Something I definitely didn’t miss being pregnant was the morning sickness. I went to the hospital on Sunday night around 5pm. I hadn’t ate since a few days prior. I couldn’t keep anything down. Food or fluids. I was really worried I was dehydrated. My mom took me in, and they did all sorts of testing, etc. They took blood, which was a treat, because they had to stick me a total of 4 times for the blood because I wasn’t giving any. So I have bruises and blood blister looking marks all over my arms, I look like a junkie. They gave me an IV for the dehydration, and then did a bunch of tests. Gave me a pelvic exam, took urine, the blood work, etc. Basically they confirmed I was pregnant. I was healthy where I needed to be. Just overly nauseous. They gave me a prescription for nausea and prenatal vitamins.

I filled my prescription for that today, and the insurance would only cover 12! of the nausea pills. I go to the doctor on the 13th, well… to see the nurse. I’ll have to ask for more than if its possible. Regardless… I feel like shit, I want to just sleep all day. I still haven’t gotten much food in me yet, and I have a full day of work ahead of me. I don’t want work to get mad at me for missing, but I have a feeling, I’m going to be doing a LOT of missing work in the next few months.Well, I just anted to keep you all updated on whats going on, whats happening with me, etc.
