As time goes by

So to ramble on some of my thoughts I've decided to post my third blog. Earlier in this week I experienced something new. I had hit a bad patch of ice, ended up in a ditch. Now you hear that phrase you think the worst. Thankfully this isn't the situation. When I went in the ditch It was piled high with snow. And when My car went in it, it was like somebody tried to make a snow ball out of the most powdery snow ever. And tried to throw it at me. It was as if nothing had happened at all. Though I was 40 mins away from home it was getting dark so I had to stay out of town.
I didn't think anything of my little trip so i hadn't packed a single thing. So I missed A vitamin, and when this happens I get really sick.
Well my life has been changing so Much I'm in the second trimester so you think better morning sickness right? me too. Thats not the case. The following day i was sick all day couldn't keep a single thing down so late at night i decided to go to the hospital. There i was poked and proded. The verdict was I was becoming dehydrated. they prescribed me some pills. And of course I have to follow up with my doctor at my appointment on tue. So the one thing on my mind from this night is when the nurse who was doing the doppler started she told me they were trained to do them just not fully trained so basically they knew what to look for and that was about it. I told her where we found the heart beat last and she said she heard nothing. she started moving left on my abdomen and said the thing was picking up a heartrate of 180 and then we heard the faintest of sounds. She ended up dismissing it and kept moving left she then found my heartbeat. and asked if i was nervous! of course i was!
So Then she started to move right. and in the far left she found a strong fetal heart beat she est. it at 150. The one thing hanging in my mind is what was the first thing she picked up? Twins run in my family . Tho I won't find out until Jan when the practice does an ultra sound if it is twins. Tho I'm thinking it might be because I have high blood pressure which can be a sign of twins. And its just a feeling.
So at this moment I'm mad at the practices that only do two ultra sounds because I'm 15 and a half weeks preg. and I have yet to see my baby so this bothers me. Why can't i see it when so many others get too..
I'm frustrated :)

thanks for reading

A little ramble :)

So for the past couple months I have had the most interesting dreams. I can feel, smell,hear and everything in these dreams. They are so life like that i can still remember most. And its one thing I noticed was that many people actually have vivid dreams like these while preg. It makes me wonder why that is? Is it the extra hormones? Or is it simply just because they can be? I had one friend actually tell me that she believes the reason dreams become so life like is because. Its yours and the baby's dreams mixed together.
Last night for example the only thing i can remember out of my dream. Is I got test results back from blood work and the only thing that was wrong with them is the baby was releasing (insert fancy word here) and it was over the normal and it ended up being twins.
Now I feel I had this dream because twins run in my family every which way and the odds are not in my favor for having twins [i'd prefer my kids one at a time not multiples lol]

The final thing I want to bring up in this post is skin. The good ol' epidermus :)
I've read that you shouldn't use to much soap or hand sanitizer the cause it robs your skin of oils and nutrients. Now I read this when I was about 6 weeks along. So of course my first thought was EW! I am addicted to using hand sanitizer and washing my hands if I get something on it. I'm also used to showering about twice a day. But my doctor told me to cut back on that one as well. Of course i nodded and smiled and waited til i was in my car with the babies father before I did the gaging noises and the I can't believe that. But of course I didn't decide to listen to those words until a couple weeks ago. I get to go out and buy some lotion. The cause my stubborn self is peeling >.<
It seems that at a point of the 2 showers a day I noticed when i'd rub my arms or legs to warm them up after stepping out of the warm bathroom. There'd be skin rubbing off. And then all day my skin would be dry and itchy. So I cut back now of course. And of course My brother doesn't realize that I shower when hes not around So he does the "thats nasty you should shower" and of course I have to say "do i stink or something?" and my little brother is a smarta** so he of course would find something else to say after that.
but any way thanks for reading once again :)
