What a day!!!!

First I want to thank Angela for asking about me! My allergies are a bit better right now thanks. Okay so to my day. Well I had to go grocery shopping this morning and then had intended on doing some school before lunch, then eat lunch, then finish up, then let the kids do their chores. Well do things ever work out as we plan??????? NO!!! I went to the bathroom after lunch and there was blood( sorry if that is TMI)on the toliet paper and it was bright red. so I started getting really scared. Back up to yesterday and I kept getting these shooting pains down there so my first thought went to that. Also two nights ago I had a terrible dream about this same thing. I dreamed I started bleeding but it was heavy heavy bleeding and then we lost the baby so I was extremely terrified. So anyway, I called my mom first to see if she might be able to get off work if the midwife wanted me to come in. Well she was having to go to the dentist today , to make a long story short my dh said he would be off in time. i had to go see the doctor that is in with the midwives. WE took the little one with us and left the older ones with our neighbor. WE got there and they did urine sample and there was blood in my urine so I was starting to get scared. He came in and checked me to be sure i did not have a infection in my cervix and to be sure it was closed and everything was fine there . So we had to go havea ultrasound, I was nervous. Then the baby popped up and the heartbeat was good and strong!!! Placenta looked good, everything looked really good. Also they did a internal one to be sure my cervix was not shortening or anything and everything looked good there, He told me it was probably a blood vessle that popped and told me to take it easy. LOL< yeah okay with 5 kids I will hehe! And we also find out that we are having another BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While I did want a girl I am super glad he is healthy!!! So that is it for my wild day. I have to go back next Monday to be sure everything is okay and my big ultrasound is still scheduled for APril 23rd . But it is definately a boy, he was not shy at all.

CONGRATS!!!

Did you have a urinary tract infection?

AHHHHH!!!! (that is me screaming) I somehow had a sneaky feeling that you were having a boy. The cousins will be super close in age and that is great fun. (I know, because I did it 3 times with Tonya) Maybe God gave you a boy so that you will adopt a girl when Jennifer does. (wink!)

Oh my! I am glad everything is ok! Yay, a boy. We have five boys and four girls!

As for the urinary tract infection I guess they would be able to tell that when they checked my urine and they said nothing about it so I dunno. Thanks for all the support!!! IT was very scary and I am still a little uneasy as I still feel crampy but I know God is in control! Yep catrina boys boys everywhere lol. When my sister and I get together now it will be 7 boys and 2 girls, oh my poor girls lol!

Congratulations! It's neat that you got a little surprise with your scare.

I bled a couple of times during the last pregnancy, but it had been within 48 hrs of marital relations. Hopefully you can remind everyone that you need to take it easy.
