Pregnancy Update - 25 weeks

Well I'm now well into my 6th month of pregnancy.
Yes I know!
The time has flown by!

Whenever people ask how I'm doing
I always reply
"Oh I'm great!"

But let's be real here.
This pregnancy is determined to be the death of me!

Maybe it's because I had a 5 year gap in between babies.
Maybe it's because I'm in my 30s now.
Maybe it's because I'm so busy with life.
Or maybe we can just blame it on Ryan's genetics! (lol kidding honey)

But either way this one has been brutal.
Nausea 
Every.
Single.
Day.
All.
Day.
for 
SIX months.
Awesome to say the least.

At my OB appointment this week I hit my breaking point.
Instead of my instinctual "I'm great" reply
I broke down all my ailments,
every single one of them,
and I literally broke down
in tears.

Nausea
Vomiting
Anemia
Dizziness
Shortness of Breath
Mood Swings
Migraines
Leg Cramps

I was certain they were going to redirect me to the Psychiatric Office down the hall
but instead they were so sweet, listened and empathized.
 Then piled me up with more drugs.

You see I still have that dang cold turned sinus infection,
ya that measly "common cold"  from FOUR wks ago!
So now I'm on a z-pack for that
and all sorts of fun anti-nausea pills.


For someone that rarely gets sick,
I've become a walking pharmacy!

But other than all that,
I'm doing great!
Thanks for asking! :-)

Oh and she's the size of a head of cauliflower this week!
