so we've had an eventful week 16. We're supposed to be moving this week, my birthday was this past Monday and my mom is getting married on Saturday and what does the doctor tell me today... I have PNEUMONIA! I got what I thought was a cold on Saturday - running nose, etc. Then Sunday I went good to bad and spent the day in bed coughing and I've tried to work the past 2 days but haven't made a full shift yet and now I'm not allowed to go to work for the rest of the week. I'm stuck at home (in bed, coughing up a lung!) thankfully I'm on antibiotics (which are safe for the baby - Dr said these are antibiotics he would prescribe to an infant) so I am praying I start to feel better soon, but currently feel horrible - no strength to do anything (barely enough to be on the computer for more than 10 mins) and coughing CONSTANTLY. I'm glad I went to the Dr and didn't think it was just a cold (lots of people told me it would be a waste of my time as the dr wouldn't give me anything for a cold, but after being up ALL last night coughing (Poor Ronel - I felt so bad for him but he was so good, rubbing my back and praying me through it) Ronel & I both felt I should be on the safe side and go get checked out. And I'm glad I did.
On baby news, I don't think the baby is loving all my coughing, must be like a roller coaster in there when I cough! I can feel my uterus contracting when I cough and I thought I might have felt the baby move this week but wasn't a 100% positive. Can't wait till I feel the baby move and now it is really the baby!
Oh and on top of all that, we've had record breaking cold temperatures (not as bad as back east but still!) and we've had light snow flurries daily since Monday! Spring, please hurry and bring the sun back!
