Burchell Bloat

So I take back everything I've written in previous posts about not having any symptoms and feeling great and not being affected. This week has been rough - bloat of the century! I look like I'm 5 months pregnant I'm so bloated but the weird thing is I have only gained 3 pounds so it's not like I've gained an obscene amount of weight to be this bloated. It's pretty uncomfortable bloat and I've been drinking water nonstop to try to flush out the rest but nothing seems to help. I read online that it's normal so I'm not worried about it but it is very uncomfortable and I am running out of stretchy pants and dresses to wear. Luckily it's the weekend and I foresee a good array of sweatpants in my future.

I can't believe the process will be complete in a short 17 hours!!

I thought this was a cute cartoon I found: all of the unplanned pregnancy blessings in the world, our baby will be the envy of all of his playmates...

    WOW KB! I really didn't know you were going through this procedure, of course not that you would ever broadcast this at work. How cool that you are documenting the steps along the way. I just read the entire blog and my heart goes out to you and Todd. You will have an amazing story to tell to your children one day. I love the cute comic strip about being "Way Wanted"...too cute. My prayers will def be with you along this journey. I couldn't think of anyone who deserves this more than you. You're such an amazing, bright and cheery person. I'll be following your blog and keeping my prayers going along the way. Stay positive girl! and take good care of yourself.
