Six Weeks Tomorrow

Tough weekend man...Well I won't go into any gory details but both Saturday and Sunday were very bad tummy days. Tien and I had a great lunch on Saturday. Afterwhich I commented on how great I felt after such a good meal. About 5 minutes after that I was in shocking pain and needed to get home asap. By the time I was home, I was dripping in sweat, feeling faint and in intense pain. All was good after I got home and visited the bathroom (it's me, I can't avoid all the gory details). On Sunday, Tien and I went to the Easter Show. I thought it would be the perfect easy day. It turned out to be a bit rougher than I expected. I'm sure the nasty food there didn't help things and I ended up walking a bit more than I was up for - lower back tweaked as well. Anyway, that night I had painful stomach cramps with poor Tien up at 4am Googling what medication I could take. It turned out we weren't comfortable with me taking anything we had at home. Tien made me some peppermint tea and Echinacea/Eucalyptus Oil lozengers which helped a bit. I ended up with bad tummy problems until after 7am so was exhausted by then. I went to sleep and didn't wake up until my phone rang and startled me up at 11:15am. I think I'm back to normal now. :)

Other funny story....I bought a home pregnancy test even though there's no question that I'm pregnant at the moment. I've just had so many negative tests that I wanted to experience the feeling of doing that test and seeing it come up positive. As silly as it sounds, it felt GREAT to see it!!

  1. Sounds like you're already having a rough pregnancy! Yep, stay away from all meds if possible but keep a good stash of panadol on you just in case :)

    Eventhough pregnancy sucks, I am very happy for you guys and it's well worth the suffering in the end! (Then a different kind of suffering takes over ;) )
