Almost a month later...same ol story I know its been awhile since I wrote, but I really didn't have a whole lot going on, EXCEPT...the dreaded headache returned, it started last Wednesday and by Friday I was in a lot of pain, I called the doctor and they suggested getting Excedrin Asprin free, all that is tylenol with caffiene, it took the edge off but it came back full force on Saturday evening, so I suffered thru the weekend and went in to the doctor at 11am on Monday, he ran some tests and found nothing and decided to send me home on narcotics and hope that I would be better when I woke up. I was completely out of it for 4 hours and when I woke up...the headache was still there. At this point I just figured I would suffer thru them and hope that when I hit my 12 weeks I would be in pregnancy bliss and headaches would be gone. I went all day on Tuesday with it and decided maybe caffiene will help it, went to Starbucks Tuesday night around 9pm and asked the girl at the window what has a good kick of caffiene but doesn't taste really coffee like, she hooked me up with a zebra, white chocolate and regular chocolate flavored coffee, it really took my headache down to a dull pain and now today I am headache free woo hoo. We will see what the next few days will bring :)

a bad week...
I started off Monday morning with a headache on the right side that made my whole face and gums hurt, I knew it was sinuses so when I went home I took some sinus meds and layed down. It didn't get any better so I decided to go to bed for the night and hopefully I could sleep it off....WRONG. I woke up at 3am with the worse pain yet and told Kevin I need something, I sent him with the list of approved meds and told him to pick whatever looked the best. He came back with two meds one was sinus headache the other liquid tylenol extra strength. I took the sinus headache and went back to sleep, 3 hours later I woke up and still was in the same pain and took two of the liquid gels, when I got up for work it was still there but not as bad as before. I called the doctor and he prescibed me a zpac because it was a sinus infection, I dealt with the headache all day...again, got the zpac, took it and layed down...again. The pain was still very persistent, as soon as Kevin came home I had him get me a heating pad to put under my face and went to bed, another awful night. The headache finally started easing by Wednesday, and was gone by Thursday, I finally had a good day on Thursday until night came, I got up 5x to go to the bathroom, I couldn't get comfortable, and I felt nauseous all night, I'm lucky if I even got 3 hours of sleep...hopefully the weekend will be much better.

My first appointment...boy oh boy!!! Well I had my first appointment today and it started with an ultrasound, you know because I wanted to rule out twins. Well as soon as the picture popped up on the screen it was obvious, there were two bubbles, yes we're having TWINS, at first we both sat with out mouths open and couldn't believe it, but as soon as we heard the lil heartbeats we were in tears and so excited. You can check out the ultrasound in the photo album. We have so much to do and think about before they come, but this is a blessing and God doesn't give you anything he knows you can't handle so this is trully a blessing. I go back to the doctor on April 17th, not another ultrasound until I'm 18 weeks.

can't wait for my first appointment I got an answer back from the doctor, my appointment was changed to March 20th, and will start with and ultrasound to see if I'm worried for nothing or not. It will be nice to know whether its one or two. My symptoms have been the same and I have come down with a lil cold starting yesterday nothing too bad. Today we are going thru the worst snow storm all winter...why am I still here at work?? Well at least I'm feeling good...for now. Later!
