15 Weeks

This week I went back to work and I have to say it is definitely getting harder to lift my patient.  He is a sweetheart but he can't help me lift him at all and he about 60 pounds so transfers are starting to get difficult.  I will only be working for a few more weeks because after that it won't be safe for my patient, the baby or me.  I love my job and I have truly enjoyed working with this patient in his classroom but the health of all three of us, particularly the baby comes first so I will follow my doctor's recommendation.  I have definitely started to get tired more easily and find myself going to bed at 10:30 on work nights where I used to stay up until 11 or 11:30.  We didn't have any appointments or anything this week so there isn't really any news on the baby front.  We can't wait to get an ultrasound later this week to try to determine the gender of our little one!
