I am finally in the 2nd trimester now, okay well technically three days less if you go by the dates on my first ultrasound but I'm choosing not to do that. I think maybe (just maybe) things are improving. Kind of one step forward and two steps back. I'm still feeling pretty awful but am slowly starting to be able to drink more fluids. Of course now my weight seems to be falling more. I'm about 4 pounds away from where the nutritionist from homehealth says I'd need TPN. At that point my doctor would be forced to give me a PICC line, if that happens right as I'm finally able to get more hydrated on my own that would be awfully unlucky timing. Since my veins needed a PICC about 6 weeks ago.
And while I'm excited to possibly have the HG get better (note I said get better and not go away because that won't happen till the baby comes out) I'm dreading getting further into the pregnancy because that simply means dealing with other problems. I'm sure I'll be having regular contractions by 18 weeks and I hate that. The plan is to start progeterone shots at 16 weeks, which is soon.
