MomtoMandK's Diary-Getting my life BACK!

Hey guys....thought I would drop in and say hi. I've been so totally exhausted lately! It's awful! The exhaustion is totally different then my last 2 pregnancies and my appetite is soooo different! I can't even begin to tell you how hungry I have been!!!!!!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: I'll eat breakfast, have a snack a little later, and I'm still hungry before lunch. I ate supper last night and I was sooooooooooo hungry by the time we headed home!!?!?!?!?(finished the last of our Xmas shopping!!!) I have been nauseous, but totally different then my last pregnancies. I'm STARVING! lol....and not throwing up much at all! :D :D :D woohoo!

I gained ANOTHER 2" on my waist. I know it's a pregnancy, just hard to see after all my hard work!!! And wish I LOOKED pregnanct and not just fat! :( :eek:

Well I need to get my day started. My house is a mess and my MIL is coming over the day after Xmas. She is going to be in town for Christmas day, hasn't seen the kids in over a year, and isn't coming to see them at ALL ON CHRISTMAS!!!!!! The woman is insane! And informed us that in the WEEK she is going to be here that we'll probably only be seeing her once. Ridiculous! After complaining(last phone call) about how she never gets to see her grandkids, they don't know her, blah blah blah............... ok I'm done!

Off to get dressed! I'm STILL in my PJs!!!

You all are doing great!!! And I'm so proud of you!!!!!!

SS I'm sooooooooooooooo proud of you! You're doing fabulous! The weight is just falling off!!!!! Wish I could be losing with you! Love you!!!!! :D
 
Hey girlie! Don't stress about the weight, really...you have 2 babies in there! You're going to expand...or burst! :p You're a very dedicated and motivated woman once you give birth you'll be unstoppable. Keep your head up and enjoy the changes that your body is undergoing...you've got itty bitty lives in there! *such a beautiful thought*

Hey hon....I'm really sorry my mother is such a louse. And yes everyone..she is. It's pretty sad actually. This is pretty much the last christmas we're spending in the states..and she's not coming because "she hadn't planned on it". ??!?! WTF? I mean..these are your ONLY biological grandkids. ugh. Oh well...

I'm so proud of you hon with how you're doing with the pregnancy. And how you're keeping your eating on an even keel. Don't worry if your hunger has increased love... it's natural and don't deny your body what it wants. And I'm so glad that you're having more energy and less puking that before! That's so awesome! Also, thank you for supporting me and backing me with my goals... I know it's hard for you with me losing weight and you gaining with the pregnancy...but know that The support you give is AMAZING and I SO appreciate it hon...I love you so much!
 
I just thought I would look in on you after a while, and wow! Things have changed. Now you think it might be TWO babies? Well just keep eating as healthily as you can. Your weight may be going up at present but that's doesn't necessarily mean it will keep doing that the whole pregnancy. Mine stablilized later on when I went on a careful healthy diet for gestational diabetes - and then I got a lovely birth present drop in weight all at once to a new low. It's like putting your weight loss in the bank - you still get it back - just have to wait a while. (Us non-pregnant ones will have to do it a little at a time).
 
Oh my god. I dissapear for a couple weeks and I come back and your preggers!?!? Well MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!
 
AWWWW had to stop and check on my lil mommy2be I hope you get feeling better I miss ya!
 
Hey guys......I have been horrifically sick for the last 5 days :( Not enjoying life at all. I have lost 11lbs in the last little bit. I am now 1 lb lighter then I was before I got pregnant. Throwing up a lot, and just having a horrible timing eating in general!!!! It's been rough. Sometimes(well, most of the time lately)...I'm just not sure how I am going to get through this one.

I hope everyone is doing ok...I'm going to drag myself back over to my chair before my "snack" revisits me..... bleck!!!!
 
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST 2007 CAN BRING!!!

I hope you get less sick, been there done that and it sucks especially when caring for a family!!! I was pukin on the delivery table, LOL...Im sure it will get better...or maybe i should say i hope it gets better...
 
Thought I would share what happened the other day when we went to the ER(just copying and pasting from the pregnancy group I am a part of).......

Ok...so we went. Ugh.....that was the most hideous and LONG experience of my life!? We got to the ER at 1:00pm and didn't leave until 9:20pm!! In those HOURS of waiting we saw a Dr for MAYBE 4-7 minutes and that was TWO doctors and included an exam!

I got there and waited, then saw the first Dr. He did an internal....didn't saw how anything was or anything!? Really abrupt unapprochable time Sad I was NOT feeling well and somehow didn't say I wasn't feeling well, wasn't really keeping food down or water and that I had lost 12lbs in 1 1/2 weeks. I felt like SUCH an idiot! It was just this flury of questions and "move here" "scoot further". He JAMMED the speculum(sp?) up in there even after I told him I had a partial prolapse so everything was sitting lower then normal. That HURT!? He was literally in the room MAYBE 2 minutes and that included that exam!

We then sat there for a couple hours. They took me up to radiology(wouldn't let dh anywhere NEAR the room!) to do the sonogram. It took nearly 1 1/2 hours for all that. Ugh. It was awful! I saw the baby so far it's fine. It has a sac, it has a heartbeat. I saw it....no picture though. Sad

I went back down to the ER and we literally waited in our room for another 3-4 hours.

My first nurse had the bedside manner of a porcupine.......I'm sorry. She made me so uncomfortable. Very abrupt, and slightly annoyed. The second nurse acted nice enough, but made you feel like you were an inch tall. I was so embarrassed and felt so stupid by the time I got out of the room. She actually told me that I shouldn't have come in because "if you're going to miscarry, your going to miscarry. There's nothing we can do for you." and... "if it starts happening you should just stay home and miscarry there because(again) there is nothing we can do for you". She then found out that I hadn't gotten to tell the Dr that I was throwing up and having a hard time eating. Boy did she get annoyed. She said "You SHOULD HAVE TOLD THE DR!" that's more important then you spotting and the cramps! I was mortified. I tried to explain that I didn't have a chance and everything happened so fast, but she just kept saying that I should have told and it was more important........etc etc etc. Then right before I left she said "Next time tell the Dr that first....it's more important" ....OK....I GOT IT!?!?!?!? I understand that you think it was more important!? I wanted to burst into tears!? I NEVER want to go back there again! I hope Medicaid goes through soon so that I can get to a Dr and see how everything is, etc etc etc. Because they didn't even tell me the results of the ten million tests they ran!?

Oh yes, and they all see so annoyed that I hadn't gotten prenatal care yet and that I didn't have a Dr I was going to. Embarassed I'm trying! *sigh* It was a hard, long and FRUSTRATING day!

All in all it was essentially a "baby is fine, so sorry you sick, here's 5 days of meds if you want to fill the script and that might help you feel better, but best of luck to you"....pat on the back and out the door we were sent. I'm still not entirely sure how I am feeling.......My head is still kind of spinning....................

I am going to lay down. I'm exhausted and feel soooooooooooooo sick........ Sad Sad Haven't thrown up today yet, but struggling to get much down. I didn't get the script...it's for fennergin(sp?) suppositories and those are bloody expensive. I couldn't even kind of get them if I wanted to. So I will continue to do what I can. I am sticking to eating things that go down easily and I know will come UP easily.......


...what a joyous day that was....
 
Thought I would drop in a moment before I crash on my chair. I feel like hell....

I can't even think straight right now...sorry if this doesn't make sense or is disjointed.

I have lost 15.5lbs in 12 days. I am sitting at 286.5lbs. I feel so horrid. It's all I can do to feed the kids and keep my son's bum changed. Other then that I lay in my chair and/or throw up. I have NEVER been this sick before in my life. This is awful. I'm sure someone is going to get upset for me saying this but.....it was so bad the other day I was praying that something would go wrong..... I really don't know how I am going to handle this. I want to cry, but can't because it makes me soooo sick and/or throw up.

Ok.....my nausea is getting worse...I have to lay down.....

thanks everyone for everything.....

my dh has been wonderful. He does everything around here.....don't think he knows how much it all means to me.... I feel totally useless....

bye for now...
 
:eek: Hang in there! I'm sorry things are so tough for you right now! And for that awful experience! I hope you get to feeling better soon!!!
 
Oy, M, I hope you feel better soon. I can't even imagine. We had someone in town here who was sick like that for her whole pregnancy. Her baby was born a little small, but very healthy.
 
*HUGS* *GREAT BIG HUGS* Im sorry, I had it bad with my last pregnancy but not like what you are experiencing...I know your hubby is very concerned for you as I am...I really hope you start getting better soon...I know I give oyu a *BIG HIGH FIVE* When I was sick and prego it was all I could do to go to work and the parents at preschool totally helped me do everythign...there is no way ic oudl have cared for my children if they were younger like yours...*HUGS* You two are in my thoughts...

Hey Sweetheart... I just read your diary and hon... I know you feel like a bad person, but you're not... I see how nauseous you are and how bad it's gotten and progressively getting worse..and I wish there was more I could do for you.. I'm trying my best hon. And you're not useless... you're sick..huge difference. I love you, will be home as fast as I can when work is done...and I'm gonna take care of you okay? I love You and am giving you a kiss on your forehead right now. Talk to you soon hon...
 
Thanks for posting MtoMnK.

That hospital experience was terrible. How unfair!! Emergency departments seem to be like that - long waits and not enough time that helps. That nurse's advice sounds dodgy. It could be easily interpretted in a dangerous way, plus I bet she works with others who disagree with her. I think you absolutely did the right thing in attending and shouldn't be put off from seeking more help in future if you feel you need it.

This must seem like the longest time to you right now.

Thank goodness for SS. :)

You have no idea......this man is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me.

I had a HORRIBLE day yesterday. It passed in a haze of sleep, throwing up, keeping kids out of stuff and feeling sooo sick. He got home and took care of it all. He fed them, bathed them, washed the dishes, cleaned the living room.......it was such a relief. It was actually such a relief that I fell TOTALLY asleep. Was the most restful sleep I have had in awhile.......

Not feeling so hot again today, so I'm going to lay down again.........

Thanks again everyone
