Yes, the bloating has gone away thank goodness but not for long I hear. I went to my cardiologist today and everything went well. My blood pressure was ok especially since I stop taking my meds last weekend. I have to get an EGK and he wants to see what my OB has to say about my meds and then I have to go back to see him.
He also questioned why I needed a high risk doctor??? I'm wondering that too. To be continued.........

Bloating & Juicy Mouth March 30, 2011
Today is the second day of feeling very bloated and of course nausea with super juicy mouth. From what I read, it's all normal what I'm experiencing. I signed up on What To Expect and it has helped me a lot with what I'm feeling and how my Sesame (my baby) is growing. Pretty kool!
Today is also my first day back to my pt gig after finding out our big news and it's going to be a big & busy day. I hope that I'm able to beat some face (apply makeup) without getting sick. Lawd, help me.
P.S I'm wanting some chicken nuggets.

Psi Band
Gaby found this for me since my morning sickness, nausea, and motion sickness has been off the hook. This is the Psi Band (pronounced "Sigh Bands") and it's a acupressure wrist bands for the relief of nausea due to morning sickness, motion sickness/ travel, chemotherapy, and anesthesia. We were able to find it at Buy Buy Baby for $12.99 and of course I had a coupon for $5.00 off from Bed Bath & Beyond with a $15 dollar purchase. I also got a Hello Kitty TY stuff animal. We purchase the cherry blossom design since I love them.
I must say that it does help but after a while of wearing, it does leave a mark (it wear off after a few hours) and can get uncomfortable if you wear it over night. But, it's waterproof and again it works. And it was on Oprah's O list and you know what that means, whatever she touches is gold.

I Had A Feeling Something Was Going On
I've been not been feeling like myself for the last few weeks and then notice that I was suppose to get my period around the 14 or so of March. That come and went and thought "Maybe I'm just last". Well, to be honest I'm really never late and was just not even thinking that I might be pregnant. That week passed and still nothing, so decided to take a test. As most of you know I'm a budget Queen and purchase the Target brand (3 in box) HPT (home pregnancy test). Big mistake since they all 3 didn't work and was left with a big ? on my face wondering "What's the hell is going on?"
So, last week I really started feeling crappy and dealing w/ bad migraines, nausea, and dizziness and still no period. I had a feeling but I was going through the denial phase and just telling myself that "It will show up" (I do talk to myself a lot lol). I went into work and was feeling horrible and one of my mangers said hi to me and my response back was not my cheerful self. She had asked what's wrong and told her I was not feeling good and she asked if I might be prego (I like saying and using prego). That's when it hit me and I answered I think I might be but please keep it quiet.
After that everyone keep asking if I was feeling o.k since I was so pale and just not looking like myself. Then, my other manger asked me what was wrong and then instantly asked if I was pregnant. I answered that I might and she asked if I had taken a test and explained what happened. I stayed at work and my lovely manager keep insisting on me taking a test a.s.a.p and telling me that I was prego. I promised her I would and she would be on the top of the list to tell my results.
Saturday March 26, 2011 I woke up early in the morning and went to Walmart w/ G and purchase a single test and came straight home. I went to the bathroom and took the test and we waited in the bedroom with our timers on. After 4 minutes I went to the bathroom and my first words to G were "Gaby Were F*cking Pregnant". Not the way I had thought the moment would work out but I did it my own way (lmao).
After, I decided to wake Mikey (my son) and share the news and his reaction was funny as hell. He accused us of lying and when we showed him the test and still didn't believe us. He told us that we were messing w/ him. It was really funny.
I couldn't wait and called my cousin Jennifer and my bestie Jahnne to share the news. I took a picture and shared with close friends and family. But even after all that I was still shocked and in a bit of denial and went to the doctor on Monday March 28. The results were not fast enough and I took another test yesterday in the car. Shocker! It was positive and that's when I said OK I'm really prego. I called G and told him and he just started laughing.
I got the call from the doctor today March 29 with a congrats and was told that I was consider as a high risk pregnancy due to my high blood pressure.

It's Official I'm Going to Be A Mami Again
Hi Ya'll! Here goes my first post about G & I's new adventure in life. We're having a baby! Yes, I know I have a baby already (now a man) but it's our first child together and pretty much my first again after 18 years. I'm feeling so scared, shocked, confused, and can I say shocked again. We are super excited and looking forward to these 9 months and will be sharing with you our friends and family what's going on every step.
Get ready and feel free to comment. XOXO
