B is for Bloating

I am SO bloated. Enough said.




























































OK, maybe not enough said, but I am very bloated. Painful, can't help myself, waddling, hard to "wipe" after tee-tee'ing bloated (TMI but oh well). My belly/waist has grown to 36 inches I don't know what to do!

Pics of "the belly" don't really even begin to tell the story.

These were taken yesterday. I called the nurse today and she said (in a nutshell) to drink tomato juice. Being the good girl that I am, I raaaaaaaaaan out and got 3 bottles of V-8 (not the itty bitty cans, the 12 or 16 oz, whatever) and drank 2 of them. I've still got the 3rd that I need to down but Ugh! the saltiness is just wayyyy too much for me. Result: Nada, nil, nothing, nunca! (sp?) Should I bother with the 3rd bottle? Uh, no! How about gatorade! I'll try that next. Hubby is taking me to Walgreens to pick up some pics th I'm having developed so I'll pick up some hatorade while I'm there. Oops, errr, ummm. I mean gatorade.

BTW, looking back at that 2nd pic, you can barely see my vivelle patch (they're see-through but you can see the outline from the lint on them-LOL!)

Today, took more pics, still don't really tell the story of my pain. And to think, If I am preggers, I'm really only about 3 weekd 5 days


that is just a sick sick pic of me, and to think I'm broadcasting it for the world to see....HI!


Well, such is the tale of my 6th day post blast transfer. Hubby thinks its gone down some, from the pic it kind of does feel like it, 'cept that I'm still measuring 36 inches at the waist, same as yesterday....I want my waist back (or not, if I'm preggers!)
