25 Weeks

Ha pop out belly? I am always amazed when I see my profile! I guess that's why I do these pictures, so I can see how it's just growing!

So this week was a brutal one. I was sick with a cold for about two weeks and then last Saturday I was in the hospital for 6 hours because I was dehydrated and had contracted influenza! I was so sick. I couldn't breathe from my nose and then I was shivering and feverish with the flu! They had to give me two bags of fluid through an IV (which I hate more than anything) and tested me with every swab, stick and poker you can imagine! Luckily baby was perfectly fine and I was able to recover within just a few days. I hate being sick! I have been nothing but sick this entire pregnancy! (I guess it is my fault for not getting the flu shot) Lets hope I'll stay healthy from now on!
