We had a very nice, quiet Christmas Day. We went to church in the morning and then came home for a meaty-cheesy-eggy breakfast, just what my hubby wanted. We opened presents and had some snacks. I even took a nap in the afternoon. Then we had dinner, which I had prepared a few days ahead [...]
It all started at about 10:30 pm last night. I was terribly sick, going between the bathroom and the bed. I couldn’t keep anything in and I was shaking and sweating. It was just awful. Then Bunky started crying. My husband tried to take care of him but the baby just wanted his mama. So [...]
This is my experience from Tuesday morning. I am mostly writing this out for myself, but your thoughts and support are appreciated.

I starting feeling better yesterday in the late afternoon/evening. My heart hadn’t really bothered me at all yesterday. I realized at some point that I had had some sweet tea on Saturday, and maybe that had affected my heart, especially since I don’t much caffeine when I am pregnant. So I am going to stay [...]
