Ugh! Me and pregnancy don't get along, I guess! I want to get along
with it... I LOVE being pregnant, but aparently being pregnant doesn't
like me.
I'm having a rough week.
Monday morning I woke up and my stomach/
intestines hurt and I spent a lot of the morning on the toilet. The
rest of the day I had bad cramps in my uterus, like period cramps that
lasted pretty much all day constantly. I just so happened to have a
Dr's appt that day so when I went in I mentioned to him what was
happening and so he checked my cervix and did a Fetal Fibronectin
Test, which is a test that predicts if you're likely to go into labor
in the next 2 weeks. My cervix was closed and hard (good news) and
the test came back negative (also good news). So he said that it was
probably a stomach virus of some sort and to take it easy. Well, that
was good news. But yesterday I woke up and had the same cramping all
day constantly and nothing helped the pain. Not Tylenol, not laying
down, not taking a hot shower... nothing. I called my Dr's office to
see what I should do about the pain and unfortunately my Dr was in
surgery all day, and the nurses weren't sure what to tell me. So I
had a miserable day! Being in pain and having to take care of a 1
year is NOT easy!! I should have gone to my mom's but the thought of
sitting in the car for 20 minutes wasn't appealing. So here we are
today. I woke up feeling ok, but it didn't take long for the pain/
cramping to resurface again. It hasn't gotten as bad yet, but the day
is young. I plan to call my Dr around noon if I'm still feeling bad,
and he'll probably tell me to go to labor and delivery to get checked
out. I just want to know what's wrong and feel better! And even
though I don't show signs of going into preterm labor, according to
the tests, I'm still a little worried because those tests were
negative when I went into preterm labor with Keira.
So, yeah. I think I'll be adopting my next baby. No joke. This is
to hard!!!
