Another Scary Night

Yesterday was a difficult day for me. It started with me getting very sick and ended with me still being sick. My blood pressure dropped to 85 over 48. I was seeing stars, had a horrible headache and was dizzy. I ended up having to call my doctor and she took me off my blood pressure medicine. I have always have had low blood pressure but was put on the medicine to help control contractions. We are going to see what happens off the medicine and deal with the contractions when they get more often. My blood pressure is starting to rise back to normal and I feel so much better today!
On the bright side, Jonathan (a co-worker of Josh's) and Karrianne (his wife) came by yesterday. Jonathan was sweet enough to mow our lawn for us since Josh is gone and our yard is huge. The poor guy! The 3 of us played a dice game. I lost, so you know I wasn't feeling good. ha ha Karrianne babysat me while Josh's mom was able to run errends. It was nice to have a change of pace. Thanks Jonathan and Karrianne. It is much appreciated!

Glad to hear the huricane is not causing you too many problems, that would be all you need now. I've been refreshing fetal development, and how fast the embryos cells grow and how at 12 wk the only this baby needs to do is get bigger. Imagine all that, times FOUR! It brings goose bumps to realize how awesome our Creator is!!!!!!!!! Thank you for giving Aunt Barbara my e-mail, it was nice to hear from her, P.S. Hi Aunt Barbara!! I still havent mailed the box of baby clothes yet, I have been having fun going thru everything! Hope you have a peaceful day, talk to you later, Deb
