My Painful Weekend

This weekend has been kinda crazy. Friday I got horrible belly pains and after having them for 2 hours asked my hubby to take me to the hospital. Because I'm almost 20 weeks pregnant they sent me up to labor and delivery (one plus: I have graduated from the 9 hour ER waiting room) they stuck me in a room in labor and delivery and hooked a sensor up to me to tell if what I was feeling was contractions because my description sounded like it. then they ran some tests, and after an hour of waiting in a freezing room (hubby was freezing I just wanted socks) :) the midwife came in and said it was common pregnancy discomfort and that my uterus was just adjusting and figuring out what it needed to do. I always feel silly going to the hospital and being sent home with order to take 2 Tylenol lol. But better safe than sorry. False labor is a serious thing and I really want my little one to have all the health in the world. So if I must I sacrifice my pride and look like the paranoid hypochondriac that progesterone has made me into lol. Saturday was good we stayed in the whole day but I like those days especially after Friday lol. Now its Sunday and the pains came back but now that I know what they are its a lot easier to deal with them. Wish the new mama luck and peace of mind. ttyl.
