*I have been a bad blogger because I have felt so bad. I have updated with 5 new short posts to get updated again. So scroll down and start with the November 24 post to get caught up from the beginning.*
The baby looked great which is the important thing. Heartbeat was 159 and it was standing on its head. We got a cute picture of it.
I woke up to such extreme dizziness that I had to grab onto the wall to even walk plus I am still throwing up the little amounts of crackers and Gatorade that I had managed to sneak down in my stomach. Guess I wasn’t so sneaky after all. It appears the dehydration has already set in. My doctor prescribed me a pill to take 3 times a day and anal (yay! just what I wanted! sarcasm, sarcasm, sarcasm) suppositories to help with the vomiting. I start with the suppositories since I can’t keep down any pills right now, which is scary because my body still depends on them to support the baby. He said we would start with this and hopefully I could stay out of the hospital for dehydration. Really comforting thought. His thoughts were that now that the baby has gotten bigger and my natural hormones are finally kicking in (this happens later with IVF patients) the sickness began. He said the bleeding could continue for months but to let him know when it happens so they can check me just in case it is something serious. We go back on Monday for our regularly scheduled ultrasound.

I am so thankful that everything is alright with you. I will keep you in my prayers. I'm sure everything is going to work out for y'all and y'all will have a beautiful, healthy baby. I can't tell you how much of a blessing your blog is to me. Me and my husband can relate to some of the things y'all are going through. There's just something comforting knowing you're not the only one out there that is having difficulties having a baby. I think God gives us these obstacles because #1 He knows we can handle it and # 2 we can help others that are going through the same things..to pull each other along. I appreciate your blog and I wish y'all nothing but the best.
God Bless Y'all.
