Progress:
- At the appointment last week with my midwife, their scale showed I gained 4 pounds. I was nervous about gaining 4 lbs in two weeks but she said its fine since I am still just trying to gain back all that was.
 - Tapering the IV hydration. Down to just half a liter a day
 - Also trying to taper the IV zofran, with the goal of getting this thing out of my arm
 - Spending time with Madison again during the day so Greg can work
 - Some creative energy is returning as well
 - Was able to make it out of the house and to my sister in law's baby shower all by myself
 
Struggles:
- Still many food aversions and smell sensitivities
 - Heartburn
 - Finding a comfortable position for resting/sleeping
 - Drinking water throughout the day
 - Shortness of breath ( already?!?!)
 - Round ligament pain
 - Low energy on a good day, down right exhausted most of the time
 
Random other things:
- Realized that the next time I see Madison's pediatrician for a well child check, I will have another baby with me
 - Really want to be somewhere warm so I can swim. The idea of gym pool sounds repulsive to me right now (when the warm weather comes they take the roof off which makes it more bearable)
