Today we're 11w2d and I'm having a better day today. The last two evenings were awful, so I'm feeling quite grateful! Is there a light at the end of this nausea tunnel yet? Puhleeze?? I'm guessing I have less than a month of this left. It can't go by fast enough.
In general, I'd say my IC has been better the last week. I'm holding out hope that I will still go into remission but in the meantime, I'm taking my Elmiron and praying a lot. My breasts are still incredibly sore and you wouldn't believe the tummy that has popped out on me. I can't believe it's here so soon! I had to go get a couple of pairs of maternity jeans today. They are blissful.
I took Ella over last weekend to Dallas and we did some maternity shopping there, too. There are some really cute things out there and it gives me a reason to shop which is great. The trip was fun, but exhausting. I was not feeling well a lot of the time and not having Wes around to help "parent" Ella was draining. I really appreciate all that he does to take some of the burden off of me, especially in the evenings.
Next weekend we're going to visit Matt and Amy and it should be easier since all three of us will be going. I just hope flights are running on time and it's not too terribly freezing!
Another big thing going on is that I'm having trouble getting a doctor to sign off on my leave of absence so I may be going back to work next week. I'm not sure I'm well enough to do that but I won't have a choice since I'm going to lose my pay and benefits otherwise. I have an appointment Friday with my new OB's office to determine what they'll do. I seriously will cry if they don't sign off. It's just going to be a struggle to be in the office every day until I'm over the worst of this nausea.
