Update from last post: my sore throat ended up being nothing. I think it was just allergies, not strep throat, thank goodness! I went to San Saba for the weekend and had a really great time hanging out with my family. I'm so glad I went. I ate entirely too much food but I always do when we have family get-togethers! Ella was kicking me so hard that my family could see my belly moving underneath my dress!
Pretty much my entire pregnancy I've been getting nosebleeds everyday. I've read in my pregnancy books and heard from my doctor that this is completely normal. However, I developed a very large bump on the inside of my nose. The last few days I have noticed that almost my entire nasal passage is being blocked by it. I used a penlight to look in there last night and it scared me. I called the doctor this morning to tell him about it and he said it happens to lots of pregnant women. The combination of expanding blood vessels, higher blood and mucus production, and my allergy problems is what is causing this. He gave me a few home remedies to try. When I go back to see him on the 30th, we will touch base about it again. But he doesn't seemed worried at all and told me not to worry. It definitely made me feel better to talk to him about it.
Everything else is going well. I'm feeling bigger and bigger everyday, and Ella is getting stronger all the time! LOVE MY BABY GIRL!
