Been feeling good this week, other then the headaches! I wanted to increase my iron supplements because I've feeling very tired and the headaches are really getting to me. It's like a pounding headache. Think of someone hammering the inside of your head. I had iron issues before becoming pregnant and my vitamins I take have iron in them but I feel like my body needed more especially with carrying two of them. Well I asked my doctor and she said that would be fine and it wont harm the babies. She also suggested putting an ice pack on my neck for headache relief so I tried that Thursday night and it actually worked! Going to definitely be trying that from now on!
I had an appointment with my OB on Thursday. It mostly involved talking about seeing the specialist and to ask about any pregnancy symptoms I'm having. I did get to listen to the heartbeats! There are definitely still two of them, because there are days I'm still in denial... LOL. One heartbeat was 128 bpm and the other was 150 bpm (any gender guesses??) and totally normal. She also did say that my uterus is measuring at 21 weeks, which could explain why I'm feeling bigger then I should. I'm still able to bend over and lift stuff, the only problems I've been having is tying the kiddos shoes at school. I can still do it but if I'm sitting I can't bend over as much as I use to because my belly is getting in the way so I usually have to have them sit on a chair or something and then lift their foot. I have to say it was comical trying to figure that one out as my co worker was chuckling at me but hey 2 minutes I got the kid's shoe tied
So going to try and make this sound uncomplicated as possible but we found a house we liked!
It's in Keizer 1550 sq feet, 3 bedroom has a garage, huge beautiful kitchen and extra space we could use as a family room! Pretty much this house is perfect for us, everything has been updated with brand new windows and paint job and really the only thing it needs is some yard work! Well we went to make an offer on the house but there were some finance issues. Apparently the neighbors behind this house decided to build a structure that crosses the house property line so because of that we can't get a loan! Well we have dealing with some legal stuff trying to figure out what the next step would be. It's been up there 26 years so we technically can't make them take it down, we were going to try and get the city involved and do an lot line adjustment and we would lose the 2 feet that the structure is on the property, and we figured since we really WANT this house and really NEED to move out of our current house, it was worth all the hassle. Well we just heard from our Realtor and she said that there is now written permission from the owner saying he allowed the neighbors to build that structure on the property so now it's less of a liability which means we can hopefully get a loan now! So now my loan person has to go through like 15 pages of legal documents before he will give us a loan so now we are waiting again. So much waiting and it's killing us! But in the end it will be all worth it and hopefully be able to own this beautiful home soon!
