i may have an enlarged prostate.

i'm sure you've all seen the commercials. avodart, flomax, etc. so as it turns out, i have all the symptoms! look:

* Feeling the need to urinate frequently
* Difficulty starting to urinate
* Difficulty emptying your bladder completely, and because of this, urine may dribble after you are done
* The stream of your urine is weak and may start and stop
* Urinating two or more times in the middle of the night
* Sudden strong urges to urinate
* Urinary issues get in the way of daily life

holy cow! we'll definitely have to bring this up to the doctor at our checkup tomorrow.

OK, but don't handle the Avodart. You just may be pregnant!

Sorry Megan, I have to agree with Kate...it's probably the 6lbs-ish ever growing baby sitting on your bladder!!

Just a note that we are thinking of you, Derek and baby and very excited for you!!!
