This pregnancy hasn't been easy.
I've been thrown through some loops in this one, especially with the appendix thing.
And considering I got an infection in two of the incision scars from that operation, it was more than I can handle while being 21 weeks pregnant and fighting the urge to waddle everywhere.
On top of all of that, I received news this week that my baby had a cyst on her brain. Typically called a choroid plexus cyst.
With worrying over that, the fate of my child and dealing with infections this week has truly tested my ability.
I'm happy to say both baby and I have pulled through.
After genetic counseling (where they ask if my husband and I were related!) and an in-depth sonogram, we are happy to report that the baby is fine and that the cyst should dissipate in 4-6 weeks.
(This is the part of the post where you picture me sighing a HUGE sigh of relief).
But of course after all of this, I'm exhausted.
Even though the weight of all of this has been lifted, I feel like I've been run over by a truck and dragged about three miles.
But my baby is fine and that's all that matters.
Thank goodness for that.

So glad everything is okay! Rest up and be happy:)
LoL we did our genetic counseling too... except when we got to the "are you related" questions, I said "yes" and then looked at them like they were nuts for not knowing this. I let them sweat it out for a minute or two and stumble on their words before I smiled sweetly and told them of course we weren't related. It was fun and I needed the laugh.
I sad to hear that you're having such a time. I'm sure it's great to hear that all should be fine in 4-6 weeks, but I also know the sigh of relief won't truly come until you get that clean sonogram. I'm praying for you all. Hang in there.
F@*&#... sorry for the bad language but I do feel it is quite appropriate!! Man... like there isn't enough to worry about when you are pregnant!!! Sooo glad the both of you have pulled through.. phew :)
Left a message for you to see how the testing went. I am glad to hear that everything went well and it was nothing serious.
