Throwing Up, Drugs, and Moving

So my lovely morning sickness went from just nausea to some vomiting in the last two weeks. BLAH! I won't dwell on that though since it isn't really nice to think about updates. However, because the nausea is so bad and now I am throwing up my midwife is trying me on some medicine. It is one of the types that they give to chemo patients when they are nauseous. She, the midwife, said that this one isn't supposed to have the extra sleepiness side effect so it should be good since I need to work. She gave me a prescription for 30 pills to give it a try. They are the pills that you dissolve on or under your tongue. Good news right, so now for the bad. I went to go pick up my prescription at Rite Aid and they told me that my insurance said that they will only pay for 12 per month!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean what good does that do me. Hopefully this nausea won't be lasting for months more. They gave me the number to the insurance to try to call and fight it. I called the doctors office yesterday so I am hoping we can convince my insurance to pay. The twelve pills I got won't even last me through my vacation to Tennessee!!!!

Sorry to all my loyal blog fans that it has taken me awhile to get to this update. As most of you probably already know Daley and I are in the midst of putting the condo up on the market. We got part of the stuff in storage to make it look bigger, got it all cleaned up and organized, and yesterday the realator came with some stuff to stage it. Today the photographer is coming to take pictures and as soon as the realtor gets them they will post us on MLS. I am sad to sell our first home but alas we must. I am not looking forward to living her for as long as it takes to sell in a more than pristine condition with the stuff that makes it feel like home to me (like photos on the walls) gone. Hopefully it won't take long to sell though. Pray for it to sell fast and at a decent price. We don't care about making a ton of money we just at least want to break even.

I guess that is most of the news for now. At this stage of the pregnancy other than tiredness and morning sickness there isn't too much going on. I am not really showing although my waist line is definitely a little thicker. My wedding ring had to come off already although I am not sure if the swelling was mostly from the heat, from the pregnancy, or the combination of both. I'll probably get a chain and wear it around my neck.

1st Doctor's Appointment

On Friday, we went in for our first baby appointment. I had to give a urine sample, have a pap, and give blood, all of which were not very exciting. The exciting part was that they did this sonar thing and we got to see the itty bitty little baby and its heart flickering. It is too early to be able to hear the heart but it was sooo neat to get to see it beating. Daley totally had a better view of it than me because the midwife kept accidentally blocking my view. Wait though, let's back up.

Friday morning I had a chiropracter appointment. On my way home when I was almost back to my condo complex entrance, I was behind a dump truck, a gray unmarked dump truck. Well apparently his load wasn't covered and a huge piece of sheet metal flew out of the back of his truck and amazingly didn't hit me but I couldn't avoid running over it and it shredded my tire. BOOOOO! Now luckily Daley and I had been saving for new tires because I was going to need them soon anyway but we were hoping for a few more months on the ones I had. Unfortunately I didn't get the guy's license plate because I was trying to avoid the sheet metal and of course he didn't stop.

Whew, close call! Anyway, so then Friday night we went to the IMAX and saw "The Dark Knight", which was good although a really dark movie. The rest of the weekend I've been doing what I do all week, fighting my nausea.
