Well yesterday we had our second ultrasound at the doctor’s appointment. I am glad to know that Vince is already head down getting into position!! Those are great news!!!!! Also we found out that he is only about 5 lbs something (almost 6 pounds) and from now to birth he will put only 1/2 pound a week, meaning that he will be a regular 7 lb baby by the time of birth!!! WONDERFULL NEWS FOR MOMMY!!!!!!!!! Everything looks great they told as. They lower my dosage of steroids, now only 6 pills a day.... and I will have to keep drinking them until delivery other wise Puppps will came back again (for the record never went away it is just mild and I can deal with it) At delivery they are going to inject me with a Strees steroid shot or something like that.....

Well everything good!!! Trying to move in all this mess...... I posted same pictures!

Its been a week since I have Puppps and it is terrible!!! I do not wish this over nobody..... it is painful and it makes me crazy!!!! to the point that I do not enjoy my pregnancy anymore and I feel that my baby will came out all stress out because of it. Well yesterday I went to the dermatologist and he prescribed Prednisone 5mg. to me....  I was scared for my baby and I asked him several times the outcomes of the steroids. He told me that he study in deep Puppps in the university where they will do conferences about cures and Etc. and the conclusion was that steroids do not harm the fetus. Even then I was skeptical so I called my childhood doctor (in ) I've know her for over 24 years and she is a very respectful pediatric in Argentina. She assure me that steroids will not harm the baby, but she did not recommended to take them more than a week. She also said that if they have to accelerate my delivery the steroids will also accelerate the baby's longs development. After that I called my OBGYN and he also assure me that prednisone does not affect the baby at all and that this type of steroid does not cross the placenta.... well.... so I gave it a shot! I took yesterday as directed. 4 at 5pm and 4 at 11:30.... and.... AFTER A WEEK I FINALLY GOT SAME REST!!!!!. still itches a little bit but nothing like before.... this morning I took another 4 and my next 4 I have to take them at dinner time. On Monday I have an appointment with my OBGYN and he will determined if they have to lower the dosage. Let me tell you... I tried everything... from benadryl (which will put my baby to sleep... he would not move for hours and I did not like), I tried Aveeno bath treatments, which help for the time being in the bath, I tried Sarna cream which actually helps for around 1 to 2 hours.... but gives me cold chills....

so... this help me and I very happy now!

Thanks!!!!

Vince I see you in a about 3 to 4 weeks

Well, yesterday I tried an aveeno bath treatment.. it felt good so I am going to do another one today after work.... The bad thing is that last night my upper legs itched like crazy and they did not let me sleep.... I woke up around 10 times scratching like crazy, putting cream on my legs and belly and crying for a cure!!!!!!! I am not sure how I am going to deal with this another 1 to 2 months.,.... toooooo much.....

I called the doctor today and he referred me to a dermatologist who I have to call again at 1 pm to see if they can fit me in today at 2:30 other wise the secretary told me that they do not have anything until next Thursday!!!! What!!!!! By next Thursday I will be dead desperate!!!! I need same answers today!!!!!!! I will post same pictures of my nasty skin just to remember... I know once Vincent is born I will forget all about this rash.... so ....

It is funny, but I have no clue why people tent to see me and touch my belly automatically.... I don’t mind when is my close family or even friends.... but everyone at work seem to feel that they are free to do it.... I NEVER care before until now... I guess it is my fault because I let them do it before and now with PUPPS I have to stop people because as soon as they touch me I start to itch,,,, they see me and they go straight to my belly and there I am screaming NOOOOO please!!!! it itches!!! Sorry!!!! I have to be watching people movements now.....  Even Gus’s movements, cause He too likes to touch my belly (understandable is his soon) but now I can not afford not even one touch!!!! Tomorrow I will be 35 weeks I hope Vincent decides to come at least by the 37 or 38 week so I do not have to wait the full term!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!
