so i am almost 17 weeks now... my due date is april 15
i have successfully finally weened myself completely off my benzos!
although i take a half mg occassionally when i really freak out which my doc said was ok... risks vs benefits type dealio
i was able to stop taking my ADD meds... Vyvanase... the first week i found out i was pregnant... this then led to me gaining 7 pounds in one week...but thats what happens when you stop taking an appetite suppressant on a daily basis lol...at any rate my weight gain has stabilized to a normal rate...i am now 148 lbs at 5'4" which is totally healthy at this stage according to my doctor
but... i do still get very insecure... just have to keep telling myself i am pregnant and healthy
As much as my bf pisses me off sometimes especially when he drinks he is great other times and helps alot that he still thinks i am sexy and beautiful...
also if you have read any past blog entries i used to do alot of iv drugs and i drank like a sailor but now i am completely clean and sober!!!
The last two nights in a row though i had using dreams or should i say nightmares...
But maybe just maybe i am really changing things around!
