A lil scare



Well i spent the day in hospital on saturday.. I woke up feeling really sick and had a very bad headache, I hadnt felt Logan move all night and was getting tightenings so i rang the midwives and they told me to come straight down, so I got dressed and organised and told Mike to stay home with Marlie as it was probably just my BP playin up and i should be back home soon... well i get there at 11am and they thought i was in preterm labour, they were erratic but being 29 weeks they didnt want to take any chances, My doc came finally at about 4.30, he had been caught up at another hospital with 2 ceasers and a problematic induction but kept ringing to see how i was so i was being monitored by the midwives and him via phone, The pains in my tummy were so intense I hadnt eaten anything all day as the middys were playin the "just in case" card so hadnt given me anything, no pain relief, food nothing.. just water! i finally got 2 panadiene forte from him and he let me have them waited for them to settle in and then took me for a scan, and depending on what he could see in there would determie if i had to have the internal.. Turns out well i wasnt in pre-term labor and Logan is fine and has turned to head down position so from the scan he could see around my ceaser scar and other scar tissue i have in the area from my 8 other abdominal surgerys ( laps due to endo) the tissue had all ripped away from there, apparantly i have very touchy scar tissue due to all the freakin surgerys ive had and the previous ceaser, so now he wants to book me in for another ceaser, he doesnt think my uterus will make it thru labour, so any hope of a VBAC has basically been thrown out the window.. I see him again tuesday and will discuss it more with him then, Its all good though, ill deal with it just like everythin else, as my last ob said "most women can give birth in the middle of a field.. your just not one of them" go me.. doc wanted me to stay overnight but i wanted to come home.. so i did, they never actually admitted me so i figured why pay the excess just to stay the night when i was ok enough to come home, but i was under strict if anythin happens or it gets worse to come straight back instructions, got home at about 7, had some dinner as i hadnt eaten since 9am, had a shower, threw up my dinner while i was in the shower (gross) and then almost passed out, my hubby reckons the water was too hot, so i just went straight to bed after that, (oh and i forgot to say hubby had taken our daughter to his mums at about 2 and had been with me from then at the hospital) i had no idea i was in lala land from the panadiene on the previously empty tummy.. so bring on tuesday and will see where i stand i guess... oh and my BP was good 130/80 i think? and no protein so no sign of pre eclampsia so far *hooray*
