So this precious little one is already causing me problems. Like everyone says they start young I guess. So on Tuesday morning Todd and I were at the beach with my parents and we had to come home early Tuesday morning to come back to work. So we left the beach at 6 in the morning and we didn't even make it out of the parking lot before I had to throw up. NOT FUN. So then I slept for two hours and right when we pulled into our driveway I was lucky enough to throw up again. I was getting upset because their was nothing in my stomach to throw up so it was not a fun feeling. I have had morning sickness before but I usually just throw up once and I feel better. Well this day decides to be different.
So while Todd is in the office working I am laying down to get some rest and of course I get to throw up again. My nice hubby makes me some soup and I sip on it and eat some crackers but thirty min later it is all up again. By this time I am getting worried because my stomach is just in so much pain and not just the regular sick pain but something is wrong. So I contact my nurse to talk to them and they want me to go to the urgent care to get checked out. In my head I am like hmmm is it worth it to go or should I wait it out. I hate going to urgent care because it always takes forever. But I thought of my baby and I wanted to make sure everything was all right with it so I went. Todd was just one happy camper to go with me ;-)
So we finally get there and it takes about an hour before I go into the back and they weigh me. I get onto the scale and I have noticed I have lost 10 pounds!! I was like sweet didnt know I needed to get pregnant to lose the weight. So I ended up getting some blood work and they hooked me up to an IV to get myself hydrated again. My arms are now black and blue from all the poking but im officially not scared of needles anymore. The doctor comes in and wants to check the babies heartbeat to make sure it is ok and that was so nice to be able to hear my baby again and yes it brought tears to my eyes again. Then the doctor was like ok I want to check your cervics to make sure it is closed and not open cause if it is open then you are pretty much going to have a miscarriage. UGH OK way to freak a mother out dude!!! But everything was A okay.
Then the doctor wanted me to talk to a surgeon because I was having some pain in my side and they thought it might be my appendix and when they took my blood there was a hint of infection in it. In my head I was like great you have to be kidding me. Then I got scared because even though Todd was with me my mom was two hours away and you all know you like to have your moms with you if something like this happens. (sidenote, while we were keeping my parents informed I found out later that they already have checked out of their hotel and were getting ready to come back to Bakersfield at ten at night) So finally the surgeon comes in and tells me that he doesn't want to operate on me right now (yea wasn't going to let him anyways) but he wanted to check me into the hospital for the night to give me more fluids and do some more tests and then see how I felt in the morning. Good thing Todd was with me because we helped the doctor realize that I was doing better after the fluids and anti-nasuea medicine they gave me and it would probably be better for me to sleep at home and get up in the morning and go do the more tests. Thank goodness the doctor was agreeing to this also because I did not want to spend the night in the hospital. So we are finally able to leave and by this time it is 10:30 at night and we got there around 5. Todd was so good during this time and was so sweet to me.
So the next morning I had to go in at eight and get more blood drawn and see the doctor again and everything came back good, thank goodness. The doctor told me to still be cautious of my body and to rest all day today which sounds good to me. All I know is this little one is going to get it when they are ready to come out :-) but this little is well worth it, I would do it all over again for it. :-) So hopefully no more urgent care trips for me, one was enough.
