I got some really good news today! Last week, I went for an early screening of Down's Syndrome and Trisomy and got the results back today. NEGATIVE! What a fantastic sigh of relief and I cried. Hard. I guess with my high hCG levels, I was just worried and it turns out that I was worrying for nothing. So, worrying doesn't payoff at all. I want to thank ETW for all of her advice ("Don't worry!"), love and support.
I feel fantastic, too. My sinuses were really bothering me over the weekend and I just suffered because I was told not to take anything. On Monday, I called the Dr and the nurse told me it was ok to take Tylenol Sinus ONLY. I left my office around 3:30 to go to the drugstore. I made my purchase and made it back to the office and took a couple (they were in packs of 2). Around 4:10 pm, I was lethargic! I didn't put two and two together and just figured I was in serious need for a nap. I went home at 4:30 and fell right asleep. I woke at 6 when my cell phone rang and felt somewhat better. The next morning, the medicine box was still on the bathroom sink counter and I looked at the box. I had bought NIGHTIME! No wonder I was about to pass out! Needless to say, I haven't taken anymore of that coma inducing voodoo medicine! I just suffered yesterday! Maybe it was a sign that I should not take anything.
We told the boys on Friday and they were really happy and excited. They wanted to know if the baby was a boy or girl, when it was coming and if we had names picked out yet. We figure the crap will hit the fan when they tell their mother. She is already threatening to move to VA because she got laid off from her job. We figure this will push her over the edge. She'll hit a snag when Kody tells her that he does not want to move and wants to live with us. He can choose next month when he turns 14. Kyle doesn't want to move either. He'll be 11 and not able to choose though. We figure once she finds out that we CAN and will get custody of Kody, she won't move at all. If I have a little girl? Oh my! She'll explode! See, she and J lost a little girl when she was 7 months pregnant. I'm sure that wound is still open. I don't know if the kids have told her or not. Kyle has a ballgame tomorrow night and alot of people know, so if she's there, she will for sure find out. I just hope she doesn't start. I can't get anymore upset about ANYTHING! Y'all may have to come down here and help me out if she does!

Let me know! I am down for a road trip for sure!
Glad you got such wonderful news from the doc. That is awesome!
Very happy for your test results! Thanks for the supportive comments on my post today. I hope your sinus stuff gets better soon.
I can make it to your neck of the woods in 3 hours flat. You say the word and I'll take care of that bitch Philly style. Do not let her upset you....it's called jealousy. You worry about you and your little one, let your husband deal with her.
I'm so happy the tests came back negative. That must have been hell waiting for the results.
Stay rested, let everyone wait on you, and milk the pregnancy for all its worth. You deserve to be happy !!!!!
That news is (in typical Efen fashion) FUCKIN GREAT!!!
Ya know, you don't need the additonal worry and stress from either what she thinks or how she'll react. Its hers to deal with...not yours.
Congrats again....I knew it would be all good :)
Yea, Honey Roasted!! :) And, uh, mama...you can hold my earrings while I beat somebody's ass, ok?
THE GIRL: I don't know what Rip has been telling you, but there's no way you're making it from Philly to THIS part of WV in 3 hours! (but if you ever wanna try, let us know! :)
Glad to hear the good news. I cannot U*breath* when pregnant. I am totally stuffed up. I really like 'Ocean' Nasal Spray. Its completely safe during pregnancy. I use it before bed. Check it out if you are still having trouble. :)
Excellent news! I knew it! :-) Now, just relax - don't worry about the ex. Just try to enjoy the rest of the pregnancy... it all goes by so fast.
Trisha: Be ready!
Vinomom: You are so welcome...thank you for the wishes.
Girl: Yeah, it is jealousy, huh? She is the one who did not want him! Her loss is my gain. Waiting was HELL for sure.
Efen: I can always count on you!
Elle: Good Lord, you crack me up. Make sure I get to hold your diamonds. You know pregnant women get all forgetful and stuff.
GiGi: Trust me... I will try anything that is safe as long as I don't take that voodoo stuff anymore!
ETW: You have been a rock for me. Don't go anywhere until I have this baby! Wait.. then I'll ask a million more "What do I do?" questions?
You guys are the best! Thank you for all the support. Couldn't do this without any of you guys! sniff sniff!
Elle: Trust me honey, with the V8 I have in my car and my amazing driving skills - I'd make it.
I am sooo jealous that you have a baby cookin'. Happy for you that peanut is healthy and things are going great.
Congrats.
