Mmmmm Fish

So I had a friend tell me on FB that I shouldn't be eating fish b/c I'm prego. Well to tell you the truth I've always thought this also, but a few months ago I was doing some researching and found out that you can! It's even GOOD for you to. :-) You just have to watch what kinds of fish and the amounts that you eat. You can have 12oz of LOW mercury fish per week. So today I had just that. Well I don't think it was the full 12oz, lol, but I did have some fish. Sushi yummy! The sushi I get is cooked. I'm still a little weary of trying the raw fish. Though I've read that Japanese women eat sushi during their whole pregnancy, raw & cooked, and their babies come out fine. O_o Anywho.... Here is the website where I found out what fish was ok & what wasn't. What kinds of fish you can have 12oz/wk and what kinds are just 9oz/wk and others that are 4.5oz/wk (technically the last two are /mth I just divided dwn into wks). It also tells you what fish to absolutely avoid! <3

Well I'm still feeling that weird bloated feeling. Not to mention my back/legs have been having shots of pain/uncomfortableness whenever I'm sitting up. I mean gah I used to think my back bothered me, but now... man o man. I've pulled my lower back about 3-4 times since last September & the last time was the worst. It happened about 1.5-2mths ago. I'm not sure if I was actually pregnant when it happened or not, but it was right around that time. It knocked me out in the floor to where I couldn't move. Then after a few days it went away. Then I got sick... like flu type sick w/ a high (for me) fever of 100.5. My normal temp is 97.6 or lower. Of course now that I'm prego its usually 98.6ish which just means I feel hotter and more sweaty everyday. *yuck* Anyways the Dr. on base gave me vicodin. I took 2 then, 1 later that day & totaled out to about 8 that I took. I know that some of those were after I was definitely prego. I took 1 a night or 2 before I found out. :-/ I just hope that it was early enough that it didn't harm the baby any. Of course I worry way too much about stuff like that. I know/heard of people that didn't find out until 3-4mths in & were drinking and partying & their kids are fine. So all I can do is just wait & see. I'm so anxious for my Dr Appt. O_O Well time to try & sleep.... *yeah right* Another thing that's happened to me lately, I'm sleepy allll day but then I can't sleep at night until late. Never when I want to around 11. Oh well.
