11 weeks 2 days

Well Im almost finally ou of the first trimester. Blessed be the Gods!!!!

I had a quick Dr's appointment today.
THe antibiotics he gave me for the UTI didn't work. I still have the baldder infection...and Ive had it for over a month!! So Im on new antibiotcs. *blech* And Im drinking cranberry juice by the gallons. Hopefully these new meds will work. Ive been feeling really run down and Im sure that the UTI is mostly to blame.

My new symptom to date is night sweats.
I woke up last night at 1:30 drenched in sweat. It was so bad I had to get up and change my shirt and put towels down on the sheets!! (For a moment I thought I pee'd myself!!) Woke up again at 4:30 soaked. Got up, changed my shirt again.
Woke up at 7:30 sopping wet. This time though, it was because Lijie had pee'd the bed, and thusly pee'd all over me. So I changed like 3 time sin less than 8 hours.

The other thing, thats happening, that I find particularily unpleasant....My ass is growing. Presumably...scientifically this makes no sense, as the baby is growing in my UTERUS. But nevertheless...I had to go and buy new underwear, as all mine were only covering 1 and 3/4 of my ass cheeks. That made me crabby!!
Also, this morning I put on my jeans and they wouldn't button up , except under extreme pain. So i had to dig out my old maternity jeans from Lijie. Of course they were to big. But I settled for the too big ones, as opposed to the pain inducing to tight ones. Ive deffinately got myself a little belly....Check it out.

Otherwise things have been alright. To be honest, I really haven't felt all that great the past couple of weeks. My back hurts, my front hurts, and Ive been pee'ing every 20 minutes. So thats been making me a little bit miserable.I hope these new antibiotcs clear everything up and I can feel somewhat like normal again. I feel like Helga the she-devil most days.

I told Lijie I was going to the Doctor today and he said..
"Are you going to get your baby out mom?"
He also looked at my belly today and asked me if there was TWIN babies in there. I said, "I don't think so!!!!!!"
And he said..."Just say yes mom..!!"
So now he is convinced its twins. And calls them "my twin babies."

Times chugging along. Im happy Ive made it this far!! :)

When the rear grows it is called a girl lol! Well, that happened with 5/6 of my pregnancies!

Hang in there! I hope your UTI goes away.

Sorry to contradict, but my ass grew first too and then I had Nicholas. LOL

Of course neither one of my boys were NORMAL pregnancies. LOL

I hope your UTI clears up soon and that you stop wetting your bed. TeeHee!
