Dr. Visit #3
We had our 3rd (4th week) visit today. I am 12 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Things went great and our baby's heartbeat was 160bpm. So, its still as strong as ever. I have been suffering from severe sinus problems and have not been able to breathe at night. The pressure has been unbelieveable. I have tried the meds on my "list" and of course none of them do a thing except the Afrin, and who wants to get addicted to that? lol. Tylenol Sinus doesn't even touch the problem, and I can't take Sudafed because of the ephedrine in it. It makes me feel too weird. I know you all are probably thinking, that I'm nuts for taking anything. But I have followed my ok'd medication list, nothing has worked and I am desperate. I didn't want to take anything, but waking up gagging because I can't breathe is not fun! So, good ole' Dr. S. gave me a script for Flonase. Lets pray that it works. He told me that I needed something, and that I didn't need to be miserable. Erik and I enjoyed lunch at none other than Benihana, and then I gave in and went to Motherhood to by some of those "elastic waist britches" as Erik calls them. LOL! Folks, the rubber band thing is NOT FOR ME! I am pass that point anyway. I was so relieved when I tried on my new jeans and they didn't squeeze me in half. They were oh so comfy and fit like a glove. God bless those people who finally realized that there are petite people out there!

The love of our lives was born on 8.13.09 and is the light of our lives. Mills is our happy, busy, typical little boy, who never slows down. He is a huge fan of Moose and Zee, Handy Manny and Mickey Mouse and loves playing with his "big-brother-dog," Joey. There is not a day that goes by that I don't look at this precious miracle given to us by God and sit in awe.

welcome to the world of motherhood, elastic pants and your hips never returning to their original position. There's nothing like it!
Congratulations on reaching the "I'm past the first trimester" milestone! Welcome to the world of elastic waistbands! Now, call me when parts north of your waistline get bigger...I have a personal funny story I'll share with you!
Congrats!!! Hearing the heartbeat is so comforting. And the maternity pants, VERY COMFORTABLE!!! I wondered why I didnt wear them all the time! ha ha!!
Bless your heart, I hope you find relief in that Flonase!!
