I've got the PUPPS
My friend Christy called me yesterday and started mentioning that she didn't see me updating my blog as much as I had before....well truth be told, there isn't much for me to write about as of late because I am still pregnant, still hot, and still tired as ever. About the most interesting thing to happen to me is my new former skin rash that showed its ugly little head about a week ago. I started noticing that my stomach started to get little red blister like bumps everywhere. I thought that they might just be some sort of heat rash, but as the days went on, they were getting worse and more itchy. So I did a little bit of research and after consulting with my doctor, the conclusion was in...I've got the PUPPS. What are PUPPS you might ask? Well PUPPS stands for Pruritic Urticarial Papules and Plaques of Pregnancy. Never heard of it before, you say, well that's because only about 1 out of 200 women actually get this annoying rash. My doctor said he has only had one other patient who got it. The worst part is is that there is no cure, no relief except for the delivery of the baby! Needless to say, I haven't been out much and just try to stay inside to sleep away the itchiness until the baby is born. Logan had threatened to put mittens on my hands several times to try and stop me because I have sores now all over my poor stomach. Anyways, your prayers are needed so that I might bare this child and get rid of these stinky annoying PUPPS! I feel sorry for any of you who will or already have had to bare this annoying rash...all you can do is just go to sleep until the baby comes out!

So sorry, that sounds terrible! I was so shocked to see your baby countdown on the side bar only had *5* days to go! Hang in there, only a little longer and then you'll get to hold that yummy baby of yours and forget all you went through to bring him into this world. Good luck!
So sorry Jennilee, I hope Cache comes soon! I can't wait to see pictures of him. Good luck with everything. Keep sleeping, you will miss the long stretches of sleep you can get right now once Cache does decide to come!
