Little Bit About Me

My photo
First and foremost, I am a Christian woman: I love Jesus! In this blog you will find stories of trying to conceive with PCOS, MTHFR, Poor egg quality, a unicornuate uteterus, and too many babies in heaven. It is a good thing God is the ultimate healer! Here you will find praise! and you may also find venting (I'm not perfect...) and you will find other stories of my crazy life. All the while through this journey I am holding on to scripture & hoping to one day be a mother here on Earth (waiting on God & His perfect timing...why am I so impatient?) But in the meantime, here you will find me: Jessica, loving wife, hopeful heart of a mother, and faithful friend.

Cramps and Acid Reflux

So first of all I am feeling better emotionally. More refreshed, after some sleep, time with James, and today a couple of friends came and visited me.

Cramps. Sunday night little man decided that he was going to be fascinated with the left side of my uterus. Seeing as I have only have half a uterus that go to the right, this is problematic...for ME. Ouch. No joke. Like bad bad period cramps. It would come and go, assuming with his kicks, but I couldn't tell because it was like a dull cramp and it would get more intense with his wiggles. I called the OB because I started getting nervous.

Laid down, drank more water...it cut down to 3 cramps in an hour. Laid on right side and little man slithered out of the uncomfortable spot. (Thank freaking goodness!) Magically, cramping is gone, and so are my worries. Let me reiterate, it HURT. Like cramps from my miscarriage at most intense time. I even went to bathroom to make sure I wasn't spotting or anything crazy.

Then there is the acid reflux....this lady needs to not eat like two hours before bed else I wake up with the magnificently delicious DISGUSTING taste of...vomit in my throat causing me to gag/cough. Nasty. And not fun. And it disrupts my sleep. I have been having more heartburn lately as well. Might have to start taking something before bed so it doesn't wake me up, because sometimes eating has to happen that close to bed. And sometimes I am just hungry and need (or want, your choice of wording ;-P) to eat!!

I am pooped and tomorrow is class. I haven't done any homework either, but I did manage to fold 2 totes full of clothing. Like half way done. Too bad I didn't put them away as well...lol

Maybe I will actually sleep well tonight, but the bummer is my hubby will not be home until after 1. Poor guy has been working lots of hours. He is getting pretty burnt out :-(
