Countdown to D day

Now as you have read, you know that I am patiently and uncomfortably waiting for Dec 2 to arrive. By this time I have been off work for a couple of weeks and I have been enjoying some time with Keagan before his life changes forever. The week of Thanksgiving rolls around and that Monday was my 29th birthday. Only 2 weeks to go... Tuesday late afternoon I got a migraine headache, felt like someone was trying to nail a nail into my eyebrow of my left eye. Nothing I did helped. The next day I called the dr office and the dr was out delivering a baby so the nurse practioner told me to start taking some Mucinex to hopefully start breaking up my congestion and make my headache go away. So I started that Wednesday night. By this time I am so miserable... I can't hardly stand to be in the light, sounds are making me want to cry and I am now taking meds that aren't doing a dang thing for my headache. Thursday rolls around and we go over to my parents house for Thanksgiving dinner. I am still waiting to the medicine to start working, its not!!! I look and feel like crap, and I just keep thinking that I only have one more week to go. Craig and I go home that night and again I am still waiting for my headache to ease up a little. Craig has to work on Friday, so I wait in bed until Keagan gets up. We head out to the living room and every little noise and the light is making my head want to explode. Now I realize as I lay on the couch that my vision is blurring in and out in my left eye. I decide that I want to go over to my parents house, my grandmother is there and I figure that Keagan can see her again before my parents take her home. I finally decide to call my dr, he isn't very happy to hear that I have such a horrible headache and about the blurry vision. He tells me that I need to go have my blood pressure checked. So my dad drives me up to my mother in law's work and her boss takes it. He is EMT and we were a little shocked by the numbers...185/120. We get back to my parents house and I call Dr. Penman back. He tells me that it is time to have a couple of babies. I call Craig and tell him that he needs to come home and we get the Keagan issue taken care of. My mom and dad kept him until he could go over to Grammy and Popper's to spend the night.
