Baby Battle!


Okay, so I had a good weekend…if you cancel out my face looking like i have been beaten….and Ive been nauseated pretty much every minute of the day.
Friday night we headed down to Topsail to get out of Raleigh. The car ride was okay, i relaxed and caught some zzz’s. When we finally arrived i was so ready to crawl in bed. The good thing was our bedroom at the beach house has a king size bed!! In love!! When i sleep…i enjoy taking up the entire bed. At home we have a queen size bed…and well its just not cutting it. We will be investing soon in something that we can be more comfortable in…not soon enough though! Anyway i slept like a champ..except for the next morning i got up at 7 because i thought i was going to throw up everywhere…tmi? lol. So i was awake the entire day…well on the couch just plain nauseated…i ate..i would get nauseated…i would throw up…then i would eat..etc.etc.etc. its just horrible! Ive been crying nonstop because i just feel terrible! My mom reassured me that the 1st trimester is usually like this..but that it usually means that the baby is healthy when mommy is sick all the time…my baby must be SUPER healthy lol.
Anyway got home from the beach today and my mom, who has been SO supportive through all this made me a pot of homemade vegetable beef soup and baked bread! It is SO good! I was totally craving something home cooked after the crap i ate yesterday. I love my mom, i really do. It meant so much to me that she would do that and come over and visit with me for a while. She is going to be the best gma in the world…i just know it!
……..Anyway, i sent Jackson to the grocery to buy some sugar..because i was making sweet tea…then found out all my sugar is gone…um remind me to NEVER send him to the store again. OMG! The food that he brought home is like what a stoner/college kid dreams of. He got pure junk! chips, cookies, more cookies, sugar drinks..just plain junk. I was like um…thanks for getting groceries :/ def. the last time he does that.
This Wednesday I have my first ultrasound! Tomorrow i train my replacement..pretty exciting week ahead of me :) Happy Sunday!
Omg! So happy that today is Friday! I could just scream! I have good news…i think? So my allergic reaction..is on my face…and that’s it. Ive been trying to think about what could be causing this…and the only thing that I can think of would be my Aveeno products that I have been using. I figured Aveeno since its all natural (or claims to be…but looking at the ingredients..i beg to differ) that it would be okay for my sensitive skin. I think I have been wrong. Apparently what I have been using has 1. a weird mushroom extract…and 2. some other extract from the woods? I dunno..but that is the only thing that i can think would be causing this. I use Aveeno for my face wash, daily moisturizer, and night cream…they are getting 86ed very quick! Back to Sensitive Olay for me…(If anyone has any suggestions I would be very appreciative) :)
As for the weekend…we will not be going to the fair this year…just to many germs, and since Im preggers well I dont want to be around all the grossness. Maybe next year..I WILL miss my corn, and dougnuts, and hotdogs, and fries, and funnel cakes…and the list goes on lol. But I will be okay.maybe.?
Jackson and I are going to do a mini vacation and go to the beach. I need a break from Raleighwood…everything here is making me nauseated..along with my house…i just need a change of scenery! So we will be leaving after work today! I am very excited…the beach is usually very dead around this time of year…so it will be nice to pretty much not do anything..take in the beach, and enjoy the ocean air..sounds wonderful to me.
So…something is seriously wrong with me…and I cannot put my finger on what is the cause of this. It started for the first time before Labor Day…I woke up and my eyes were swollen and my ears itched..and I had red spots on my forehead and all around my eyes..it itched…and hurt it was absolutly horrible! I went to 3 different doctors and nobody could figure out what caused this reaction. My doctor had prescribed me Ultram a while back for if my cramps got too severe for Tylenol/Advil etc. So i thought that maybe it was that, since I had taken it the day before. They put me on steroids and all these other pills…it was a mess.
Well lets jump to Sunday…Sat. we went to the UNC/Miami game …and everything was fine. The next day…i started seeing the spots and the sores around my mouth etc…and automatically knew what was going on. So I went to the doctor first thing Monday morning and he said yes, its an allergic reaction. To what?? I have no clue, I havent taken the Ultram since the LAST reaction that i had. Anyway again, I am on steriods, and creams trying to get this to go away.
I also wanted to get a second opinion, so I went to my dermatologist…what a joke! He said, it looks like poison ivy….seriously? poison ivy? I couldnt even remeber the last time that I was outside in the woods to get poison ivy, and not to mention…its only on my FACE! He is an idiot…end of story.
So has anyone ever had this to them…its obviously something Ive eaten..or done? But i haven’t changed any makeups…or lotions, or detergents…im so confused! Not to mention, I cannot wear makeup and it looks like i have leprosy…loveeee it!
So 3 weeks ago i sent my wedding ring..and engagement ring off to get cleaned and just allll pretty again…and guess what?!?! They FREAKIN lost my rings! Thank GOD we have insurance on them…but still…glad the whole sentiment is gone…OVER IT!
BIG NEWS! I will get back with you on the 26th :)
Oh so excited! We will be in town this weekend!! Which is SO nice..i am very excited about just relaxing and being at home and in town!!
Ive already started dinner :) Pulled chicken in the crock-pot yummy! I LOVE the convenience of a crock-pot! you put it in in the am…its done when you get home from work! I am hoping that tonight Jackson and I have a low key night…I haven’t really gotten to see him too much, since he has been slammed at work :( So…tonight im hoping we can eat dinner, open some beers(Micky Ultra for me…beer of champions lol), and chilllllax! That to ME sounds like a GREAT Friday night!!!

OMG so cute!!!
