Oh what a day…. On a “good” note, I was able to take a little field trip today. On a bad note, my field trip was to the hospital 🙁 Don’t worry- Junior and I are both fine! It all started yesterday afternoon when I started having contractions at 5-6 minutes apart for about 45 minutes. This has happened one other time, about a week ago. Just as I was getting ready to call the doctor, they seemed to broaden out and lose the pattern. I had contractions throughout the night and this morning. The contractions are also different than what they have been the past 6 weeks, so I emailed my nurse friend for some advice. She promptly emailed back and said to CALL THE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. I did and just as urgently as Nurse Amanda, my doctor’s office told me to head to the hospital right away.
Junior always makes things interesting :(
Long story short, Junior has a strong heart beat and is moving all over the place so he is GOOD. I, however, have an infection that I started taking antibiotics for this afternoon. If not treated, it apparently could “lead to pre-term labor”….. Hmmmmmm… But wait, I’ve been in pre-term labor now for 6 weeks??!!?! It’s one thing after another with this little baby boy.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
P.S. Incase anyone is wondering just how bored I am, I recently started to tivo Dr. Phill. Sad, sad, sad….
