Hey all--long time no talk
this is probably a stupid question but I need to know the answer asap and no one else is home right now to ask....Tom's got bronchitis...He's coughing up a storm and he's congested....But, he seems well enough to go out and get errands done..He wants to see me tonight, and i'm sitting here getting ready and I didn't even think to ask if it's something I can catch....So is bronchitis contagious? I think it might be for the better if I lay low tonight because the last thing I need is a bronchial infection of some sort....But then again I haven't seen him in a while, and I miss him!! What do you guys think?

No I didn't go last night....Buttttt I saw him this morning lol...He came and picked me up at like 9 30 and we went back to his house and hung out and watched a movie....And ya know, other things lol(jen we def made up! Lol)....But it was only for a couple hours cuz he had a business interview to go to at 12 up in philly....It was soo weird, ya know after all we've been through and the 4 1/2 months we've been together, can u believe i've never seen the kids room upstairs? I guess because everytime I went over there we always stayed downstairs cuz that's where most of his stuff is, and cuz it was weird with his parents being home..I mean I barely knew them when we told them I was preg....Its like a lil apartment down there..But hes still got a bedroom on the 2nd floor...Whichhh we were talking about and he said he's thinking that maybe we can turn that into the baby's room, or since the downstairs is sooo big we could rearrange things and have both his stuff and the babys stuff(theres like 4 or 5 diff rooms down there and a full bath)down there and clean out the upstairs room and let his mom do whatever with that..So we can stay over there and alternate....But anyways, it was nice to be able to see him again and get back on good terms...It was so cute, he took a shower and walked into his room and asked me to help him pick out a shirt and tie to match for his interview and I picked out his cologne, and I helped him with his tie...Awww it was so cute! Lol imma dork I know, but I felt like his girlfriend *finally!*...Oh and after we, ya know, i've been getting cramps on my lower right side of my belly....Is this normal? Its been there for about an hour now, and usually it goes away....Im not having any bleeding or anything, but these cramps are becoming an annoyance....Well just wanted to let u guys know how it went...And yes, jen, I know ur gonna be mad cuz I saw him, buti missssed himm sooo much! And if it makes any difference he sounded sooo much better and he wasnt coughing barely at all....But anyways...Ill keep u posted!
