WOW. What a long day. Boy am I exhausted. Didn't get to sleep until 12:30am. Got up for work at 3:45am.. Cold shower helped me wake up a little for work. Luckily I have a brand new water heater sitting in my living room which is being put in tomorrow. The day just went by soo slow at work, and I even left 15 minutes early. Had a dr's appointment today! Baby is so very healthy, heart rate is good, my blood pressure is low, and he measured just fine! She measured my belly too, that was a first. From my pubic to my sternum, probably to see where my uterus is. Which it is the size of a soccer ball-ish, sitting 2 inches above my belly button. She said over the next couple of weeks I will get really big up high and then pretty much over one or two nights I'll wake up and he'll be dropped down. I can't believe it. 106 days left. 3.5 months! (Please note this measurement is on a 10 month calendar, as pregnancy is 10 months, not 9.) She is worried about me though. Of course they test my urine and I told the nurse she would find blood in it. Well, she did, lots of it, and also found a lot of leukocytes.. Meaning I still have an infection in my kidney. This is a concern for baby because infection, especially in my who-ha, can cause preterm labor. She was appalled my urologist took me off of the antibiotic when he put in the stent. She is doing a culture tonight/in the morning of my urine and calling me in two perscriptions.- Darvocet, which is my life saver, even though I feel horrible every time I take it because I feel like I'm hurting baby- and an antibiotic. I bet it's ciprofloaxen, which I have an entire scrip of, ya know, the one my doc told me to stop taking.. I asked her if I should start taking that again, now, and she said no. Hopefully with the antibiotics the pain when I pee, or walk, or move at all will be gone. I thought it was just from the stent, apparently not. She got a kick out of the fact Aeson has found my stent and pulls on it like a trolly bell. Next appointment is July 14 at 10:15am. Glucose screening! Looonnngg day at the dr's office, with no food or drink before hand. I just better not have to work the Tuesday night before or that night. I'll die.
Yesterday, btw, was great. The only thing I could have wished for was a hot shower before hand so I could have washed my hair. LOL.

Oh, and I just demolished, I mean took down in literally almost one bite, a SuperSonic Cheeseburger. Thats what happens when you don't get to eat anything all day except for a yogurt cup and 4 pieces of watermelon. Mmm baby is happy, so is mommy.
I think I'll be on my couch with my feet up for the rest of the night. I'm gonna be dirty and not shower before bed. I'm waiting on my new hot water heater to be hooked up. I've had to endure too many cold showers since I've lived here.. Naah... I bet I cave in.
