This sucks, so I have been having really bad pains in my side for about a week. Last week when it started I called my doctor and they told me at my stage in the pregnancy the baby is growing really fast and the muscles on my side are stretching. So they told me to take a warm bath and try some Tylenol. But nothing was helping. After about two days of the pain it finally went away. So I had a good week end and I didn't think anything of it. But Monday it started again and Tuesday I woke up in so much pain I couldn't take it anymore. I called the doctor and got an appointment to see him. Something was wrong and I know it! So I went and saw him and he checked me and said everything looks okay so he sent me to an ultra sound. Yesterday I went in to the ultra sound and I got to see my little baby again, still don't know what I'm having. It's getting so big. I'm so glad I got to see it again but the tech said everything is great. The baby is growing right, the uterus is fine, and the placenta looks great. So the only thing they could think of was that along the left side of a pregnant women's side is where your colon stretches. So they think I have gas or maybe a small block in it. They started my on Gas X and a RX to help. Since I started taking it I haven't had to may problems so I think that was what was wrong. I feel so much better! Yeah! I have never heard of anyone being in this much pain during pregnancy. I was crying so much and i couldn't even take care of Zoe. Sad. I'm glad I feel better. I'll have to post some of the ultra sound pictures later.

I can't believe it. Today I have been on line looking for stuff for Zoe's Birthday. She will be two in just a few weeks. She came over to me and started talking. I had to stop and take it all in. I can hold a conversation with her! I'm in awe. I can't believe how big she is and how smart. After being so happy, now I am so sad. My baby is getting big.

I don't get it!?!?

When I was pregnant with Zoe I had the best health I have ever had. I was never sick with a cold or anything like that. It was the first Christmas in years that I was not sick. But for some reason with this pregnancy I keep getting a cold! I'm so sick of being sick. I am just getting better from a cold right now and I hope I don't get anymore. It's so had to be sick in the first place but then to be pregnant on top of it and a stay at home mom. It's not like I can just stay in bed and get better, I have to get her feed and dressed and now she loves to get on the counter! :-) This pregnancy is way different than the last, that's for sure!

Oh yeah, I have been sick so I haven't had the chance to update about the baby. It kicks so hard now that you can see it! I'm only 22 weeks and 4 days but it's strong! Matt felt it kick around Christmas but now he doesn't have to feel for it, he can see it. It also moves all the time! I don't even know when it rests because it seems like it is always kicking or turning. I love it! I am really going to miss that part of being pregnant.
