Sorry I haven't been on much. I have been having some interesting things happening. Luke has been hospitalized a few more times and I have gotten to do his iv's at home. Very nice but a lot of work.

Luke now weighs 19 lbs and is working on his second tooth. He is such a happy baby and crawls all over the place. We are walking in the CFF fundraiser next Saturday and it looks to be a good turn out.

Here's my shocking news. I just had a miscarriage. Totally came as a surprise. I was only a few weeks along. Only knew I was pregnant for a few days. I was a little shocked the first day but then when I kept testing I got excited and now I am recovering from knowing I lost a baby. I saw the dr today and she said everything looks fine and that I can go on trying this month. She thinks that I was 5-6 weeks along so it was what is called a chemical pregnancy. I don't really like calling it that. The hardest part was telling my sisters. I wish I hadn't told them the day I found out.

The worst part was when I started miscarrying. It happened in the middle of the night and I didn't realize what was going on and when I woke up and turned on the light there was blood everywhere. I knew that I was miscarrying though because my HCG levels had been dropping and the HPT had stopped giving me positives. I am trying to keep a good attitude and am being glad that I know that my ovaries are functioning okay. I would have loved to give Luke a little brother/sister. He loves other kids and I want the 2 to be close in age. So after all this we are trying for another one. I guess I have the baby bug.

We have been thinking about it anyways and talking to Luke's CF doctors and other families with multiple cfers. It seems totally doable and it seems that 2 are fine to handle. We want to have one more and then Dan is going to get snipped. I don't even care if the next has no CF, I don't want to play Russian Roulette too many times.

Well, It's late and my eyes are going crosseyed. Just think about me because I haven't stopped bleeding yet and my BB's are really sore and hard (dr thinks that maybe i had started producing milk already and so i have to dri up just that little bit, today I was actually getting milk on my bra,tmi, i know).

Have a good day!
