Much better...

Things have obviously not been going so great in my household. I was feeling very alone and depressed. Kenny and I talked very seriously yesterday and I think it did some good finally. The rest of yesterday was spent with me resting and Kenny taking care of Ivy. Today has been quiet, which is a good thing.
I don't know exactly what's going on, but the 'morning sickness' seems to have returned and I'm unable to keep much from coming back up. I had hyperemesis gravidorum with Ivy and I really hope that's not what's going on. I do not wish to be sick for five more months and the medicine really keeps you knocked out.
It's very hard to believe that I'm over the halfway mark with this new little one.(I'll be going for my scheduled cesarean on 4-21 or 4-28 next year) I don't look or feel very big and my doctor only does two scans, one at four months and one at six months. I worry that the baby isn't as big as it should be or that I don't have enough fluid around the baby. My other doctor would do an ultrasound any time I was worried about the baby, to put my anxious mind at ease. It makes no sense to me that I'm now going to a high-risk ob and he doesn't believe in multiple scans. I really don't want to wait until the middle of January to know that my baby is just fine. I hate feeling helpless.
Anyway, I wanted to post a little update to let everyone know that my situation is improving and I'm feeling quite relieved. Nauseous, but relieved, however that works.
I'll be hosting Tina's giveaway tomorrow, so be sure to check back and see what I'm giving away. I'm also planning a post with a belly pic, as I should be better at taking them since this will be my last pregnancy and I will appreciate it later on.
See you guys tomorrow...

I am SO relieved to hear things are going better for you Lindsay. I have been very worried about you and your stress levels. I'll be praying for your baby to be healthy and strong and for your pregnancy to go smoothly with no problems or complications. I'm excited to see what you have to offer tomorrow although part of me is saying that I shouldn't enter because I've already won something. Sending you my love dear girl...Hugs

It's nice to hear when things are going well for a mommy and her Rainbow baby. And April 28th is a lucky and happy day because it is my birthday! lol

I totally get it. If it's not one thing, it's another. Do you have one of those u/s places where you can walk in and pay to see the baby? I'm thinking of going to one here next week. Or maybe you could call your old doctor and just go for a visit. I worry constantly. But, am grateful for the nausea (even tho it sucks) because it helps me believe things must be okay. Hang in there!
