17 Weeks!

I can't believe this pregnancy has actually made it to 17 weeks. I had to start seeing a chiropractor for my sciatic pain, but for the most part things are going well. I'm sleeping better than I did in the first trimester and I feel a lot better than I did the first trimester, too. I have been gaining weight a liiiitle faster than I'd like, but I really think that's just because I have been unable to exercise due to the sciatic pain. I'm feeling better now, but the weather doesn't really lend itself to comfortably exercising/walking outside... so I haven't done much.

The reality of all this is sinking in and I'm really trying to figure out how in the hell I will manage a newborn and nursing school come September. WHAT WAS I THINKING??

Progesterone in Ethyl Oleate

Due to a nationwide shortage of my usual progesterone-in-oil, I have been using some compounded stuff that uses ethyl oleate and HOLY SHIT IT HURTS. It goes in a lot easier, but it seriously hurts. I hope the manufacturer gets their shit figured out soon because I would like to go back to my old formulation as soon as humanly possible.

Cycle Day 1

Just FYI... this whole blog will be full of Too Much Information. I'm a nursing student struggling with infertility. Literally nothing is off limits for discussion... just ask my friends. I got my period dark and early this morning (4:45am!), two days earlier than I had anticipated. Now I'm writhing in pain and scheduled to go to school in an hour and study for my pharmacology midterm. Today is Saturday, but my midterm is on Monday and I really haven't done as much studying as necessary. It's hard when you're heart just isn't into it.

But wait! There's more! pt 3

After everything else!!! Now I have pneumonia!!! Granted, it's just technically "walking pneumonia", but this cough is horrible and I cannot WAIT to be feeling better. I started on antibiotics and have the super spiffy codeine cough syrup to help me through it. I'm hoping to feel better by Sunday so that I actually have a chance of studying for my last final on Tuesday. I'd like to earn a 4.0 GPA this semester. It would be a good thing for my overall GPA (3.65).
