Things I learned yesterday

It's not normal to swell up like a balloon overnight, even if you are pregnant.

If your BP is sky high it makes this nurses eyes bug out of their head and quickly send you to the hospital.

Getting a cathater is the suck

I'm on bed rest now and most likely till I deliver, good times.

Re: Things I learned yesterday

  • Oh that is the suck! I hope you and the babies are doing ok.
  • Oh no!  What are you going to do about Tony's surgery?  Will you have to have somebody come stay at your house with you?

  • We aren't sure what to do about his surgery yet and are working on that today.  I love him but omg, he actually had the nerve to say to me last night "so do you think you can still drive me to my surgery.". 

    He really didn't seem to understand what was happening yesterday or how serious a situation that could have been.  I'm so lucky i got to come home.

  • That sucks so much. 

    I would try to give tony a break.  I suspect he was overwhelmed and really didn't know the seriousness of the situation.  

  • Wow. I'm sorry. Take care of yourself and those babies.

    Oh he has no idea I'm annoyed.  He processes info differently than I do, so I'm used to it.

  • Yikes! Im glad you get to be at home. 
    image Ready to rumble.
  • I am sure Tony was nervous and didn't realize the severity of the situation.

    I am glad you get to go home. However, please refrain from attending any NKOTB concerts in the forseeable future.

  • scary!  I'm glad you're ok and that you get to be home instead of the hospital.  I hope the babies stay put as long as possible.

  • Does he get the severity now or is he still clueless?

  • I think he gets it.  He's bringing me my food and such to me in bed, but he's been doing that for awhile.  But it's not like he's been on the bump researching Pre E and what can happen.

  • Wow, I am glad you are OK.  Sorry about the bedrest, but keep those babies safe!  Is there someone nearby that can help you and Tony?
  • Thank god for my dad.  He's going to take Tony tomorrow to his knee surgery.  My little sister has offered to come help me.

  • Yeah, most guys have no clue. When I told P that you have to wait six weeks after birth to have sex again, his repsonse was, "Get out of here! You're sh!ttin' me!"

    Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
  • Could be. I haven't had a period in I don't know how long. But I also have no crazy symptoms and I take the pill, so I'm not too shook up. Chances are this is my f'ed up uterus being weird again. But I'll be sure to let ya'll know when my episode of, "I didn't know I was pregnant" airs.

  • Ugh, Dawg. That sucks. At least now you have doctors orders to chill out and take some time to relax.
    image
  • You poor thing, I'm so sorry. Small comfort, but at least they let you go home.
  • Sorry to hear that but I'm glad you and the babies are well enough to be resting at home and that you have people to help you out.
    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz
  • Hope you're able to get some much needed rest.

  • Ugh, that's awful darling. Glad to hear you have family willing to jump in.

    I hope the time goes quickly for you. Try to make the best of it - read and watch whatever you want whenever you want, I'm sure when you have twins running around, the two of you will be like "Remember when I was on bed rest and you'd just had knee surgery? Sigh, those were the days."
