A couple weeks ago as I was leaving work I had pain behind/beside my belly button, and it was hard to walk. It felt like a walking cramp, but much worse. Last Monday night I got it again, right at bedtime. It was so painful I couldn't do anything, and just went to bed, hoping to sleep it off. When I woke up, I felt okay, until I got out of bed. I was doubled over in pain and couldn't walk because it was so severe. I couldn't even get Montana to school. We spent the day watching TV and relaxing, and the pain finally subsided in the afternoon. I have no idea what this pain is, but it's debilitating, so I will be mentioning it at my doctor's appointment next week.
On Thursday night we went for a tour at the hospital, that was fun! Every woman there was much further along than I, so I felt tiny. Montana learned a lot about the hospital, making ice packs for me, and we even got to see a newborn baby boy. It made it feel so real for me, and also made Montana and myself very impatient.
Friday morning I woke up at 5:00, and went to the bathroom. Afterward I was in severe pain yet again, but this time it was lower. I could not sleep, and had a bath with Epsom salts at 6:00 in the morning. I missed work yet again, and went to the clinic to get antibiotics for a bladder infection. I also had to go to the lab and give another sample for them to make sure I'm being treated for the right thing. I have been in pain since then. I have had so many infections in my life that I usually catch it from the onset, but I mistook the symptoms for pregnancy symptoms. Of course, Nemo thinks it's great fun to headbutt my bladder, so it has been an interesting weekend.
I may not get to see SD2 this week due to the infection, and that just plain sucks. I so look forward to seeing him every week, and after the week I had I could use some happiness. I was feeling very down last week, admittedly because I'm getting confused about my feelings for SD2, and I think it was because I was tired and worn out from fighting the infection. So it may be a good thing that I don't see him this week, just to get a reality check, but it still bums me out. I only have a couple months left before I have to say goodbye forever, and I want to see him as much as possible. I know, I know, I said I would keep my feelings out of it, and I have for the most part. I'll be fine after the baby comes, but right now I'm just confused.
Not much will be happening this week baby-wise, just hoping to get through a full week of work. Next week I'll see the doctor and get my RhoGam shot.
