Hi everyone,
I am now a little more than halfway through my pregnancy....21 weeks as of Thursday. I am doing VERY well - with no "visible" MS symptoms. My only "symptom" at this time (and for the past 16 weeks) is that I am exhausted. I suppose the fatigue is not much different than the MS fatigue, though I am able to work through it better than I was able to do with the MS fatigue. Of course, in addition to being pregnant, the last few weeks I have also been working 50+ hours a week and have an almost 4 year old running around at home! So, needless to say, things aren't in my favor to get a good night's sleep. (having to pee 4x a night does not help things at all. lol) But even with the extreme fatigue, I do not have the other symptoms that would often accompany the fatigue (headaches, double vision, vertigo, etc.) so I am VERY happy about that. The heat is just starting to hit here in Southern California. (Our hottest month is actually September). But then again we did hit triple digits today and it's expected to get hotter as the week progresses (hotter than 105?! I'll be inside, thank you very much!) I remain very pleased with my decision(s) to undergo HiCy (twice). I believe it has altered my disease course...for now...and I guess time will tell. As a benefit of pregnancy, my hair is growing like crazy!! So it's growing in nicely and FAST now. Which I really like and feel like I will be back to my old long hair much sooner thanks to baby.  Speaking of baby, tee hee....it looks like SUGAR AND SPICE AND EVERYTHING NICE....  a little girl will be joining us right around Thanksgiving (due date is actually thanksgiving!). I still do lurk around the boards...but don't feel I have much to add as I'm not really struggling (or dealing) with the MS right now. I just continue to hope that I do NOT have a post partum flare. Again, time will tell. Hoping everyone is well....and staying cool this summer. ~Keri |
