Pregnant after IF

My Family Rocks

I love them!  I had a Vegas Nerve attack last week.  Normally this happens randomly and I pass out, sleep a little, and am fine.  But they are more frequent (apparently LO is actually getting on my nerve!) since I got pregnant only instead of passing out, I have several hours of a racing heart and really low blood pressure, which is weird because normally it is high.  So last week my dr said I had to be watched for a week and dh was oot for work when all this happened.  So my mom makes my dad sleep on the couch and I sleep in his bed.  He then spends every day just watching me.  I don't do anything because I am on modified bed rest but he is watching me.  Now this week I am free, I can be alone in the house, I just have to have the phone on me.  (Its important to note that my parents live 3 doors down from me in a neighborhood where I can hear my neighbor sneeze in his house, so yeah they can get here fast).  Today I am going back to the dr and my great uncle found out that I might go alone and he doesn't want me to drive.  He is like 80 and never married, and he is now going to take me to the obgyn if my mom is not home in time.  The last place that this man wants to be is an obgyn, but he is willing to go there to make sure that his "girls" are all safe.  I am just feeling so loved right now.  I hope that this baby can feel how much everyone loves her.
