Week 5: Blessed but in pain.

Week 5 has hit me like a sack of potatoes.

I have been incredibly sleepy and nauseous all week, actually got sick once this week- right before our first OB appointment (5wk3days). May have just been nerves or the fact I am in pain- but I couldn't even shower without getting sick. =(

I also have been fighting, what I think is an abscessed tooth =( Same tooth I just had crowned in February and begged the dentist to pull or root canal it..now at 5 weeks pregnant I am nervous on hurting my baby with meds, xrays and whatever else the doctor has to do. =/ but I have not slept in two days because of the THROBBING pain on the whole left side of my face.

& I swore I wasn't going to take any meds- def. not this early but I have popped regular Tylenol 4 times and benadryl just for some sleep relief...praying I am not making a mess of my growing baby. =( I even rubbed clove oil on my tooth- then AFTER read the bottle which stated "not for pregnant woman"

yes, I freaked. I called the doctor and brushed off the oil 5-6x praying that it had done nothing to my sweet little baby. Nurse said it was too late to do anything now- but using only 1/4 of oil on my tooth- the probability of anything happening is very low. I still am freaking out- praying everything is okay.

so doctors appointment at 3pm and praying she will not do anything but give me antibiotics and WAIT till 2nd trimester to do anything.

Upside of this week- first OB appointment was yesterday (6/19) Vernon was restless because we sat there for 2 hours just to be handed some paperwork to go get my blood work. We sat another 45 mins there but it was worth it. :) maybe not the 6 vials of blood taken from me- but to know that I am healthy and so is baby M, I will do anything! :)

Next appointment is Wednesday 6/27. The appointment I am NOT looking forward too at all. Exam appointment. BOO! =P but knowing that 2 weeks after that I will have my first ultrasound, I am excited :) Can't wait to hear my baby's heartbeat!
