Well once again I’ve let my blog slip, but with good reason this time. I thought I was coming down with a cold last week and tried to take it easy for a few days. When it seemed it was getting slightly better, we ended up taking a quick trip down to Minneapolis for the weekend to do some shopping and registering for baby things. The whole weekend I gradually felt worse and couldn’t taste or smell anything due to my plugged up sinuses. By the time we returned home I felt probably the worst I’d felt since the whole thing began, so I finally gave in and headed to the doctor. Turns out that was a good decision, because I ended up having a bacterial sinus infection! The only way to treat it quickly is pregnancy safe antibiotics, so I was put on those right away. Finally! I’m on my second dose and haven’t quite felt the effects yet, but I hope to be back on my feet once it really starts to kick in. In the meantime, I’ve been unable to do much but lie on the couch, so I apologize if a few things have fallen behind! Being sick on top of being pregnant hasn’t been the easiest, especially when I can feel that nesting instinct beginning. I’ve been too exhausted, so all I can do is throw everything in a pile to be organized when I start feeling better! (And that includes photography related things, too!)
One of the highlights of our trip to Minneapolis, though, had to be when we ended up getting a 3D ultrasound! I had always wanted to do one and by chance there was one appointment left on Sunday morning so we got in and were able to see just a glimpse of our baby’s face for the first time. It was absolutely incredible! On the left we got a good peek at his facial features, center another 2D profile shot, and right, his hand in a fist. These will have to do until I can take pictures of him myself. I can’t wait… only 6 weeks to go!
