Just kill me now

Through all the stress of the past few days I only had a bad headache thats been tolerable.... I finally got a full night's sleep last night and woke up with a headache.

That headache is now officially the migraine from heck. I have all the classic symptoms. I told my Step-daughter that its not fair.... I'm not the pregnant one yet I have morning sickness.

I'm hoping the doctor's office has samples of a good migraine med for ME because I'm not going to make it through the day. I'm shaky, light smell & sound sensitive, and nausea is making me run to the bathroom every 5 minutes. I can't even retreat to bed like I typically do because we have to leave to take Pouncer for his vet recheck (paws crossed he has no more crystals) then we have to run him home and run her out to the long pre-natal doctor's visit. Then back out to school to discuss whats going to happen with that for her. Then I have to make sure I'm back home by 3:00 so I can be at work as a dog trainer by 4:00.

hmmmm... is it a wonder why I have this migraine?

Stress triggers headaches and in particular migranes...
Take it easy and look at the bright side... at least she's 18 and not 13 or 14.

Kim, things will get better! I promise! (I think) Just take it easy, sounds like you need a rest from all the excitement of the past few days, sweet lady, so do try to take it easy for awhile.

Kim,
Sorry about the migraine!!!

But, I have some concerns with the meeting at school. Are they intending to deny her the ability to finish out the year? I worked up to Friday, and delivered Jonah on a Tuesday (Monday was labor day holiday). Pregnancy is NOT a medical condition, as I mentioned in the other thread. (I am assuming she is in public school...).

HUgs first off and 2nd know I'm praying for you guys today.

Feverfew is a good herbal medicine for migranes. Also, if you have where you are, there is an advil for migranes that works pretty well. I know all about stress headaches, seems I've had one for weeks now. Prayers that you are able to get thru this day without feeling too, too badly. Take care.

Jo, she doesn't want to finish out the year. This school is small and the people are vicious. I don't blame her and I wouldn't want to go through the whispers and cruel words everyone is going to hurl at her... and I'm an adult with a strong sense of self. She's a good kid who made a stupid mistake and is still in shock over the whole thing. Trust me when I say these kids AND teachers are not going to be as understanding as we are; they will be the exact opposite. Her sister came home from school yesterday saying how HORRIBLE the kids were to her about her sister and how she's glad she's not the one pregnant. She said she HOPES her sister doesn't finish out the year at school because of how awful everyone's going to be.

That all said, she DOES have enough credits to graduate if thats what the school decides to do. We are going to ask for at-home school work where teachers send everything to us and even come over once a week to work with her. They've done that for other girls. Hubby said it was then up to her if she wanted to march down the aisle for a diploma as a 9 month pregnant girl. If she does, she has more guts than I do!
