So....had my doctor's appointment today. ANOTHER different doctor, not that it makes a really big deal, but it does get a bit annoying to have to REtell the same things over and over again! Anyway, he basically just made me paranoid because I am having some sharp pains in my upper right abdomen that he checked out. Now granted, they could easily be just sore ribs from Layla kicking me, but it ALSO could be my liver getting out of whack. Just to be safe, he ordered some bloodwork for my liver which IF it comes back positive then I literally go in and deliver the baby TOMORROW. The only way to stop the progression of the problem, which could ultimately lead to liver and kidney failure, is to deliver the baby immediately. SO.....now that I am sufficiently worried sick and haven't slept in several nights anyways, I am paranoid about getting the results back, hopefully by tomorrow. It would just be SUCH a shame for me to come this far SO healthy and SO easily only to have to deliver her immediately. Apparently, though, the condition is VERY rare (in only .2%-.6% of pregnancies). So we have that in our favor. I will be sure to keep everyone updated as I find out more. They also did some bloodwork to determine if I have any risk of preeclampsia and also for anemia. I have another appointment every week from here on out, as standard procedure. And for those that have lost count....I am officially 35 weeks pregnant today! Next Wednesday will be my next appointment. Oh the joys......
Anyway, we are DEFINITELY getting closer now to my prince charming coming home!!!! I got in trouble last time I put exactly when he is coming home, so just know it is just sliiiiightly over 2 weeks until I get to see my handsome man!! And let me tell you, I have NEVER had so many mixed emotions in my LIFE! Nervous, anxious, excited, happy, CRAZY.....SO many thoughts and emotions running through me about his return. Will he still like to look at me? Will he think Layla moving is cool? Gross? Weird? Will he be ready? Will I be ready? SO many things I just cannot help but think about!!! AH!
However, Matthew is doing REALLY well and had the opportunity to hang out with a bunch of F-15 pilots yesterday! What a treat! He got to get up close and personal with the Fighter aircraft too as you can see in the pictures above! What a neat opportunity! Right now he is working crappy overnight shifts, but hopefully that helps him adjust back to our time when he gets back in not too long now at all! Neither of us like to talk about how close it is getting because it still seems SO far away!!!! Anywho....enjoy the pictures of my man!!! He's soooo dang handsome, I just have to show him off!
Matthew, tomorrow is one day closer.....our little girl and I are waiting on you! The pup pups are waiting on their daddy too!!!!!!
