Pain Pain Go Away, Come Again Another Day...

Ok so I've been sick today and feeling dehydrated and tired and hurting. I hurt so bad today, my hips and legs and my back and my stomach. Everything hurts!! Over the weekend I had some trouble with dehydration as well... I didnt drink any water on Saturday and my body knew it. I was so thirsty and having a wicked bout of cabin fever. I dont feel like I can "wet my whistle" though even today... I'm still so very thirsty. I hope this isnt my body's way of telling me I have gestational diabetes. Usually excessive thirst is a symptom. We'll see though, they are going to do another Glucose Tolerance Test on me soon and I guess we'll know then.

I love it so much when the baby moves around and kicks and just plays around... well it seems like she is playing. She really does get active after I eat mexican food! It makes me want to eat it more just to feel her. I still wish Jon could feel her... I just keep telling myself - soon!! He says he loves it when I tell him she is moving because he really feels like he is involved.

Yesterday I was going nutty sitting in the house and Jon must have just known because he asked me if I wanted to get out of the house and go walk around the mall or something... I of course said YES! We went and did some walking but I couldnt last long, my back started killing me and my belly was pulling down so hard. I ordered a Maternity Belt and it should be here sometime this week. I probably would have been able to walk and stand longer if I had it yesterday. Jon didnt mind though, we just decided to go a little early for dinner, so we went to Garcia's. It's an authentic mexican restaurant here and I had higher expectations so I didnt enjoy it as much as I could have.

Anyway... we have a Dr appointment tomorrow but Jon cant go to it with me. It's just a normal boring appointment anyway I think so it shouldnt be a big deal that he isnt there. I'm sure I'll be writing tomorrow to document how that appointment went.

We'll see, hopefully all is well and the baby sounds good!!
