Sick, Sick, Sick

This past week has been pretty tough. Starting this weekend I felt my allergies flare up. I have yucky sinus drainage which usually makes me nauseous. Well add on top of that pregnancy and it is not a great situation! I have felt HORRIBLE! Yesterday was the worst. I practically laid on the couch and dozed on and off all day. I called Andrew to see if he could come home but he was busy getting things ready for his trip to Brazil next week. Yes, I said BRAZIL! My husband is leaving me for a week. I am not too excited about it. So yesterday Cannon had free reign of the house. He was actually very good. He keep checking me to see if I felt better. It was so cute. He would lay next to me and give me a kiss and say "Feel better Mommy."

I have also been having some issues with my pregnancy as well. I noticed some spotting recently so I had to go in and have tests done. I got an ultrasound done at 6 weeks and we could see the babies heart beating. She said that was a really good sign. I also had my hormone levels checked. my hCG levels doubled but my progesterone levels need to be higher so I am taking pills to keep it up. I go back on the 28th to have another ultrasound done. I just hope and pray that everything is okay! I can't imagine something happening to my baby. I have seen the heart beat I know the baby is there and growing. It is my child. I know God is in control! This pregnancy is totally different then mine with Cannon. I had very little symptoms with Cannon and it was a very easy pregnancy. This one is proving a little more challenging. With my first pregnancy I also had the luxury of lying down whenever I needed to. Now I can't do that. Cannon gets a little upset with me if I try to take too many breaks. He is a busy little boy!
