1st Midwife Appt.

Had my first midwife appointment today finally :) Typical 1st appointment stuff, pee in a cup, get blood drawn, exam, and talk.

We talked about my still breastfeeding Ashlyn and she said to be prepared around 28 weeks for the possibility of having to wean her. She said with the history of my last 2 babies coming early she worries about me going...

Ashlyn has pneumonia =(

I took her in just over a week ago for a cough, was just a plain ole cold.

Took her in today and 4 hours after Motrin and 2 hours after tylenol her temp was still 102.5. They did chest x-rays and she has pneumonia in her left lung. Poor thing is just miserable,...

E.R. Visit

Haven't had much computer time so doing some updates now. On Sunday I spend 9 hours in the E.R. for them to tell me something they could have told me in less than 2 hours Had quite a bit of cramping and some bleeding so midwife wanted to rule out ectopic. Long story short, everything is ok. HCG was over 7,000, baby's heartbeat was 153. They wouldn't let me watch the ultrasound because I was sent from the E.R. so that sucked,...
