Week 21 Recap

So I have another random infection - we think. After the rash had been around for a week, I called Peggy and went in. Of course, by the day of my appointment, it had faded. However, I woke that morning with a horrible pain in my left underarm, where it was red and had a small, very painful bump. It made my entire shoulder area ache. Anyway, Peggy ascertained my body is definitely fighting something again, so I'm to finish off the antibiotics she gave me when we thought I had staph and go from there.

So I still can't get my flu shot, because I have to be healthy and not fighting something before I introduce a new virus into my body. And PJ is very worried about H1N1 for me and the kids, and that's a new stress to deal with. Fun.

Otherwise, things are going pretty well. I'm getting increasingly uncomfortable, though. I've gained so much weight! I didn't gain anything with Tristen until 17 weeks - I've gained 18 thus far. But I'm close to on par with my weight gain with Mace, but farther than I was with MaraJade. I just don't know how to "watch my weight" as I've never really had to do that before. Ugh, I don't want to have to worry about this too.
