So it’s been a year and a half since I last posted. Things around here have been very busy and very interesting. Jacob was diagnosted with Autism less than a month before his 4th birthday and just two days ago we were also told that he has ADHD. Jacob’s been in a program that puts all his Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy and Behavioral Therapy all in one 3 hour session, 3 times a week with up to 5 other kids around the same age that also have Autism. All different areas of the Autism Spectrum, I don’t know how they do it.
And….other big news….Since I was told I had PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and we would never be able to get pregnant again…..Well, we’re pregnant. I’m 26w6d to be exact and it’s ….. a boy. We’re naming him Liam Edward Garfield and he’ll be here before Christmas. So ya, very very busy. I’m currently on bed rest, have been for over a month. It sucks!!!! I’m going crazy!!!! I was promoted at work to kitchen supervisor and was taking on alot of stress and standing non stop for sometimes 9 or 10 hours and by the time I came home I could barely stand to cook dinner without crying in pain. So one day I went to the ER and found out my I’m experiencing Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction…..More big words!!! YAY!!! I can’t have sex, I can’t chase after Jacob, I can’t climb stairs, I have difficulty driving, I have problems putting pants on, underwear causes me soooo much pain since it hugs my pelvis and sleeping, sometimes even just sitting, brings me to tears, the list goes on. BUT almost over….baby’s being born early by c section and my tubes are being tied….*sigh*
Jeff is still working graveyard shift…I’m trying to get him to look for a better job where he can be home more, especially with Baby Liam coming soon. Anyway, I’m off to watch House while I can. I’ll continue writing this post another time.
Thanks for reading!!
