My sister Tiffanie is having a baby girl really soon so my mom and I threw her a baby shower Sunday the 7Th. It was held in one of the most beautiful parks here in town, Horsely Park. The turn out was great. I planned a few games with prizes and my mom mad the most wonderful chicken salad sandwiches and fruit trays! Yummy to my tummy.. =) It was however, a little nippy and at the end of it, it began to rain really hard.. Tiffy (that is what we call her) received a ton of cute little dresses for her summer baby. Jayda is the name they picked out.. I LOVE IT.
After the baby shower Tiffy and Chris had planned on stopping by to help Rob clean up the tree he cut down at our house.. The tree was dead and since my husband is a tree trimmer for the power company, he cut it down without a problem!
But oh boy did it ever scare the daylights out of me to see him tied up in a tree with a running chainsaw.. I am so glad I don't see him at work!!! If I did, I am pretty sure he would no longer be working there.
I had decided to run to Kent's Marketplace to get some stuff to make chili for dinner for all of us after being in the rain.. I ran into my Aunt Marie and was talking to her for a minute when a cramping pain started shooting all the way through my back and down my right leg. I had to leave quickly. I was crying all the way home in so much pain. I got inside and just fell to the ground. I thought I was literally going to die. My greatest fear of getting pregnant again was that I would go through the same if not worse pain and troubles as my last pregnancy. WELL, sure enough, I AM..Rob took me into the ER and my white blood cell count was extremely high, so they were prepping me for surgery to remove my appendix. Right before taking me back to the OR I began to bleed. The fear radiated my entire body, knowing that if I miscarried this one I would never have the chance to have another because my doctor is doing a hysterectomy regardless I have this baby or not. I have major female problems!! So, the bleeding changed everything and they did not take me to surgery! Thank goodness.. They did an ultrasound, BABY IS STILL ALIVE.. What a relief.. Turns out the bleeding and pain is due to the 2nd sac (the blood sac) detaching itself from the uterine wall and disposing of itself. My doctor thinks I will have the same problems with my kidney's as I did the last time. I had hydronephrosis.
So, I am on strict bed rest. No lifting, very difficult with a 22 month old boy. And laying down with legs up at all times! My mother and sister have been a big help these past two weeks. Thank you both for all you do! I am lucky to have them in my life.. Also wanted to thank my husband for being so great and supportive during this time. And, my Aunt Linda, Granny, and Cousin Carson for the offer to help when they can! My family means the world to me.. I love you all :)
