What You'll Find Here:

Of course there will be pictures & videos of my beautiful boys, but I am also going to post information that I find helpful to share with my fellow mommies out there, either SAHM or working! I consider running the household my job, not just raising children, so it is my responsibility to save money wherever I can! One way I do that is with couponing. On average, I spend less than $80 per week on all our household needs. No, not just food. This is toiletries, paper goods, cleaning supplies, diapers, & anything else you can think of! And we don't do without around here! Most all of what I buy is name brand & very little is off-brand. There is nothing wrong with off-brand, but manufacturers put out tons of coupons to get you to buy their products.

15 Weeks & Still Sick

www.tips-fb.com

I know, I know. It has been a while! Wel, I have been pretty sick here lately, so that is my excuse! I was really sick on Sunday, then even worse on Monday. I was even vomiting water. I called my OB & he sent me on to the ER for IV fluids & anti-nausea meds. The entire time I was waiting, I was in aweful pain, having contractions. At 1st, I thought it was upset stomach, cramping up or something, but then I realized I knew exactly what it was. Luckily, the fluids stopped it though. It was just from the dehydration. The next day, which was 15 weeks, I took this pic of my belly. It was looking quite flat. When I woke up that morning, I sure didn't look preggo. All the fluids seemed to flush out everything. Crazy! I have been sick off & on everyday this week, but I am relying on the anti-nausea meds. They really help. Since I have been taking the meds regularly, I have been able to eat & hopefully will have put some weight on this month. Normal weight gain for 15 weeks is about 10lbs, but I will be lucky if I have gained 2lbs so far. We will see on Tuesday when I have my 16 week appointment.
