Jo • Mon, Jul 31 • Patiently waiting on ms. Rayne Lei. 3/24/18 Hi! Medic. One with vibes. Cooking machine.

So let me tell you guys the craziness that has been life lately.

So July 8-10 I was hospitalized for what I now know hyperthyroidism. I'm talking I had been itching like crazy. The only relief I would get was from using a brush to scratch my skin. Not my proudest moment. During my stay I was told over and over that I was not to continue trying to conceive due to the medication being extremely dangerous for fetal development in the first trimester. I was broken. I was so hurt because me and my fiancé had been trying since October of '16 and our wedding dates for 10-20-18.

Finally I was discharged yet was sleeping all day the following week. By the next week I couldn't even go to work because I was so dizzy and nauseated. By this time I was freaking out because maybe my meds were too harsh. After no answers from the nurses I finally decided to go back to my family physician.

The nurse asked me did I want to take a test which of course I declined because the one in the ER was negative and that was only two weeks ago. But nooo my fiancé said to take it just in case. So I reluctantly do so. I figured it'd be the norm. A negative and by now I was completely numb to it. I returned to my assigned room and waited for my physician. Thirty minutes go by and no doctor. Finally they come in looking oh so concerned only to tell us that I was pregnant. Could you believe it?! After all this time (and medications) I got a surprise positive. Since I've gotten my blood positive I've been nauseous non stop lol. I have my first sonogram tomorrow and I'm nervous and excited but not more excited than my fiancé.

All I'm saying is keep trying ladies. It'll happen!
