last nite my first attack hit me. yep, the yeasty, explosive, belly attack that happened with bridon in the 3rd trimester struck again with this one all nite long. cross your fingers it doesn't mean this baby will have a sensitive stomach too! there's no way i'm taking those crazy pills again, so off i'll try it again eating bland food and too many carbohydrates in hopes to control this! the things we do to bring these little ones into the world. the vericose vein is now many veins going all the way up my right leg and beyond. at nites i feel crippled after tossing and turning with my new support sock. i may never be seen in a swimsuit again. that is, if i can stil move :). treadmill here i come...just walking now.
by the way, i don't mean to complain, just doing a little documentation. i have good friends that can't have kids and an old neighbor from usu just had her baby hit the 3 lb. mark in primary children's after being in there since october! girls, i'll take my sour stomach and veins anyday over that! but, i don't know how you women that have lots of kids did it! i know i'm 30, but i think the birthing genes are against me on both sides (small families for a few generations back)!
bentley, you put me thru a strenous childbirth, gave me a 'roid and my first root canal, and helped me pack on the pounds, but that was nothing compared to bridon who tore my stomach up and gave me two crowns. and now you little one, all of the above, plus who knows what since i am currently missing a tooth until i can have the new one screwed in and my stomach is churning. it's all because i love you ALL and your dad and i felt like you were supposed to come to us (our lives are so blessed with each one of you). i'll just get dentures and a prosthetic leg if i have another one! just because i love you.

makes me laugh and cry at the same time! i hope the bland diet works for you...try bananas, rice, yogurt, applesauce, oatmeal...good luck!
Great blog post! I love the documentation and humor. Not convinced I ever want to get pregnant now! Just kidding...
Look at the bright side - your mind is still working correctly or you wouldn't have been able to write such a great blog... Hopefully the healing process will come quickly after this new little one arrives.
You are such a tough woman Maria~! We all have our trials...and it is always good to know that we wouldn't trade them for anyone elses :) Good luck with the teeth problem, I cringe and shudder just thinking about it.
bless your heart Maria. I was holding one of my friends new little babes and he was just sleeping away on my shoulder and all I could do was just want one of my own, but I'll be honest, I know more than I want to and I don't know how people do it either because it scares the pants off me!
I'm sure glad you keep having them though, because they are just so precious!
Let me know when you want me to take those boys off your hands.
