Dehydration

So after battling a virus for almost a week it won and I ended up in the hospital to get IV fluids.....I just stayed about 6 hours and they pumped me full of 3000 mL's of fluid and potassium and sent me on my way. My WBC count was elevated which is a little cause for concern but I am feeling better and the cramping and contractions are gone so hope that did the trick. According to my urine and lab work I was pretty dehydrated, I follow up with my OB on Wednesday and I'm gonna take it easy for the next few days.....I have to keep him in there at least a few more weeks!

Doctor apt

Went to the doctor today....things were not so good I'm having a little trouble with ketones and protein in my urine so she is watching me fore preeclampsia.....hope it doesn't develop but I am not feeling so hot. I am having uterine irritablilty (cramping) and some nausea so we are watching close and going in to see her weekly now. I didn't gain any weight but I am sure it's becuase I haven't felt much like eating lately. Hope things get better! On a positve note he is now head down and that is a relief!

Maternity photos!

Here are some of our maternity photos! They are great!

Baby Shower

The baby shower was a hit! Thanks to everyone that came! We had a great time! Now we have to sort through all our goodies! Fun fun!

Maternity photos!

We had our maternity photos taken yesterday and we can't wait to see them....I will post them just as soon as I get them. Just 4 days until the baby shower and just 9 weeks and 4 days til he's here!

30 weeks!

We are 30 weeks today! (7.5 months) I'm feeling the effects of the last trimester I tell ya, I am tired all the time and have an endless desire to eat....it's almost time just 10 weeks to go. For the past week or so I have been having some heart palpations so my OB doctor recommended I see a cardiologist so we have an appointment with him on Monday and are hoping it's nothing major and just pregnancy related. And we have our OB doctor's appointment on Tuesday and lets hope he flips soon so we don't have to have a c/s. We are getting maternity pictures done on Monday as well and our baby shower is a week from today so we have a busy week ahead of us. We are expecting a lot of friends and family and I am so happy. We are leaving for KY on Thursday!

Doctor's appointment.

So today went well, had my gestational diabetes test and will await the results. Gained some more weight so that is good total 17lbs now (not thrilled about that with 80 days to go but oh well). From here on out we see Dr. Lowe every other week. It's getting close!
