Nothing much has changed symptom wise...I'm still exhausted all the time, never feel very good, don't sleep well - I'm trying to imagine people who go through their whole lives feeling like crap (you know, those people who are never happy and always grumpy). I can't imagine not knowing there is an end to this!
I went on a search for a body pillow and Wal-Mart doesn't carry them....a friend told me Kohls has them, so hopefully I get to pick one up this weekend. I think it might help me sleep and cut back on the tossing and turning I do all night (so far I've ended up on the couch about 98% of the nights since I've been pregnant).
I'm beginning to wonder about this stomach - it's growing at what I feel is a "too fast" pace - Tomorrow I will be posting my first weekly belly picture (I'll take one each Wednesday and post each Thursday) - so you'll see what I mean. A week from today is my first ultrasound, I can't wait for the confirmation there is ONE baby in there and that everything is healthy and where it's supposed to be!!!
In addition to being pregnant - we are trying to sell our house, building our current house, I'm getting ready to have to compile and edit a huge project for class, I haven't done a bit of Christmas shopping....so I'm a little stressed. I'm trying to not let any of it bother me as much as it normally might though.
Have a great day!
I got mine at walmart on line.....try pregnancy pillow or maternity pillow. They have them!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED MINE!!!
I bought at Boppy Maternity Pillow from Target for like $45 (the cheapest i found it). I love, love, love it. You will apperiate it more as your belly grows. I have a regular body pillow at home and tried to use it before i bought the other pillow because I wanted to try to save some $$ but now that I have a real maternity pillow I won't go back. It's the best thing since sliced bread.
ReplyDeleteHey Dana! I was just going to give you a suggestion when it came to chosing a Pediatric Doctor. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Burrell at Capital Region. She is fantastic!!! She is fairly young and has two small children herself. So she can relate to any question you may have. Her nurses are great as well. If you call and have a question, they respond very quickly back to you. And when it comes to appointments, you never wait long in the waiting room because she is always on time/schedule!
ReplyDeleteMegan/Roxanne - I ordered one! Renee recommended the same thing!!
ReplyDeleteKelly - thanks for the recommendation! Is this where Renee works? Man, after my experience with Capital Region OBGYN I don't know if I want to go back in that building ; ) LOL.
