26 Weeks 1 Day

After I posted last week, my infection got worse.  I was in so much pain I could barely walk or sleep.  I called my doctor's office and told the receptionist, so she squeezed me in after lunch.  Apparently the antibiotics the clinic gave me were an "odd choice" for a bladder infection, according to Dr J and my pharmacist.  I got a prescription for the antibiotics I usually get for these infections, and came home to sleep.

It took a few days of excruciating pain, but I finally started feeling better.  Even a week later, I still feel like the infection isn't completely gone, but the pain is, so I'll see what Dr J says this week.

Nemo is starting to move more and more--not more often, but more big, noticeable moves.  Today has been a strange one;  s/he keeps poking me in the side, and I feel a lot of movement below my belly button.  Hoping the baby isn't trying to flip over!

Braxton Hicks have increased also, and it is getting the point where (like with Montana) if I bend over I have a contraction.  Makes it difficult to work!
