This has been a LONG week at the Owings house! I have been suffering from my annual sinus infection/ear infection and WOW!!! Fortunately, there's lots of meds that you can still take even when pregnant. Poor Eli has been hopped up on Sudafed, Tylenol, Chlortrimeton and Robitussin! I missed work all week, and visited good ole Doc McMillin twice. After 2 antibiotics, nasal steroids, and Hydrocodone cough syrup I can finally say that I'm starting to breath again! YEA! FYI - I have discovered the best tissues.... Puffs Plus!! I highly recommend! Jay has been a wonderful nurse and hasn't complained once. How did I get so lucky! :)
We also went to visit Dr. McCullum (baby MD) this week and got an excellent report! Eli is right on target weight-wise with a heartrate around 150. (I'm right on target weight-wise too!) My blood pressure is staying within normal range(104/48) and my iron level is back up. We are officially in our 3rd trimester and the countdown has begun! :)

This is such good news (about the pregnancy I mean). Not such good news about being sick! I certainly understand this, I got sinusitis lots of times when I was preggo and I was so paranoid about taking drugs. I hope you feel better soon! You guys are in the home stretch now!
