I’ve gotten a few inquiries about my well-being on account of the fact that I haven’t been posting. So let’s get the most important bit out of the way – yes, I’m okay. Yes, I’m still pregnant.
I’ve had an upper respiratory infection and there’s also been Passover taking up my time, so I haven’t been online much. There’s also the fact that there’s really nothing to say – things are pretty much status quo. Still on insulin, still not keeping food down. Still getting IV fluids and medications. Now also have carpal tunnel syndrome (well, I’ve had CTS since I was 15, but it’s been excruciating in the last month or two), and, you know various other irritating things. But I’m still pregnant. I now get weekly NSTs and weekly BPPs. Bed Rest, Shmed Rest, right?
People keep telling me that I’m in the “home stretch”, like that’s supposed to make me feel better. It doesn’t. I know that makes me a bitter old hag, but it doesn’t make me feel better. I don’t care if I’m due in two months or two days or two hours – until it’s OVER and the baby is on the OUTSIDE, it’s still not any fun. I will be happy when this pregnancy is behind me. And yes, I do still fully accept the title of bitter old hag.
Honestly can’t think of much else to say.
glad to hear from you… i’ve been thinking about you… when we were getting ready for Pesach, i remembered how your oven broke last year!!!
Thinking of you.
You have a right to be busy with four kiddos plus Passover around 🙂 Glad to hear from you though! I figured if something were wrong you would post so rest up (are you tired of that?) and counting down for B-day 🙂
When I was pregnant with my daughter (about 6 months, I think) someone said “home stretch” and I remember really wanting to smack them. You just made me remember that.
🙂
Glad you are right side of ok …..
Been thinking about you so glad you posted to let us all know you’re still doing as best as you can.
PS- What is the one food you’re looking forward to when you can eat again? Or maybe nothing even sounds good right now still?
There you are! No – good update. I’m glad things are under control, even if there’s a lot of control needed for it to be under… if you know what I mean.
