33 1/2 weeks (yes.... give me my half week)

So I went to the Doctor yesterday, and decided to bring up the crazy craving again. I told him how I was crazy and could not stop thinking about dirt and chalk, and the only way to help it go away was to eat ice. He looked at my chart, and low and behold, told me I am anemic, and need to start taking Iron pills with my prenatals. Ummm that would have been nice to know a long time ago! He said once I start taking them, the craving should go away. We will see.

I was thinking that might be the problem with those weird cravings. I talked to some people and that is what they had told me. I meant to tell you. Anyway, I hope that they figured it out and you can stop wanting chalk and dirt. So funny!!! I am so excited you are getting so close yeah for you!!

No way! Good thing you brought it up again!!!

Hahaa...You know how there is a word verification on your blog for when I leave a comment? The word I have to type in is "dinglyho". I don't care who you are, that's funny.

Um ya that would have been nice to know what like 33 1/2 weeks ago! Taking an iron pill might be a little easier than downing a box of chalk. And no kidding on the half weeks, pregnant women should get credit for half minutes! Let me know if there is anything I can help ya with, we will be down in a couple weeks and I would love to help ya out if you need. Take care

I knew it! Didn't I say iron? Why am I not making the big bucks? Oh, by the way I've been drinking soy proteins shakes lately which at times can be pretty chalky. You should give that a go!
