Weeks 16 & 17

Weeks 16 & 17 have proved to be much harder!


Last week, I started getting sick...some sort of cough/cold/chest congestion.  Of course, being pregnant, as if you don't have enough to worry about, this scared me to death.  I called my doctor 3 times last week and they advised me to continue taking Mucinex and wait 7 days to see if it went away.  On the 8th day, they agreed to see me, only because I sounded so awful, they were worried about my lungs.  Once I got to the doctor they checked my temperature and my oxygen level and said I was fine...I was miserable.  They said to wait 7 more days and if it didn't go away they would give me some medication.  That same day my sweet Mama came over to clean and cook for me.  That seemed to be the best medication of all!  I started getting better after that.  Amazing what Mama's can do!  =)


Week 16


Other than that, my pregnancy has been so good.  Once I got out of my first trimester I started sleeping SO much better.  I have a renewed energy.  I even told my doctor, that I probably shouldn't complain, but I don't even feel pregnant.  She told me..."Just wait..." haha!  I am sure I will start to feel very pregnant, but I have been so so so so so very blessed.  I am sure it has to do with all the prayers you guys are putting up for me.  The main difference in my sleep is that I no longer get up 10-12 times to pee pee.  Now, it's more like 1-2 times, but the pee pees last FOREVER.  Sometimes, I fall asleep on the toilet!  I haven't really had any cravings, besides fruit and veggies, which is good for Mommy and Baby.  


Week 17


Continue to pray for us, Lord knows we need it!
