UPDATE ON MOMMY AND BABY!

WELL, AFTER OUR LAST DOCTOR'S VISIT ON TUESDAY MOMMY HAS WENT DOWN HILL. I STARTED FEELING BAD THAT MORNING LIKE I WAS GETTING A BLADDER INFECTIONS AND MENTIONED IT TO THEM AND THAT MAYBE HE HAD DROPPED AND WAS CAUSING THE DISCOMFORT. WELL, HE HAD NOT DROPPED AND SO I WENT HOME. WHEN I WOKE UP WEDNESDAY MORNING I HAD BLOOD IN MY URINE, SO I CALLED THE NURSE. THEY CALLED ME IN SOME ANTIBIOTICS, BUT ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER I GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH HER I WAS HAVING CONSTANT SEVERE BACK PAIN ON MY RIGHT SIDE IN THE KIDNEY AREA. I AM HARD HEADED AND DO NOT LIKE COMPLAINING, SO I SUFFERED THROUGH THE REST OF THE DAY AND GOT NO SLEEP THAT NIGHT. IT WAS STILL JUST AS BAD ON THURSDAY, SO I CALLED AND WENT IN TO SEE THE DOCTOR. THEY CHECKED MY URINE AND I HAD SOME WHITE BLOOD CELLS AND PROTEIN IN IT, SO SHE KNEW I HAD ALITTLE BLADDER INFECTION. THE BACK PAIN HAS BEEN THE WORSE AND THE WAY I DESCRIBED IT TO HER SHE ASSUMED IT WAS KIDNEY STONES AND ORDERED AND ULTRASOUND. THEY DID NOT SEE ANY STONES, BUT SAID THAT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO MISS THEM ON AN ULTRASOUND. THE RIGHT KIDNEY WAS ENLARGED AND BACKED UP WHICH COULD BE DUE TO PREGNANCY ALSO, SO SHE WANTED TO START ANTIBIOTICS FOR THE BLADDER INFECTIONS AND PAIN MEDS FOR THE POSSIBLE STONE. THEY SENT MY URINE CULTURES OFF TO THE LAB TO CHECK FOR KIDNEY INFECTION. SHE SAID IF I STARTED HAVING CHILLS OR SPIKED FEVERS THEN TO CALL BACK RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE A SURE SIGN OF A BIGGER INFECTION. SO I LEFT AND WENT BY THE PHARMACY AND HEADED HOME. THIS WHOLE TIME I HAD THE CHILLS AND FELT THE WORSE I HAVE IN MY LIFE. WHEN I FINALLY GO HOME TO CHECK MY TEMP. IS WAS 102.9, WHICH SCARED ME TO DEATH. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE NURSE AND SHE PAGED THE DOCTOR AND THEY SAID TO HEAD TO LABOR AND DELIVERY. SO THAT IS WHERE WE ARE NOW. I HAVE BEEN ON IV ANTIBIOTICS, PAIN PILLS, AND 10000 MG TYLENOL TRYING TO KEEP THE FEVER DOWN. IT SPIKED ALL NIGHT LAST NIGHT AND THE BACK PAIN IS STILL KILLING ME, BUT THE MEDS SEEM TO HELP CONTROL IT. I HAVE BEEN SO WORRIED ABOUT THE BABY, BUT THEY ASSURE US HE IS OKAY. THE ONLY THING IS THAT HIS HEART RATE GOES WAY UP WHEN MY FEVER IS WAY UP,SO WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO STAY ON TOP OF THAT. THE URINE CULTURES WILL HOPEFULLY BE BACK SOMETIME THIS AFTERNOON.

MI MI HAS BEEN TAKING CARE OF THE BOYS FOR ME THIS WEEK AND I THANK GOD FOR THAT BECAUSE I WAS JUST IN TERRIBLE PAIN AND IT HURT TO EVEN BREATHE. I KNOW THAT THEY HAD FUN,BUT I AM SURE SHE IS WORN OUT! THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST MI MI! GI GI AND PAW PAW GOT THEM LAST NIGHT AND BROUGHT THEM TO SEE US. IT BROKE MY HEART FOR THEM TO SEE ME LIKE THIS BECAUSE AIDEN WAS SO SCARED AND JUST DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE WOULD NOT EVEN SIT IN THE BED WITH ME. HE DID LET PAW PAW HOLD HIM WHILE HE GAVE ME A KISS. AUSTIN ON THE OTHER HAND WAS JUST ALL OVER THE PLACE CHECKING EVERYTHING OUT AND CLIMBING IN MY BED, BUT WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO HE DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE. HE JUST CRIED AND CRIED BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO SLEEP IN MOMMYS BED! I MISS THEM SO MUCH BECAUSE I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO SEE THEM HARDLY ANY THIS WEEK, BUT I KNOW THEY ARE HAVING FUN. GI GI AND PAW PAW ARE TAKING THEM IN THE MOTORHOME TO LAKE GUNTERSVILLE TO CAMP TODAY, SO I KNOW THEY WILL LOVE THAT! THANK YOU GI GI AND PAW PAW FOR TAKING CARE OF OUR BABY BOY! PLEASE PRAY FOR THEM AND THEIR SAFTEY AS THEY TRAVEL!

I WILL TRY TO UPDATE YOU ALL MORE WHEN WE KNOW MORE,BUT PLEASE JUST PRAY THAT THIS INFECTION GOES AWAYS AND WE GET TO GO HOME TO OUR SWEET BOYS SOON! PLEASE PRAY THAT THE BABY CONTINUES TO DO GOOD AND NONE OF THIS AFFECTS HIM. THANK YOU ALL I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.

I feel sooooo sorry for you!!!! I have been there!!! With Warren I had kidney stones and pylonephritis too! We ended up in the hospital for a week. I pray that you get better very soon and don't spend that much time there. I know the pain is excruciating. It will pass. My fever got up to 103.8 and Warren turned out just fine. Your little one will be ok. At least you are in the best place for them to take care of you!
Take care!!! Praying for you!

I will say one of the hardest times of my life was when I was in the hospital those 3 nights because Brady cried cause he wanted to sleep with his mommy and daddy. When I got back from my c-section he wouldn't have anything to do with me either. He hated me in that bed with all that stuff hooked up to me. It took till I could get out of the bed and go sit with him on the couch and then he was still distant and it broke my heart. It gets better though when you can get home and get back to normal. I will be praying for you and baby.

I am so sorry to hear you are feeling bad. I was very suprised to run into RJ this morning & very glad having someone to talk to help me pass the time. I'm sorry we didn't get by there to visit before we left but Brad was very loopy & kept asking me the same questions over & over. It was kinda funny to see him like that. Hopefully the next time we run into each other at that hospital it will be when you are having that little boy. Get well soon we are praying for you!

I'm so sorry you're not feeling well! Bladder infections are tough enough, but to have one while so far along in pregnancy is awful. I'm sure everything will be okay and you're in good hands. We'll keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. Get rest and we cannot wait to meet your new baby boy soon!

I am so sorry. I had no idea you were in that much pain when I talked to you last week. And I'm so bad about checking blogs recently that I just now saw this. Please call me if there is anything I can do or if you need something at the hospital or just someone to come hang out with you. I'll be praying for you...get better soon!
