The joys of being pregnant....

My sister-in-law gave me a pregnancy calendar. It is actually quite hilarious. It has quotes in it that say, "Pregnancy is the happiest reason ever for feeling like crap."  Those words are too true. I had a lovely visit to the ER yesterday. I was dehydrated bad enough I couldn't stand without coming close enough to pass out. I promise I drink water 10 times a day, but yesterday it wasn't enough. I also have had an infection for a while with absolutely no symptoms of one. The doctors couldn't figure it out. Because I was dehydrated, I had to have an IV. Have I mentioned how much needles freak me out? The nurse was very nice, but it still hurt like crazy.

I got to see the baby again. The doctor wanted to make sure the baby was doing OK. She was actually amazed because my baby posed perfectly for it. She couldn't stop staring at the screen. She was in the middle of showing me when the battery died. When they finally got the machine plugged in, the baby had moved and was no longer posing amazingly perfect. After that the baby wouldn't hold still for anything. It was kinda funny. It made it an interesting ER visit and the horrid IV worth it.

A mostly good day, YAY!!

I woke up, lazed about a bit, took Jon to work, got to hang out with my best friend for a little while before she had to cater, saw a movie, and now I am waiting for Jon to get off of work. Poor guy is stuck there until late. Bad day at work for him.

BTW if anyone is actually reading this that knows me, do not say that horrid nickname for my unborn child. I have told my mother exactly how upset I am over that stupid name and all she does is laugh in my face. I thought she could at least have a little bit of respect for my wishes on the matter but all she does is tell her friends and laugh about it. I told her I would quit speaking to her if she didn't stop it. Again all I get is laughter. I was having a good day and then all the irritation at my mother for her idiotic notions pissed me off.

Also, The Sorcerer's Apprentice was a neat movie. A little predictable, but still a good movie.

Warning: This is not a happy post!

I can't seem to find a balance. I was happy this morning, and then I switched. I have irritated most of the day. Honestly, this time I think I have a reason. I think I have all rights to be irritated when your husband tells you that you look like you could be Two-Face's wife. Even if he said it jokingly, I think that was taking it a little far. If he tells me all the time that I am beautiful, but then turns around and tells me things like this, which am I supposed to believe? It is not the first time, either. I didn't want to have anything to do with him today. I was hurt more than anything. When he couldn't figure out why I was upset until I explained it to him in detail, I was irritated. Someone tell me that I am not justified and I might believe you.

Oops... forgot something

I forgot to mention how my first doctor visit went. It was at 8:00am at University Hospital with Dr. Burns. I had my first sonogram and Jon was with me. He got to see it move and dance around. He was happy but still on the verge of freaking out. I was happy and excited. So far everything is going perfectly. My next visit they are going to do the blood work to check and make sure everything is OK. I think that covers everything. If not I will end up adding more later.

WOW.... I forgot I had a blog!

I seriously forgot I had a blog. My friend who actually inspired me to blog in the first place reminded me. I actually used to work for her. I worked for her during her entire pregnancy. I can really sympathize with her now. Apparently, the consensus from everyone I know who was pregnant says the baby sucks out your brains. I used to harass her about freezing me out of the office when she came in. It was all in good fun and she knew it, but I still had to bring a jacket to work even in the summer. I completely understand now.

I am roasting in the house and my husband, who is from Canada by the way, is freezing. He keeps turning off the fans or the A/C in the middle of the night. I got fed up and told him I was going to rip the switch off the wall if he did it one more time. Then I got emotional and apologized to him for snapping while I was sobbing horribly. He was perplexed and didn't know how to respond because this all happened in the span of maybe 30 seconds.

I feel like a psychotic person because I can't seem to either keep a thought in my head. If I am not forgetting something then I am thinking that my world is ending because I can't find something in the grocery store.

I never saw my boss go crazy, but I did hear about it. If the way I feel now is the way she felt then I applaud her for keeping her composure so well. I only ever heard of her losing her composure very few times during the nine months she was pregnant.

You might notice from some of my earlier postings that I sounded a pissed off and emotional. That is hopefully not going to be the norm. I wrote those when I was so sick, tired, and pissed off because I couldn't manage to ever stop the nausea. Thankfully, I am mostly passed that.  I expect that I will still have some emotional postings, but I will try to keep the craziness to a minimum.
