Positive results!

For those curious, things have definitely improved on the insomnia and breathing front. Not long after I called the midwives and found out I could take Benadryl, my nose started clearing some on its own (and now the congestion is mostly gone) and the 25 mg tablet of Benadryl pretty much completely knocked me out as well as clearing up any remaining congestion when I was trying to sleep. Last night we cut the 25 mg tablet in half since I felt a little groggy yesterday morning, and the half half dosage seems just about the right amount. I got plenty of sleep, my sinuses feel good and I am breathing a lot easier in more than one way. I'm also still trying to exercise more. I am doing 20-30 minutes of pre-natal yoga every day and going for at least 2 walks around my complex. It feels great to be more active and I am sure that is also helping me to feel better.

The baby is still being active and enjoys moving around in me. I have my next appointment on Tuesday, though I am thinking of also finding a general practitioner to just make sure everything is OK.

Though it could also just be a cold since my husband also has a bit of a cold right now.
