Hi! I'm still sick. This sucks sooooo much. I just want to take NyQuil and sleep all day. But baby and toddler make that an impossibility. I do feel slightly better than I did but I would really like to be able to breathe normally.
I am relaxing and watching tv. G is at school and I have already done some cleaning. There is more that I can be doing I am just not feeling up to it.

marygracerich feel better! My doc said EmergnC is safe! It might help slow things down.

I have been drinking orange juice in hopes that the vitamin C will help but i ran out. 😭 Oh noooo yeah this is basically a mix of vitamins w a bunch of vitamin C. It's a packet you mix with water. I usually do maybe 6-8oz and chug it. I swear by it! I also have a huge list of safe meds for all kinds of things from my doc. I keep meaning to share it here. |

Feel better marygracerich! Bump from the weekend Poof And most of my last couple days has been consumed by getting everything ready to set up the nursery and get DS downstairs, he's been sleeping downstairs on the spare bed so he let us dismantle his actual bed and get his old room mostly cleared out yesterday! Ready for nursery to move in! Poof |

I also vouge for emergen-c. But I think it tastes gross so I do the gummies which are like candy. I take 3 every day in the winter. I just cleared it with my midwife so I need to get a bottle asap! |

So sweet of you to remember. We go home tomorrow. It's been an awesome awesome time. Lots of beach days, great weather, time with friends, a date night with H, outlet shopping, a day trip to Chicago. Everything a great vacation should be! We are on lake Michigan but the water seriously looks like we are on the carribean. These are from today.    |

Afternoon!! I'm surviving one day at a time, DH is still gone & no idea when he's coming back. Ughhh stupid navy. Haha. Currently in naptime hell w DD and learned she can open her bedroom door even with the little knob covers on so that sucks. She loves her new room though!! I can't remember if I posted a pic in here so I'll go find one. Here is a bump from a few days ago...on the left is me at 25w with DD, compared to this past weekend w DS (weird to say that now haha) At 22w6d. 23w2d now.  |

And here's DD in her new room! On the other side (where I'm standing to take the pic) will be the crib for little guy. Colors will be the same for him minus pink.   |

benandjerrys those pictures look awesome! You got very warm weather in these parts for your trip which helps with outdoor stuff. It will be nice to look back on this trip once you are no longer just a family of three!

So I posted about this in my other BMB but I ended up having a seizure while lecturing in front of 50 students yesterday. I stay conscious during daytime seizures so they were somewhat unaware other than I was likely blabbing and stalling because I couldn't read the screen. I didn't want to tell them what was going on at the time but I did post a little reminder/update type notice online because I wasn't sure I covered everything after it happened and I simply let them know I was having medical issues. It's not that I'm ashamed that I have epilepsy, I just don't want them worried that I'm going to pass out and go into convulsions on them. Heck, I didn't even announce that I was pregnant although it's extremely obvious now.  Needless to say, that wasn't a fun experience but I feel I handled it the best I could and tried to keep my composure. I'm used to my day seizures but I've never tried to navigate public speaking while trying to get my vision back so it seemed to last forever. I ended up going in for early lab work this morning to see if the med levels have dropped yet again. I'm starting to worry about if the baby will have withdrawals after delivery since I'm such an insane dosage so I may contact the pediatrician. I have mentioned it to/asked the neurologist and all they say is having me under control is #1 priority. I get that but I also don't want my newborn to go into a whatever symptoms. DS was fine but I'm on a higher dose now than with him. There's my dear diary post for the week. |

Oh man jessijean that's terrible. Epilepsy is so awful. It's smart to contact your pediatrician, that way at birth you and the medical team are more prepared to deal with the baby's withdrawal symptoms if need be. |

There is literally nothing new going on here. But I'm really going to start putting more effort into taking bump pics from here on out
Also just bought a new Lion King movie since it came out. It's my all time fav and I'm so excited to *hopefully* trade out finding dory and watch it on repeat for the next few months!
