insane allergies Posted: 01-15-08 11:26am
Ok so I have not been on in a while. I am
going to be 17 weeks this friday and about
2 weeks ago my allergies started
up....really bad. So since living in
Austin (about 8 years) I have not had a
problem with them. Before moving here I
did. So my stomach is soooooo sore from
sneezing and blowing my nose. I am
allowed to take sudafed, actifed, benodryl
or claritin. Obviously not all at the
same time. I can only take them for no
more than 4 days in a row cause it could
raise my blood preasure. So I had a docs
apt on Wednesday and everything was great.
Its just that i don't know what else to
do. I hate taking the pills cause I know
it can't be good for the baby even though
I know the greatest risk is during the
first trimester and I am past that. I
just don't know what else to do. I have
not taken anything for the past few days
and I am just so tired. I just hope it
all stops soon.---ugh.

I was wondering where you wandered off
to!!! I was going to pm you this weekend.
I can't believe how far along you are. Do
you have the big ultrasound scheduled yet?
Belly pics? I demand Belly Pics!!!
I'm sorry you are feeling so bad. I wish I
had some helpful advice. I'm sure someone
will.
You better stick around this time!

thanks christy! I know I have just been
feeling so crappy. I have not even been
getting on the comp to check my email. I
guess cedar fever is really bad here and
this maybe what I have. I hope not cause
it can last all the way til
March---ugh!!!!!!!! I don't think I can
handle this for that long.
By my next apt on feb 8th I will be
exactly 20 weeks and he told me that I
could have it done anytime then. We are
going to wait til exactly 20 weeks just
cause we are paying for it out of pocket
and we don't want to take any "early"
chances of not seeing it. As far as pics
I will have to wait for my dh to show me
how to do it--hehe. oh and we are going
to get a dvd of the ultrasound at 20 weeks
as well. i am ready to know what we are
having so I can start getting the babies
room ready and stuff.
