weeks that is.

i feel like im not ready! but i guess that's a normal feeling :)

the Baby Shower was W.O.N.D.E.R.F.U.L. !!! i have such great friends and family. they made it SO special.
she has a bunch of pics posted for all to see.

i'm even still getting goodies in the mail.

there are only a couple of big things i need to pick up... but i still have some time... and, boy, do i have the gift cards to use! i ♥ gift cards.

everyone just pray that he is home when the time comes for ... well... THE time. i'm so worried that he's gonna be on a trip to Florida or NJ and wont be home to take me to the hospital and hold my hand. :)
i'm just such a worry wart. i'm trying not to be... but its in my blood. ;)

You can buy Bum Genius one size pocket diapers online at Target.com!!!!!

I wish I could've been at your shower!! I really wanted to come, but I've been out of town alot lately. So, felt I should stay home. But never you fear.....a gift will be coming!
Oh, and Larry ordered a cookbook from me. I need your address so I can mail it too! You can Facebook message me.
Love you!

actual update

at 02/11/10 3:19PM

so... where do i begin?

i've finally finished registering for my upcoming baby shower.

Babies 'R' Us

Target

Abby's Lane

go check it out and buy me something! :) ha!

in other news, i spent the better half of the Super Bowl in the ER. fun! i know.

i actually woke up with pretty bad indigestion, but i figured it would go away... seeing how i've had it off and on for the past several months... but all day i was feeling so bad.
We went to eat at Olive Garden with a bunch of friends after sunday morning worship, but i couldnt eat but two bites of my food. i felt aweful.
so... that night comes around and i'm debating weather or not to even go to church... but i suck it up and get dressed. Larry picks me up some Tums on the way and i pop a few down.
around 5 that evening i started to notice some contractions... but i'm thinking its just braxton hicks stuff... but it didnt seem right.
at church that night i notice they start getting stronger and closer together. NOT good... seeing how i still had 11 weeks till Titus was supposed to be here.
so... i start timing them ... ya know... how long they are and how far apart they are coming.
i get up during church and call my sister and she tries to calm me down and tells me to relax and maybe they will go away...

well... they dont.

after church we decide to go to a super bowl party that a couple from church are throwing at their house... so we get there ... and i think i'm psyching myself out... but they dont stop and they arent getting any farther apart (they are every 2 to 5 mins now about about 20-55seconds apart).

Larry decides to bring me to the ER.
(my very first ER visit since i was like 6 and i tried to stick pencil led up my nose)
i check in and they wheel me away to a room in the Maternity ward.

the hook me up to monitors and a IV to see whats going on.
they give me a shot to stop my contractions but that makes my heart rate SHOOT through the roof.
so they are giving me a bunch of pills that i dont even know what they are for.
i get real sick that night and .. well... i'll skip those details.
but.... about 5 that morning the contractions finally subside. FINALLY

it turns out i had a 24 hr virus that has been hitting the prego comminuity pretty hard.
they say it makes you feel bad so you dont eat... so you get dehydrated.. and apparently that can make you start having contractions.
the IV fluids they gave me was exactly what i needed.
i told them that i did try to drink water but it made me feel worse... and they said that water can do that. weird.

so... all in all.. i was a long night last sunday. but larry did a real good job taking care of me and he didnt even pass out when they were giving me the IV.

the whole time i was there Titus was doing just fine. he was moving around like something else... i guess because it was sugar water in my IV and it got him all hyped up! :)

i'm feeling lots better now.. i went home Monday and slept and slept.. which was nice.. because hospital beds are NOT comfey at ALL :)

Wow! What a story! Glad you and Titus and Larry are all OK! :-)

by melissakae at 02/11/10 9:32PM
I'm pretty impressed with Larry! And I'm glad you're all okay now.

I like the pattern that you found!

by sharon at 02/16/10 5:47PM
So did you know that I got sick on superbowl sunday exactly three years ago when I was pregnant? Weird, right? Except mine wasn't a virus, so they popped that kid right out of me.
