Well I've been off bedrest for a couple weeks, my blood pressure is looking much better. I'm still supposed to rest as much as possible but it's alot better than total confinment Smiling
I'm still lurking just not posting as all I can seem to do lately is complain, DH say's I'm crabby, I say he's lucky I'm not weilding an ax! Laughing out loud
I still have the sinus infection from HELL, I've had it sense March. I just started taking insulin for Gestational diabetes, so between taking my blood sugar 7 times a day, and giving myself 4 shots a day, I'm feeling like a big fat pin cushion these days. I'm not sure what's changed but I only had to check my sugar 4 times a day with DS6 and only had 3 shots a day. I know it sounds like a whole lot of complaining but I know when I'm holding my little Savannah Lea it will all be worth it, Smiling I just gotta survive the next 7 weeks!

Hi Jamielea!

Wow, you've been through a lot! I absolutely love the name - it is something I would've chosen, no joke. Hope you can hang in there for the next several weeks - you are so close to having your beautiful daughter!!!

Take care!

I really feel for you Jamielea. I'm so sorry about all those shots. Thank goodness it's treatable though. We are so looking forward to little Savannah's arrival!

They found out last week that my "sinus infection" is not a sinus infection at all, but some type of seizure that's causing the blood vessels in and around my sinus cavity to spasm. I'm taking a Anti-seizure medicine. Dr says it could be brought on by the stress of pregnancy. Either way I'm feeling alot better and the pain that I thought was sinus is gone. Smiling
The baby still looks great, I'm having a sonogram Monday (tomorrow) to see how big she is. I'm really looking forward to the sonogram, I haven't "seen" her sense 20 weeks. She moves around alot, all the boys including DH love to watch my stomach move. DH says it looks like something from the movie Alien. LOL
Well I'm off to take a nap, thanks for all the thoughts and good wishes.

Jamie Lea
