Update

My blood pressure hasn't been giving me problems so far.... thank BBU! On the other hand, my diabetes has been going all over the place even when eating the right kind of food with the correct portions. My doc decided to pull me off work as of next week ... I kinda was thinking of working till my delivery date but she kindly reminded me that I'm on "Special OB" because of my health issues and that I should think of the baby and my health. I tried to wheedle off at least 1 week telling her that my blood sugars maybe better by then but to no avail ... so now I'll be off work and will be home ... which is good I think. I guess I'm just so used to working 5 days a week ... I feel bad that I'll have less time with the baby being taken off work this early ... I'm gonna try to be off at least 4 1/2 to 5 months. Our budget will be a little challenging for a little while but hey, when is it ever not? I'll also have to go to the doc to have the baby monitored twice a week, Tuesday and Thursdays from now on. I'm sure the time will go by really fast ... baby Priscilla will be here before you know it!

Priscilla's New Pictures!

Priscilla currently weighs 2 lbs and 3 oz ... 10-12 weeks more to go!

Recent Happenings ...

Memorial Day came and went ... I was right about the incessant and sometimes almost annoying questions regarding my preggers state ... some were even bold enough to ask how it happened ... I mean really people!

People at work seem to be fascinated with the size of my tummy ... I really don't mind except for certain comments that borders on stupidity ... comments like "are you sure you're not 14 months along?". Two good buddies have already given me baby shower gifts ahead of time ... they think Priscilla will come earlier than expected.

My next checkup is Wednesday. I hope that my dietitian and doc don't nag me too much. I'm not looking forward to getting on their scale ... I've gained enough already! I've been using my stationary bike every night for at least 30-40 minutes. I also have to register at the main hospital next week so that they can request copies of my med files from Kaiser.

Mom is coming over September ... yay! Probably sometime middle of September which gives us some time to settle in with the baby and clean up.

Bad news for my sister in-law ... she was about 1 month along when she had a miscarriage. Good news is she and her husband are going to try again. I have promised to give her my maternity clothes; my sister have decided to completely retire her uterus... he-he-he.
