It's not a HAPPY party in my tummy!


I swear I have gotten SO HUGE in the last couple of weeks! I'm starting feel Grayson kick and move around. He really kicks when we put the heart beat monitor on him and ESPECIALLY when I take a bath! I'll pour water on my tummy and he LOVES it! So hopefully he'll like bath time when he arrives.

Grayson is DEFINITELY spoiled already! A few nights ago, I was having a really hard time breathing. It felt like someone was sitting on my chest. My mom said, "there IS someone sitting on your chest. It's called Grayson." So I laid down, stretched out, go on my back, then both of my sides, out my arms over my head, did EVERYTHING to get comfortable where I could breathe again. I finally got in the bath tub and IMMEDIATELY I was able to breathe properly. It was bath time and I didn't realize it so Grayson made SURE I knew that it was bath time! lol! I swear he's spoiled rotten!

Last night was HORRIBLE though! My brother has had the stomach flu since early Sunday morning and FINALLY went back to school today and feels better. Well, I KNEW I was gonna get it so I left the house for the day to HOPEFULLY not catch it. Well, well and behold, I got it last night around 7ish after TC and I got back from the grocery store. After hours of throwing up, TC called my OB to ask her what we needed to do since I couldn't keep water down. She told him to take me to urgent care to get some fluids in me and to possibly get a flu shot. Urgent care was closed so he took me to the ER. I had gone to the bathroom and I was spotting and cramping really bad so that scared me. They took me up to labor and delivery. My nurse, Rene, took really good care of me, got fluids in me,   gave me some meds, and made sure Grayson was alright. He was perfectly fine. He kicked the crap outta the machines the whole time and ran away from Rene. I was cramping and bleeding from the strain of throwing up and dry heaving. She gave me some meds and they helped a little, but then I got really bad heart burn so that made me feel even more nauseous. She gave me some heart burn medicine, but they didn't help at all! Dr. Jones sent me some ginger ale and saltines and told me that I could go home if I could keep those down. That was really hard because I HATE ginger ale! It gives me heart burn so it didn't help when I ALREADY had heart burn. I was able to go home at 4. We get home, I lay down, and IMMEDIATELY I puked up the ginger ale, crackers, and water. I was also throwing up some blood but that was from where my throat had torn from throwing up and coughing so bad. 

I feel a WHOLE lot better today even though I still feel a little nauseous, but I've been able to keep down water and some strawberries. I am STARVING but they told me to try and eat 3 meals with snacks in between but not to over do it. So HOPEFULLY I'll be able to eat today.

Grayson is finally moving and it feels so weird but so amazing at the same time! It feels like a little roller coaster ride like the Dragon ride at the fair lol. He absolutely loves bath time. I see a foot or something pop up on my tummy every time I pour water over my tummy. It's incredible! TC will sit in the bathroom with me and watch him move and I swear the man's jealous that he can only see it and not feel it like I can. lol! 

I absolutely love my son! And so does Daddy! We can't wait until he's here! It's going by so fast and it needs to slow down so we can get everything ready but I'm ready to meet Grayson, hold him, and take care of him. It's a scary thought, but we're ready. I love you Grayson Michael Wallace! <3
