, tylenol for a sore throat, and basic sudafed if my congestion becomes unbearable. I've been doing the tylenol and fluids, as well as sucking on hard candy for my throat.

To make things even more fun in NJ they are implementing gas rationing starting tomorrow. Its based on your license plate. Since the last number in my plate is even I can only buy gas on even calendar days! Crazy!! I really hope they get more electricity going soon so more stations can open up and eliminate some of the crazy lines. Right now they are predicting that by Sunday they will only have restored 22% of the people in my township who lost power. It will have been 6 days since power went out at that point and the temps are supposed to get pretty cold. I think the high on SUnday isn't even supposed to reach 50F...we brought a bunch of things over to my parents to camp out for the weekend. I just hope my cat is smart enough to bundle up in the extra blankets I left out for her!! We'll check on her tomorrow because we have our glider being delivered. I had hoped to have the nursery cleaned out better for the delivery but it's been so overcast that even during the day there isn't much light to do anything in the house.

Hi Ladies... Thought I'd update here as I had my scan yesterday.

Baby Zoela weighs 2lbs 6oz, 10 1\2 inches long. She loves playing with her cord and sticking out her tongue. She's beautiful! Absolute perfection! May she just grow and grow while we try to patiently wait...

The cat should be fine if you left food and water. It may not be the comfort it's use to, but we had several cats growing up that would stay out all night in below freezing temps in Maine. at least the cat has shelter even I there's no power.

TMI Alert*** gross alert*** sorry bored.

So I was woken by what I now consider the rudest awakening possible! I think my water breaking would have been more pleasant!! so I ordered pizza for supper, because well I overdid it today and went shopping to finish my list. so of course a late night of pizza caused miserable heartburn I was so tired that tho partially elevated I dozed off while dealing with it. Not long after falling asleep I was awakened by me throwing up in my mouth, (you know how you have a puke burp, but don't throw up? Similar) but it startled me and I shot up out of bed and them jumped out toward my trash can. Threw up all over the wall, floor and outside of trash. ripped off the trash cover and continued throwing up. (immediate heartburn relief I must say. ) while throwing up uncontrolably I pee'd my pants. when I thought I was "done" I realized I had crap in my nose. Yes chunks of pizza. every time I would try to clear my nose it would start a whole new round of vomiting. While still throwing up dh thought he should come tell me that "I can't leave my puke on the floor and it stinks and he cant clean it" so in between throwing up and still leaking in my panties I asked if I could finish throwing up first! Finally got the vomiting under control, and the floor and wall cleaned up. Then I had to shower. I felt "acid-free" but was then wide awake and afraid to lay down to sleep. Finally fell asleep (with a bucket by my side ready this time ) dozed off and 3 hrs later I've just woken with throwing up again in my mouth. I did however manage to react more calmly and it ended there. But now it's 3:30 in the morning and I am sitting up refusing to go back to sleep. Sorry for all the gross details, just thought I'd share my night with "joys of pregnancy" that and it's extremely boring at 3:30 in the morning. And really all i want to do is sleep

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL pregnancy is a hoot isn't it.

You poor poor thing!!!! I've pee'd while vomiting, i thought my bloody waters had broken it freaked me out so much. I know what you mean about vomit nose though. Once it's in there everytime you try to clear it, it makes you vomit more. It's just the worst!!!

As for heartburn, i've been in horrific pain for a week. I thought i was actually having a damn heart attack. It's 24/7 too and just AWFUL!!! i finally asked my doctor and she said buy zantac! and i must admit today has been complete heaven.

 

[snowangel187]

I do get heartburn quite often and it's usually worse at night and I should have known pizza would be a big no-no, but dd was begging for pizza and it meant I didn't have to cook. it usually settles tho and I don't need to do anything other then wait a little bit and it goes away. I can tell you one thing I now have a fear of pizza and will for sure not eat it again during pregnancy and may not ever again I tend to be turned off of foods after I've had them in my nose.

 

[Betheney]

me and my husband are hardcord Thai food eaters, we both got food poisoning one night and it was so brutal we shudder whenever we walk past a thai food place now. lol. It's going to take me a long time to consider eating it again.

 

[Leinzlove]

I also get the heartburn bad. I wake up with it so bad, I drool and throw up. I don't even have to eat anything spicy... etc. I try elevating my head, but it does little to help.

 

[ARuppe716]

Snow- thank for you the kitty reassurance. I'm sure she's fine but she's one of the family and I can't help but feel guilty leaving her there!! I'm sorry you had to go through your vomiting... No fun at all!! I had tacos too late last night and althOugh propped up just woke up needing tuns desperately and am now wide awake. Pregnancy is just so much fun!!

 

[BlossomJ]

Oh dear Snow, that sounds like the worst night! I feel queasy just thinking about it!... and your DH was rather mean! I don't think men are very good with vomit though - when DS was sick DH could barely stay in the room without throwing up!

 

[BlossomJ]

I had bad heartburn last night but managed to get rid of it before bed. I hadn't intended on cooking, but DH decided to work from home so I made something nice... and then didn't enjoy it at all!

 

[ARuppe716]

It's happy dance time!! After 5 days we have power back! I've never been so happy to turn on a light in the bathroom!

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Glad to see the power back on! My aunt and uncle live in port republic nj...he works on large telephone poles and has been restoring power to everyone who lost it... Thank god u have ur power now though!


Rough night over here, my back, my hips, vomiting, hot flashes...im a hot mess!

 

[gingermango]

went to a family firework party last night and had crampy stomach with sickness and diahorrea all night then dh woke at 3am with toothache and had to go to the 24hr tesco and buy a temporary filling kit.
definitly counting down the days now i feel like death warmed up

on a plus point my baby changing bag arrived yesterday so im now officially packed and ready to go lol

 

[Kaiecee]

My dr. Prescribed me Zantac for my heartburn I take morning and night sometimes I don't and trust me I feel it it makes my morning sickness really bad if not and I completely understand the peeing at the same time which is so yucky dh laughs but god is it embarrassing.

 

[Kaiecee]

Yay I'm not a eggplant anymore finally a SQUASH!!!

 

[Kaiecee]

I have a question how many bottles will I need???
I have right now 3x4oz
And 5x9oz bottles but can only use one for a month cuz the other 4 are a nipple that has a faster flow and it says to use at 1 month old which I didn't see till after I bought it hope someone can help

I didnt use bottles but honestly I would get at least 3 more 4oz bottles and you'll need more nipples. They will eat every two to 3 hours so that could be up to 12 times a day. The question is how often do u want to wash bottles? And probably u could get a few more 9 oz bottles tho u won't need them for a few months.

 

[Kaiecee]

That's what I thought thanks
