Quick update

Well that was scary. I was still gushing at the ER. Enough for them to iv me up and prepare me for the worst. Top that off I had two pregnant nurses. Anyway. Baby is wonderful, seemed to be waving at us as a matter of fact. So while I'm freaking out and going crazy its nice to know its still comfy in there. They still don't know what happened. I spent forever at ultrasound so they could look for a subchronic bleed, or some blood pooled up under the placenta. Nada. What they do know is that prior to these bleeding episodes I feel a lot of pressure, so for the next few days I'm supposed to rest as much as I can and when/if I start to feel the pressure head in right away even if I'm not spotting. Is it possible I have such randomly bad luck? Okay back to the couch before mr. fatty gets upset.

What relief. I hope that things start to get better for this pregnancy so that you can actually enjoy it and stop being on edge and scared. Still my prayers are with you. Rest up.

Take as much rest as you need! The less movement the better... maybe when you are asleep and you feel this pressure, you should try to wake up and relax your body... I know it's hard (I have this happen every cycle, about 4 days before my period comes, I experience pressure and tightening which isn't comfortable. I have to wake myself up to make it stop.... usually takes about 10 minutes to relax and then I go to sleep again)...

Ohhhhh, I'm not trying to freak you out by saying it always leads to periods, I'm just saying it's a type of pressure and that's how I need to release it!

I'm SO thankful things are fine. When I read the entry, I'm sure you were at the hospital still and I was prayin'! HOpe things are good and stay good the rest of your pregancy! *chin up!*

Rest! Rest!! Rest!!! That had to have been a very stressful experience for you. :(

I hope that all bleeding disappears, and you can focus on that little one (waving at you no doubt!).
