dying

I ranted on the other blog, but I'll rant here too. Why not?

I have a cold. It's a bad cold, it has every cold symptom possible and a fever that just makes me feel like crap, all achey and whatnot. All I can take, due to the whole pregnant thing, is halls and cough syrup. Brutal. They don't work. I'm going to request some Tylenol in a bit and see if that'll help any. Every time I sneeze or cough for more than a couple of seconds I have a contraction. And every time I roll over. So, clearly, things are not getting any better, despite my not going further than the bathroom, 3 feet from my bed. I'm still very excited for my 'reassessment' on Wednesday. HA. I thought pap tests were unpleasant, I'd dare say having your cervix checked is worse. Just so you know.

I go for another profile either today or tomorrow with some specialist peri-natal doctor lady. They're going to check to make sure the baby is breathing and swallowing and stuff, which is good. I have no idea how they can see that, but good luck to them. Also, although the level of fluid did go up from last time I got checked, my doctor said that it's not that precise a means of measuring that they can get all in a huff over a small change, which apparently mine was, so I'm still fine. Good good.

Anyway, that's about it I guess. I'm enjoying my lunch of tuna salad sandwich and potato salad, and very much looking forward to my ice cream dessert. Mmmm. Also, we get red napkins today. Pretty exciting!
