Croup: Season 2, Round 5...and other

Elijah got croup last night, as I suspected he would. Same drill, same outcome. All is well and now he has a cough.

I'm pretty sure I'm the crabbiest I've ever been in my entire life. I am not feeling like a good wife (AT ALL) or a good anything right now. I feel constantly overwhelmed by a lot of things swimming around in my brain. I'm surprised Dan is still willingly living in this house with me.

My appointment this morning went fine. My cervix is "high and closed," which is excellent. The doctor said I was a "topic" at this week's staff meeting. Of course I was! :) I'm sure I will continue to be from here on out. Anyway, I'm just supposed to continue doing what I'm doing. Laying very low and getting my weekly progesterone shots. My next big appointment is on February 24th and the outcome of that will determine my bed rest fate for the rest of this pregnancy.

Thanks for checking in on us!

I sometimes feel like your cervix......... :o)


Sorry, I'm in a really weird mood tonight! You know how I get! Anyway, I wish I were closer so I could come over and we could prank call people while you are on bed rest, I bet we could do some damage! luv, Kendis

I dreamed about you last night...maybe this is why. We were best friends and you lived in the college dorm room with me and Craig. (Don't ask me why...I have no idea!)

Hang in there, Mama!!

Oh... I'm sorry your not feeling good. Sorry Elijah has croup again too! Try to rest, take care of yourself and not feel guilty for it.
