The third trimester is upon me, bringing with it severe anaemia. Well, I don't know HOW severe but this is when it suddenly dropped with Fatbum so I'm guessing that's why I feel like I've been poleaxed. I saw my midwife on tuesday and she thinks I'm probably losing a lot of blood via my nose, since I have a pretty much continuous nosebleed, usually with clots. I SNORT IT BACK all day. It's horrible. I'm having my bloods done tommorow. It's all routine, but I also need a clotting screen and iron profile. BAH! I say bah, but I really hope my B12 and Hb levels have dropped to a level that is OK to prescribe at. My B12 is just above borderline and my Hb is 11.3. Since then, I've had a terrible stomach bug, so hopefully that's driven me down.
I must be the only person who HOPES to be clinically anaemic every blood test!
I've also had a dental infection. Need to try and get to a dentist next week and I've been prescribed valium. ONE dose only, but it should get me over the initial panic.
My ex is moving away on saturday. This GALLS me. He's not moving very far, it's an hour in bad traffic, but he's still leaving the area when I'm 6 months pregnant and NEED his support the most. I know why he's moving (and he's moving with HER which sucks even more), but I wish he would wait til after the birth.
Aside from that and our total inability to discuss what happened, he's actually being moderately supportive. His parents are unbearable - they treat Fatbum as their own, don't acknowledge our split or the baby and offer very little support to me. I dread them. Luckily, so does he, for the same reason.
He still doesn't really interact with bump, but he's getting much better.
I wonder what will happen when the baby's born? I really think it's going to utterly evaporate the stasis we've managed to work our way round to.
Less than three months now until he makes his exit, unless he's late. Which he probably will be. I reckon he'll be born april 16th.
