today…….

Sooooo, today was a looooooong day.
So, my “official” OB appointment.
I get there, the first appointment of the day…..and they are late.
Anyway, so I pee in a cup, get the “your pregnant” packet, and then wait in the waiting room again.
Finally, I saw the midwife, we go over my history and my weight(yes, I am gaining [...]

9 weeks 5 days.

So tomorrow is my “official” OB workup appointment.  God am I glad I made it for this week and not for next.  I don’t think i would have been able to make it that long with my sanity in tact.
Nothing new symptom wise to report.  The morning sickness has slowed down considerably.  As long as [...]

where are my symptoms?????????????

of course, I am freakin out today.
I feel like my symptoms are going away.
Last time, I didn’t pay attention when this happened.  I was so excited to be feeling “good” for a change.
Sooo, this morning, the girls:not sore. I poked and poked.  Nothing.
Not so tired either. Not so gassy, and I don’t have to pee [...]

What if I POAS tomorrow and it’s negative?
What if I go to the doctor a few weeks from now and there is no baby or no heartbeat on the screen?
Again?
What [...]

Discoveries……..

I remembered something today while at work.
I am a Labor and Delivery Nurse.
Do you know what that means?  It means that I have unlimited access to sono machines, Doppler’s, fetal monitoring equipment……….
You see where I am going with this.
The bright light went off over my head when I got called down to recovery room to [...]

10 WEEKS

A PRUNE!?!?!?! WTF?
Just taking it one week at a time. 
New Pregnancy symptom: WAY too much gas.  This is really embarrassing…………..but ironic!

job searches

Sooo.  I have a job interview today.  Over the phone.  Now.  Let me just say that usually, over the phone interviews are reserved for when I do travel nurse assignments, not “I live in your city, approximately 5 miles away” interviews.  Hmmmm.  It’s a small hospital.  Or at least, it’s a smallish unit.  I really [...]

break it down……

You know, last night, I finally had to break it down to C-Dub. 
He had been making snide little comments about the amount of time I have been sleeping.  I finally had to break it down to him that I am dead tired! Sure, I didn’t work at all this week, but hey, I am making [...]
