Anybody out there?

August 25, 2006

Already it's happened where I'm wondering if this has turned into a ghost town.... if anybody is reading.  I'd like to say that I am keeping this journal to show my children in later years but truth be told, I am not certain we'll even get to the point of having children... so therefore it's simply more for support, and it doesn't seem like anybody's even out there.  It's disappointing, as we all know, to post and post and have nobody responding to your posts in your ttm board... but I guess it's par for the course eh??

 

Nothing really new to report on the ttc front.  I've had horribly sensitive breasts this month.  The strange thing is that in the past, I had a bad dirtbike accident that virtually prevented me from even feeling my breasts, so this is a definate new thing for me.  I'm overly emotional... crying constantly, and overly biotchy... but hey, what can I do about it?  Hormones are definately not a friend to most of us.

Last night I woke up at 3am to go to the bathroom (which is NOT a rare occassion).  When I was walking to the washroom I had a horrible feeling come through my mid-section, sort of like everything was being compressed by sharp knives or something.  I litterally lost my footing and fell over screaming for Eddie.  When I got up and went back to bed crying Eddie said "it'll be okay" and began snoring.  I know he slept through the entire thing cause this morning when I woke up and talked with him I re-told the story and said "If this is anything like labor, I'm going to die before the kid is out".  ...I honestly wonder if it was a gall bladder attack.  We went to a fondu place for dinner and had a ton of "fried" foods... although, I've never had problems with my gall bladder before.

Would heartburn be attributed to gall bladder attacks?  Cause I'm having a lot of that (not anything abnormal... or else I would be slightly conserned, as that was the only symptom that I had with the miscarriage).

 

I dunno... anyhow, I'm reading several diaries on iP.  I'm reading all of the precon diaries and anything that is updated somewhat normally.  So... please, if you're reading mine, just drop me a line on the ttm board and say "hello".  Simply so I know that I'm not writing for no-one.

Take care all,

Amanda
