Jill and Larsen called us on Father's Day to tell us that Jill was pregnant and that they were expecting a baby in February. So exciting. And crazy that we are old enough to be grandparents.
Jill had to tell a few people pretty early that she was pregnant because she was not well. She was puking and puking. It is actually a good thing she didn't get pregnant until right after she graduated from college because it would have been tough to finish as sick as she was.
She called her doctor and he sent a prescription for her, but when Larsen went to pick it up it was going to be $600 for one month and her insurance wasn't going to cover it. So they didn't get it. The next day the pharmacy called and told her that there were two over-the-counter things she could take that were basically the same ingredients. But one was a sleeping pill, which did not go good. It made her sleep restlessly and have terrible dreams.
I text our friend Eve Verdon, who is a midwife, and she gave us some tips. I called our doctor in Canada and asked how much it would for him to write a prescription of diclectin for her and I asked Sarah to ask her husband how much it would cost to buy the pills without insurance. The doctor said no problem and sent the prescription to the pharmacy. He sent a prescription for 300 pills and it cost $220.
So we took them down when went to see Jill, and it helped her a lot.
They waited until they had their ultrasound and found out they were having a boy, and then they posted these cutest pictures announcing that they were having a baby!
Lucy has been a mission ever since to brainstorm baby names for them.
