I know. I am worried too about losing my LO...and the last 2 pregnancy tests I tried were both faulty and I can't afford to keep buying them. Its hard to not have control over this and just wait.
Really crampy.
I'm feeling a bit of a mess tonight- and I know its just all these hormones but not a fun all the same...
I've been feeling off tonight and having a cry for no reason at all. Then I just got off the phone with my OH (he is busy at work), and now I'm sad and upset with him, even though it's not his fault. I just want him to be here and give me a hug and tell me everything is going to be ok...over-tired, upset stomach, and massive hormones do not make for a most enjoyable evening! I know this is all part of the process, that I'll feel better in the morning and I should just try and get some sleep...
I'm such a mess myself tonight too! So crabby for no reason. I am tired I know that much but I have stuff to do that once I'm done I can rest all weekend!
I had my dr appt last night. She said all my tests were clear (the blood work and the pre O ultrasound to see why I wasn't getting pregnant...) Without skipping a beat she said congrats, are you on prenatals, and how's your diet.... Ordered some blood work which I'll do tomorrow. She weighed me too, I'm am starting out far heavier than I planned... YIKES. But now is not the time to diet! I'll manage and hopefully gain only within the recommended range. Hopefully the midwife can give me some direction how to plan my meals better. I get so sick near lunch and I'm sure it's because I'm too hungry but I don't know what more I can eat! I'm constipated and bloated so there's not really room for food right now.
Interestingly enough, my blood work includes required blood tests for public health! this was news to me. I get screened for HIV, Syphillis, Rubella & Hep B antigens. Pretty neat that they make sure every preggo has to get tested for that. and then all the other regular blood work and she's testing my thyroid again. I think that will be an issue because from whatever my number was on my last test she said she'd be for sure testing me again when I got pregnant... so that makes me think I'm on the edge of it being an issue. Anyway Midwife appt is Dec 7th so not far away. Dr was quite proud of me for getting that all lined up already. And with this bloodwork on the weekend I won't need time off work so I can hopefully fly under the boss' radar for a little bit longer. We're leaving the scans up to the midwife, since my progesterone test had come back fine I'm not worried there (sister had low Prog. so it was a concern).
Sleepy and feeling ick again... how am I supposed to maintain my weight properly if I need to eat all the time? What can I eat that will help keep me level? Any suggestions?
