23 Weeks

This past week was a rough one.  I thought I was finally recovering from the sickness I had from the week before but little did I know it was just the beginning.  Stuffy nose, headache, sore throat, watery eyes, cough, and tiredness x100 ensued.  I haven't taken any medication throughout this whole pregnancy and I didn't want to start.  So I just decided to go the al natural route with hot showers, tea, and neti pot after neti pot.  Plus work.  Ugh.  Then I started to panic.  My normal seasonal allergies pretty much disappeared when I got pregnant and I thought it was a happy side effect....but then I wondered if my sickness was the worst allergies in the world and what if this was to be my reality for my last three months.......

Thankfully I am feeling better everyday.  So I am really hoping it's not allergies.  My midwife told me the normal allergy medication I use (the only thing I have found to really work) is not safe during pregnancy. So please just be a nasty bug.

Ryan has still not felt Baby B kick yet.  I finally was able to feel her kick from the outside so I am hoping Ryan will catch one soon.  We have our last ultrasound this week.  I am so excited to see babygirl again.
