fun facts for today…ok not really fun at all

Posted on 3/6/2006 by Amy
  • bo is sick, really sick….he’s done nothing but lay around all day with a fever that goes away after tylenol but comes back right at the 4 hour mark for a new dose, but he is loving his diet of broth and popsicles, no really he loves soup broth, he’s a strange kid I know UPDATED: around 11 pm Boaz’s fever spiked to 103.6!  My poor little guy is so miserable!  
  • i lost 2 1/2 lbs since my last appt, um that was just this past Thursday! I am still having higher than normal fasting levels along w/ spilling ketones in my urine so what’s the mean, more insulin and more stress UPDATE:  sugar levels normal for once, still spilling ketones for some reason
  • dean has an appt tomorrow to discuss taking care of our fertility problems, you know to ensure not getting pregnant again!
  • bo has an appt tomorrow for what should be his 15 month check up but will really be to determine if he’s got another ear infection or something, he’s only been off meds for about a week and half
  • my grandmom is in the hospital after a fall yesterday that she denies happened, and now the drs are thinking she has bone cancer and are waiting test results to find out if it is that and that’s holding up their possibly doing surgery for the damaged bone; chances are she will be in the hospital for quite a while, phrases like “this could be the beginning of the end” never sounded so insincere til it affected someone in my family
  • i am so stressed out I am having trouble sleeping, and if I do manage to get to sleep my darn alarm clock goes off around 3 am to remind me to get my butt out of bed, check my sugar and eat a snack, yes freaking 3 am. then I have to try to get my brain to shut up and stop stressing over all the crap going on so I can get back to sleep, it’s no wonder I almost fell asleep driving twice today.
  • as if my body heard me telling a friend how the drs never were able to diagnose if I had MS or not, and never figured out what was causing my facial tingling/numbness that had continued into the first trimester then faded in the second trimester, well it’s back and almost non stop, today it feels so bad that if I didnt keep looking in the mirror I’d think my face was swollen just because it feels so odd, the ob said to check w/ the neurologist but that chances are they wont do anything since they cant do any tests now and with being so close to delivery they would probably just wait but did add that if it is MS that it will get worse during the post partum period, gee, i get to look forward to this getting worse as well as probably having post partum thyroid problems again, makes me wonder if i’d rather deliver and not be pregnant and deal w/ all of that or just deal w/ all of this other pregnancy crap
  • is it Friday yet?
  • and you were wondering why I am so stressed…..
  • UPDATED to add ONE REALLY FUN FACT :  one month from today, March 7th is April 7th when my c-section is currently scheduled for!! so at most just a month til baby # 3 is here!!
