June 6, 2000

Well, I almost forgot to do my entry this week. I hope I made it. We had our first OB appointment last week, but then went back for an ultrasound on Friday to see why my uterus felt so big. It turned out to be nothing, I guess. We were hoping they'd say we had twins, but there was just one little peanut on the screen. We did get to see the heartbeat, and the baby measured a few days ahead, so they moved my due date up to 12/21 now.

I'm almost 12 weeks, I just can't believe it, it really does go by quicker the second time around. I still feel yucky off and on, but hopefully that will clear up once I leave my first trimester. I think my migraines are going to be returning though. I talked with my OB about that, she doesn't want me taking my usual medication, all I have now is Tylenol with codeine and then Demerol if they get bad. I have a feeling there will be a few trips to the ER again!

Sidney is doing pretty good. It's so darn hot right now, we don't have air so we do a lot of tossing and turning at night. She's still nursing just the two times, and actually not puling at my boobs quite so much anymore. It is helping the soreness a little, they don't hurt quite so bad since each side is actually only getting used once a day.

I still don't have any day care kids, I just give up, I guess. I wish we could move anyway, you should see these neighbors of mine in this duplex ... ugh!!!! They keep us up at night too, it's a big mess. I would love to move, but I would need to get a job if we did, I need to be working anyway. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed something comes along.

OK, I better run, my grandma is trying to buy a new place and wants us to tour one she found. Many hugs and happy nursing!!!!
