View CELAWLOR's food & exercise for this day
Lesse. I am feeling more like myself. I started to type "feeling more normal", but that is the wrong word for me. I have not had any more emotional or mood swings since...Wednesday? Or was it Tuesday? Whatevah. It's been great, nonetheless. And the nausea is definitely going away...FINALLY!!!
I had my ultrasound on Friday (and took the day off and hung out with my friend) and I got some really good news. The placenta, while still low, has moved up nicely and is now off of my cervix. Additionally, the part that was bleeding has corrected itself and all is well in the womb. The baby is doing well and I got to see her bouncing around in there. The technician said that she is 90% sure we are going to be having a girl, but not to go out and buy pink until my next ultrasound.
The only bad news is that the midwife decided (for whatever reason) to keep me on pelvic rest for one more week. That sucked as I really wanted to get some stuff done, but I am now looking forward to Thursday being my last day of being unable to live my life.
Prince Charming is home. We decided to have a "date night" at babies r us last night. We were there for about 3 hours. We went through every single isle of the store (looked at everything) and determined what we did and didn't want/need. I recorded it all in my blackberry. Then, I needed a break so we sat in the glider area and just talked and then decided to go ahead and buy everything that we thought we needed right then. He absolutely loved shopping for the baby stuff and it was so friggin' cute to me.

I am relieved that I have that task checked off my list. The money is spent and I can now work on the budget for other things. That was a huge unknown in the cost department so I am happy it is done. I estimate that we have about another $300 we need to spend for the nursery/baby stuff. I don't like unknowns--especially when it comes to my money.
