SLEEEEP!!!

Last night was the first night since Friday that i got some sleep...well it was more then 3 hours which i have been getting the past couple of nights. So that means i have had another day off work.

I went to see my Doctor last night and he was a bit worried about the whole not sleeping thing as for most pregnant women they tend to sleep more... But i guess i like being difficult lol. Anyway another concern he had was that because i have had depression and anxity he is worried that the lack of sleep might trigger it again, so he tried to find some medication that he could put me on to help. Thank god he couldn't find any because i didn't really want to take a pill to help me sleep, i have been so good to not take anything (apart from panadol), the best medication that he could find was a Class C medication (in other words don't take it unless you it is the last resort).

My Doctor told me that there was 4 classes A - being good to take, B- meaning it is ok, C-don't take it if you have too and last of all D- DO NOT TAKE!! So by the end of the appointment me he gave me a sheet on insomnia (which all the stuff i already know as i read it in "What to expect when your expecting"). Also he told me to find something natural to help me sleep, but i have been there and done that when i had insomnia before and it didn't work.

So i guess the only thing that i can do is try and get into a routine to help me sleep, so last night i had a bath and sat down and watched some TV with DH and then went to bed...although i waited til i felt a bit tired and that was at 10:30pm and then went to bed, and that is not going to help when i am going to go back to work tomorrow and starting at 6:30am.

I am not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, but the good thing is that i have a Doctors certificate but i doubt that anyone will really care about it. I am really thinking when i go back to work full time i am going to look for another job as i am starting to hate working with people that don't really give a damn if you are pregnant, if your sick, or what ever...i know that it is like this probably where ever you work but i don't know i am really going to think about things while i have time off and i think i might take a management course and see what comes up there.


Anyway on the baby front he has been really active which has been really nice and i am starting to feel when i press on my belly where he is. Also i think DH and i have choosen a name!!

Into the 6th Month (23 weeks)

Well i have now started onto the 6th month (23 weeks). It is kind of scary knowing that everything has been moving so quickly...i know that i really want to meet my baby boy, but i guess with my blood conditions i thought that my pregnancy would be a bit more complicated but things seem to be going so smoothly that it has gone so quick. But like my mother keeps telling me when i hit the last couple of months i will be wishing that it would go super quick. There is a girl i chat to from BH that is 5 days late at the moment, i am hoping that her baby comes soon i know that i will be half freaking out and half praying that the baby would just come already, and i would be trying everything for it to happen.

Wednesday i will have another OB appointment with Dr Davis, I am starting to think that i might need to write some questions about what is going to happen when i deliver...but i think there is still plenty of time to figure it out, i guess at the moment i just really want to know everything there is to know about pregnancy and what happens through out the weeks. I am really loving knowing what is going on. It will be nice to hear my baby's heart beat on Wednesday it has been a while since i have see or heard him...although i can feel him which is nice to know that he is still there.

On a baby update, he is keeping very active and has been going crazy which is really awesome, except before bed when i am really wanting to go to sleep, but DH is really loving feeling him in there.

Update

Well baby has been nice and active and i think DH will be able to feel baby, if he kicks at the right time...he is usally active when i am at work or right before we go to bed, but seems to be active when i have something that is cold and fizzy. I can't wait till DH can feel him it will be nice for him to actually be a bit more of a part of this, I think that he is feeling a bit left out at the moment.

My poor little kitten seems to be getting better which is nice. He was pretty sick last that Thursday and DH and i were up most of the night looking after him and trying to get on to the emergency Vet but no answer it was really annoying as he was quite sick. Hamish (the kitten) had to spend a night at the vet and we needed to pick him up on the Saturday but he seems to be going well as we took him back to the vet today and she is pleased with how things are going, although she still wants him to take his antibiotics and to go back and see her in 2 weeks if he is still going ok.

Things have been moving along nicely and the time seems to be flying which is really exciting.

Quick Update

Just a quick update. Little boy has been kicking like crazy today, cant wait til DH can feel it!

Movement at the station

Well i haven't written here for a while but here is the short version of what has been happening over the last couple of weeks.

The day before i went to Melbourne was really crappy. I was doing something for my big boss that needed to be down straight away and i heard the other staff bitching that i hadn't down something for them...which wasn't urgent and could wait a few hours. Now i really hate what happened next because i went to an all girls school and i can handle bitching, but i burst into tears and couldn't stop crying, damn pregnancy hormones i really hate them...but things turned out alright in the end.

Melbourne trip was awesome and i was glad to see my sister. But yet again pregnancy hormones came into effect and i ended up crying the first night i was there because i missed DH too much, i didn't think it would effect me as much as it did, and when he came and picked me up from the airport i ended up crying again. But i can say this that Baby doesn't like flying at all and ended up kicking me hard when ever we took off or landed.

So it is really amazing to feel the movements i guess throught of knowing that your pregnant and it is just the thought but actually feeling it now and seeing that your belly is becoming bigger gives you that sense of that it is real again and i guess you get that feeling through out the pregnancy and i think i will get that again at my scan next week...i can't wait to see it again and find out the sex.
