Oh, Baby!

Thanksgiving with the Ellwood family was really good :).
Baby and I had an adventure today.  First, we had cheesecake, which is an adventure in itself.  And we got to take a trip to Labor and Delivery at the hospital in Dover, Ohio. 
I was bleeding (again, for the third time in 5 weeks).
I wasn't having contractions.
Baby is ok- good heart rate, healthy fetal movement.
"They" keep saying it's probably placental damage that heals itself, and to watch it carefully and come back immediately if it happens again, or if I feel any tightening in my uterus.
*????*  It's just kinda frusterating.  Every 2 weeks I am bleeding (which they tell me is not normal), I HAVE had tightening in my uterus (which they tell me is not good at this stage) and yet everytime I go to get checked everything is A-OK  and they don't know what causes the placenta damage or whatever it is.  grrr.  I'm GLAD everything is ok-  it's just that I don't want to keep making emergency trips to the hospital every several days for unexplained bleeding, just to hear that it is unexplainable!  ...ya know?
Also, I had a sinus headache ALL day (literally, since I woke up at 7:30.  It hasn't gone away), which is also frusterating because I've been taking Amoxacillon for DAYS for a freakin sinus infection.  WHY won't it go AWAY? :-(  It makes me so grumpy.

...these are very small frustrations.  And I am THANKFUL for that! :-)  I have NO big worries.  I am in need of nothing.  I want for nothing.  The baby is good.  I'll kick this sinus problem- (I'll put up a fight and knock it out, I'm not kidding.  I've lived with it for 13-15 weeks and I'll do whatever it takes to make is STOP! ugh.)  I am alive and healthy (well, generally, haha).  My family is alive and healhy.  I have a warm apartment and a cozy bed to sleep in.  As a matter of fact, I am real thankful for that right now because I am about to pass out.

Night.
