Blog vs. Journal?

Wed, 23 Jun 2010 20:29:53 EST

OK, so I just left a journal entry. How is that different from a blog? I thought I was leaving an entry here, but apparently I didn't. Bummer. I don't feel like doing it all over again!

Anyone else want to back out?

As if we could, right?

Just for a few days. That's all. I guess I really don't want to back out of this pregnancy, not even for a few days. I just want to back out of the mundane-ness of my life for a few days. No kids to school, clean up after, cook for...and dare I say it? No husband to clean up after, cook for.....

I ADORE my husband. He's better to me than I deserve. I just don't want to be around anyone who needs me right now. At all. Nothing personal.

Limping along

Mon, 15 Feb 2010 09:26:38 EST

Anyone else just limping along in this pregnancy instead of thriving? We're doing OK, getting done what needs to be done, but not much more. So disappointing that I've never been one of those "I love being pregnant, I've never felt better" kind of people. I sat and wept last night. Why? Over a movie that wasn't even really that good (The Holiday) and the fact that we had to get rid of a couch that I loved. Yes, I cried over a couch. We got married in grad school, DH was a pastor after...

I'm walking again!

This pregnancy has been a kicker. I haven't been really sick like I was with my other pregnancies, but my energy level has been next to nothing. I kept waiting for the energy to come back....week 13, 14, 15....and just this week, week 20, I'm starting to feel slightly human again! Before now, it's been about all I can do to homeschool the kids in just the basics (nothing fun), keep on top of the wash and the cooking, and that's about it. Sign ups for homeschool co-op have come and gone an...

Another day...

So it's one day later and we have some answers. SOME. We're still responsible for the LabCorp bill, probably not responsible for the X-Ray bill, and definitely not responsible for the pediatrician's bill. I've never had such poor health insurance in my life. This is going to be one expensive baby. Lord, please, let us either be to 100% funded by then or let David have a job because otherwise I don't know how we're going to pay for this.

It feels good to be able to blog on here...

3 months later

Mon, 4 Jan 2010 16:06:49 EST

I'm finally adding another blog, 3 months later. This pregnancy has had its ups and downs. The last PG, we lost the baby, and I wasn't prepared for what that would do to the PG that come next. Like the not really believing it's true until you get the blood test. And even then not really believing it's true until you see the baby on the u/s. Or not really enjoying a day when you feel well because last time I started to feel better, it's because I had lost the baby and didn't know.

And it begins again

Like I said in my first post on a message board, I'm still a bit floored that I'm here. I can't believe I'm doing this again. People say you forget the the stuff that pregnancy brings, and between my first and second, NO WAY! I remembered every nasty bit of it. Sorry, people, I'm not a happy pregnant person. Nausea, vomiting, heartburn, I had it all. All that to say, that this time, I forgot. I forgot how insatiably hungry, how excrutiatingly tired and how irrationably irritable I beco...
