How things are goin…

So I have kind of ignored my diary lately. Haven’t had the energy to write about what has been going on. Well the last thing that I wrote was briefly about was when I was in the hospital 2 weeks ago. Well ever since then I’ve still been having problems. Labor was thrown out that day at the hospital so Owen and Riley aren’t coming anytime soon. My cervix is still hard and closed. But what has been going on is that Miss Riley wants to lay horizontal…nice and comfy on my pelvic bone…which in turn has been causing a lot of pressure and pain in the lower part of my body. Mr. Owen on the other hand flips all over. Sometimes he’s laying horizontal right on top of his sister, or vertical on either side, or all up in my ribs. When I went to the doctor on the 10th, the doctor gave me a prescription for a Prenatal Cradle. This thing is the most uncomfortable thing I have ever worn. It makes me itch, but it helps with the backaches. To me it makes the front hurt more with it on than without it on. Also, she gave me a referral to go to Physical Therapy. I haven’t called on it yet. She also told me to come back in a week.

So when I went back this Tuesday, on the 17th, we talked about how I’ve been doing and stuff. Babies were laying horizontal again, one on top of the other. We also talked about how my right leg keeps going numb when I stand and how it’s harder to stand and walk. He was debating whether to pull me out of school or give me a temporary Handicap sticker until the end of my pregnancy. He decided on the Handicap sticker seeing I only have 4 weeks worth of school left. He also told me to take it easy. We also scheduled my hour Glucose/Diabetes test for the next time I go, which is on May 1st. That is also when the next doctors appointment is. He felt that I was doing ok to go back 2 week appointments instead of bumping me up to 1 week appointments. So all in all, the babies are fine, its just my body not use to having to carry 2 babies. I have also been told that I have popped out a lot compared to a few weeks ago. Pat about fell over when I lifted my shirt to show him my belly.

Ahh, seeing that I mentioned him lets talk about him…Mr. Patrick. Well as of right now we are back together and yesterday we celebrated our 1 year anniversary. But I am jumping too far ahead of myself at the moment. Let me cover why him and I split up. When I was put in the hospital 2 weeks ago he did leave work which I am so happy he did, but he bitched the entire time. Bitched about how he lost holiday pay for Good Friday, how he just got his 6th frequency and that it was bullshit. He did this to my Heidi Mom, but when he got to the observation room he was like “not to make you feel bad but I won’t get paid for Good Friday because I’m here.” I felt bad. Prior to me being rushed to the observation room, I sent him a text message saying I was having a lot of back pain. He sent one back and told me that when I came to the house that he would give me a well deserved massage. I was like AWESOME!! So Thursday [the day I was in the hospital] I ended up going to his house seeing it was the closet place and I was tired. I took a nice HOT shower and he came in to go to the bathroom. I asked him that when I was done in the shower if I could have the massage. He goes “tonight?” I was like “yes tonight.” Which what he came back with hurt more than anything. He came back with “I was asked to do something on the game [WORLD OF WAR CRAFT] tonight.” I flipped the hell out. I was like “FINE!! Play your game it’s fine.” He gave me a “massage” which was a light rub in the wrong place for 2 minutes and then his arm got tired. Then came the icing on the cake.

He knew that we had the ultrasound on Monday, the 9th. I reminded him, I wrote it down, and we even programmed the alarm on his phone saying what the event was. He still didn’t remember. I have enough to remember and do for myself, and I was hoping that maybe he could have taken the responsibility to remember this one thing. Plus is has something do with our children. Nope. He remember when I called him at 12:30. I had to wake him up. I told him I was sick of the shit and that ‘us’ were put on hold for the time being. I also took my engagement rings off and put them away. I cried for that whole week. I ended up going over there last Friday and we made up. He apologized for everything.

So we are now back together and fine. Like I said in the beginning, we celebrated our 1 year anniversary. For our anniversary gifts we exchanged wedding bands. Seeing that we aren’t getting married anytime soon, and we’ve had them I figured seeing we’ve made it a year that as a symbol of our love we would wear them and exchange them as if we did get married. As of right now I can’t wear any of my rings, so I have my 2 engagement rings and the wedding band on a chain around my neck. Pat has his ring on his left hand ring finger.

Well I think that’s it for now. I believe I answered everyone’s question on how things are going. And when I take new belly shot pictures I’ll take a picture of my anniversary gift. I am going to end this entry here…dinner is almost done and me and the babies are hungry. Until next time…toodles.
