I had my first prenatal appt today. It completely started out on the wrong foot. They took my blood pressure, and it was high. That's crazy for me, mine is always on the lower side. Then, when I went back and they got my background or whatever, the dr. goes, okay, let's go take a look at the baby. Honestly that alone scared me shitless. The military doesn't like preforming ultrasounds, they don't even do routine scans. It has to be an emergency or something like evaluating fetus growth. Anyway, we go over and we saw the baby! It was wonderful, the first moment of relief I've had the whole entire time I've known I was pregnant, we saw a heartbeat, and she said it was strong! Then came another scary part, since I had precancerous cells in my cervix last year they performed a 'cold knife cone'. Now I have to verify from my old dr that it was a cold knife and not a leep. If it really was a cold knife (as I know it was) there could be complications with the growth of my cervix, and they'll have to do another scan in about 7 weeks. Plus they had to screen me for the genetic mutation that my daughter has. And if I test positive for it, that could indicate even more complications. I'm honestly so shook up right now, I don't know how I should feel...

Oh my goodness. After a month of my neighbor and I talking about how much we needed to walk, we finally went to Walmart today to get her a stroller for her daughter. We seriously walked down our whole street, all 1.5 miles of it. Let me tell you, I'm so proud of us! We didnt go to sleep until like 3 this morning because we sat around last night drinking. Yep, woke up at 8:45 this morning with a hangover, and we still managed to go 3 miles. That amazes me.

And if you dont believe me, I got 3 blisters to prove it, lol. I really need some decent running/walking shoes.



Oh, and our pool opens on the 24th!

So, I put Alana to bed tonight, and as usual I went downstairs to get her some milk for her cup. Well, I get back upstairs and she's in the bathroom SCREAMING... I run in shaking, my heart beating out of my chest, so afraid she got her hands on my razor or something..... Turns out, she opened up some nail polish and decided to use it as eyeshadow. I guess it dried and closed her eye up a bit and scared her... It absolutely amazes me the things they get into. I asked her what happened, "paint fingers mama"

And that has what to do with your eye being painted????
