Lots of pain...
posted 21st Jun '12
Im staying the night at my grandparents house with the girls (grandparents had watched the girls while I went to my appointment today, they get picked up to go to their Dad's tomorrow and I wanted to save gas money, so we stayed the night).
Anywho, my grandparents went out to eat earlier, the girls started acting up, and even though I KNOW I shouldnt have, I ended up picking each of them (one at a time) off the floor and carried them the short distance to the couch for time outs...
Cerclage = lifting restrictions....
I am now in so much pain I can hardly walk... I have to shuffle my feet and hold onto the wall to move. To top it off, Im having contractions that seem pretty frequent and sooooo much painful pressure.
No blood though.
Im in bed now laying on my side and chugging water.
What is your opinion (besides how absolutely stupid I was... because Im already regretting that)...
Should I wait it out and try to sleep it off and see how I feel tomorrow? See if I can make it to my appointment Monday morning and just relax and stay off my feet and let SO take care of me all weekend? Wait until the blood shows up... because Ive been told by EVERY Dr that I WILL bleed if I start to tear or my cerclage starts to pull from any extra dilation etc....
Ive been in pain this pregnancy, but NOT this much... this is a whole new level... like a 9 out of 10.

Eeek, I would just stay off your feet until you see the doctor and of course if any bleeding happens between that time I would go to the hospital.

I dont think I could drive right now and everyone is asleep... Britton will call off work tomorrow if I need him... so Im wondering if I can make it to tomorrow and see how Im feeling and have him take me to the local hospital to be checked out... Ive been to the hospital so many times this pregnancy and everyone says there is nothing anyone can do until I start bleeding from the cerclage tearing or my water breaks... Its driving me crazy and making me very reluctant to go into any L&D. Ugh...
I should probably text my SO and let him know whats going on shouldnt I?

Ill try the bath and then lay back down. Contractions arent letting up and Ive been too afraid to move my legs because I dont want to hurt more.... SO said he wants me to try to get some rest and see how I feel in the morning, and he will take off work to go to the hospital with me if Im feeling the same in the morning.
So I guess thats the game plan... for now anyway. If I start bleeding at all or my water breaks (from these damn painful contractions) then Ill be calling an ambulance to take me to the hospital asap.
