Valentines Day was definately memorable this year. Tim had to work late and being as I’m a slow pregnant person I decided I would still do our annual heart pizza and make him dinner. I came home from work to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers and the movie, “Hairspray” which I LOVE and he doesn’t but he loved me enough to let me enjoy it anyway.
This year because pizza is making my wussy pregnant self sick I made Tim’s favorite fruit pizza and a salmon salad as he had told me he missed having them all the time. (Salmon makes me sick too.
Poor Tim is so deprived because of me!) This is how our night started (at 11pm) and I was excited to spend some time with him.


After Tim had a chance to eat we started watching my movie (even though he was exhausted from being at school and work all day but I was dying to see it again!) and pretty soon I started feeling sick. Thinking I was going to throw up I went to the bathroom and within seconds was in excruciating pain. I started screaming for Tim and immediately asked him for a blessing and to rush me to the hospital. Poor Tim had to basically carry me down the stairs as these contractions were knocking me right to the floor. Turns out I was having strong contractions every 2-3 mins! After being given yet another shot to start the contractions I was feeling very sick again and ended up vomiting all over the hospital bathroom and myself. Yuck. We finally got the contractions to stop and went home at around 4:30 am. We’re still trying to keep him in until March 10th (34 weeks) but he seems to have other plans. Luckily I am now terrified of when he actually comes and they let me have him!
All in all, minus the crazy contractions and the night at the hospital we had a nice Valentines Day.
