Random

There are a few random things on my mind…
1. What are all these weird aches and pains in my abdomen?
2. Why am I so itchy?
3. When will I stop heaving? And, how much would I be heaving if I stopped taking diclectin?
4. Is Bubble a boy or a girl?
5. Am I ever going to start [...]

They’re back.

The dry heaves. And the sea sickies. You’d think that after 14 weeks they’d be gone for good. especially considering I’m still taking the anti-sicks.
But no…
My plan was to come off the drugs during week 15 but I’m rethinking that now. I wonder if I’ll feel this all the way through? I think there’s some [...]

Smart cookie

I’m feeling all smug tonight because I figured out how to make an mp3 of the baby’s heartbeat with very little trouble.
