Anyone remember me?

I am cautiously trying to come back and I say cautiously because I am overwhelmed with so many emotions but love the support I used to get from GPM. 

I was on here a lot with my last pregnancy and when my son was born I fell off the radar a bit. I was hoping to come back on now that my days are free but probably won't post quite as much as I did. I did an re-intro a month and a half ago to announce this pregnancy and shortly thereafter fell very ill with a rare muscle disease I didn't know I had. Was hospitalized for 4.5 weeks. Just came home this week. I am so excited to be back but a little nervous because I have some trauma with what I went through (was basically paralyzed 3 weeks ago). Right now baby is doing fine but higher risk and though I am thrilled to expand the family I am nervous with all that I have been through.

Sorry to have a mopey or drama filled intro. I just wanted to explain why I fell off the face of the earth when I last wrote and am hoping I can come back for the support and friendships I had here.

  • Glad that you are doing better and that the baby is okay. Hope the rest of your pregnancy and delivery goes smoothly.

    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.
  • So sorry you had to deal with that at all, let alone during pregnancy! I can understand having some trauma issues after going through something medically terrifying like that.

    Hope to see you around more!

  • Welcome back! I'm sorry to hear about what you have been going through but I'm glad you and the baby are doing well. Tell me to mind my own business if you want but what muscle disease were you diagnosed with? Also any recent pics of your boys? :)

  • Thanks ladies!!! I thought I'd post in here but not sure if anyone's still checking!!

    The boys are great! Have been with the grandparents the last month. KILLED me not to see them. Hudson is 3 and talking up a storm. Ethan is ten months now and standing on his own. So cute. I am 13 weeks pregnant. NT scan today.

    Not being nosey at all. I was diagnosed with dermatomyositis. VERY rare for someone my age. 

    THANK YOU ALL for the warm welcome!
