9 WEEKS

I'm back - but just for a minute. Please don't get your hopes up though because I am barely surviving as it is. Now that my children have been informed, I can share with the rest of cyberspace that we are expecting #5 this coming December. We are thrilled! Unfortuanately I am very sick. I just got out of the hospital after a 5 day stay due to dehydration from vomiting. Most know that my pregnancies are very difficult and so in order to prevent repeated hospital stays, I had a PIC line inserted before coming home so that I could have IV fluids 24/7. I also have been given a medication to help with nausea and vomiting. So due to the fact that I can barely lift my head off my pillow for more than a few minutes I will not be blogging regularly. I will miss you, my cyberfriends...and even though I may not comment on your blogs for awhile, know that I am thinking of you!:)

i'm glad you've come out of the closet...I've had lots of people asking about you!
what helps? could we add chocolate to your PIC line? (i had to add that, chocolate is my signature word on your blog, you see)
I'm thinking about you, wishing I could help!
keep us posted, whenever you can!

Congrats! But, how yucky for you. :0( When are you due? I will miss your posts, but understand. :0) I hope you get to feeling better!

Erica said...

Becky, you are in my prayers. I heard you were in the hospital from dehydration and I thought, "could she be pregnant?!". WOW, I'm so thrilled for you...but being sick is not fun. I get really sick when I am pregnant but it PALES IN COMPARISON to how sick you are! What was I complaining about all last year??!! Please call on any of us to take the kids or give you a hand...REALLY! We love you!

Congratulations! That is great news, but it sucks that you have to be sick. We are always thinking of you. I hope you fell well soon.

Smilin' sunshine said...

Congratulations!!! I have missed your blogging but totally understandable. I have no idea what it would be like to be sick like that. I probably would only have one child. The Lord knew I couldn't handle that, so fortunately he didn't send the sickness to me.

I will be back East in a little over a week, let me know if I can help.

I will miss you, get well soon!!!

OH, Becky, congratulations! I'm so excited for you, but I HEAR you on the vomiting thing. I've never had to have a PIC line, though. I was threatened with hospitalization with my first, however, if I didn't stop losing so much weight, so I remedied that by eating a cup of icecream a day (seriously, that's what the nutritionist ordered! I was just following doctor's orders...:grin: )

Good luck, and hang in there, momma!

Marcus and Stacie said...

Congrats, Becky. You and your baby will be in our thoughts and prayers. Let us know if we can do anything to help out.

Congratulations! That really is exciting...well, once the sickness goes away (will it go away?) it will be exciting. I'm thrilled. So glad you shared your news with the world. I've missed you on blogging and have wondered about you a number of times...now I know where you've been! Good luck.
