I AM SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!!!! WOHOO!!!! since yesterday actually, I can eat,(and things actually sound good) play with Chloe, go to the store, clean my house, and get out of bed!! Last week on the other hand, was not so good, it got really bad! I couldn’t keep anything down, not even water! so I called the doctors office, they said to come in asap! they checked my weight,(total since day 1..-20lbs. in 1 week…-9 lbs) yea, not so good, they checked for something called ketones ( not so sure what those are, but apparently I tested positive with the worst that it could be, I didn’t ask cause at the moment I didn’t really care about anything except feeling better) so they brought me into another room and hooked me up to an IV. I was so dehydrated they couldn’t get a vein. I had 1 liter at the office and they sent me home with the 2nd, so I’d be more comfortable. Vince got to be a doctor for the day, every 6 hours he had to flush the IV catheter with some saline and some meds so my blood wouldn’t clot ( he did really good, he should have been a doctor!) then I went back to the doctor on Wednesday morning for 1 more liter, now I am hydrated and feeling so good! they told me if I get sick like that again to call before it gets that bad!
Vince is in Portland right now training till tomorrow night, he left Yesterday morning at like 5am. I’m glad I’m better so I could take care of Chloe, take her to school and give her some attention. We had a full day today, school (toddler lab, she calls it school) was at 8:45-10am she usually is up around 7:30 so I didn’t bother to set an alarm, but she woke up at 8 so we had to rush out the door. After school we went grocery shopping, 11 we had a play group at our clubhouse till 1, then nap then we had a bithday party at 6 we got home and she crashed.
These past couple days have been pretty nice for Rexbug, the sun was shining, about 40 degrees, the snow was melting, and guess what I woke up to this morning? Snow. Yuck! it was more of a slushy rain/snow that left about an inch everywhere, I guess there’s supposed to be more tomorrow, but hopefully it won’t be a ton, and it will melt fast. I am so ready for warm weather!!! I’m thinking about getting some fake flowers and putting them on my door step and making my door look summery, maybe that will help things move along faster
***16 weeks along, I’ll find out in the next couple weeks if it’s a boy or girl…unless they make me wait, like they did with Chloe)

Sorry, I didn’t even know you were feeling so sick. Some neighbor I am. If you ever need someone to take Chloe for a few hours, let me know!!!

I am glad you are feeling better. I hated the first trimester, I lost so much weight. That must have been so scary to have to go to the hospital and such. Keep feeling good okay!
