On the mend . . .

A quick update for you. (No, no baby.)

Last night was a pretty miserable night. I was up around 2am with more pain in my side. No matter what position I tried it was horrendous and I was losing my mind completely. After some time I did finally find a position close to sunrise and got a little sleep but was getting worried something else was going on - where could this pain be coming from!? I called the dr and they took me in. Leo and I were worried they could say and do little to help. But they made the trip worth it when I was handed a blessed little piece of paper that held a perscription for drugs. Hooray!!!

Long story short, I am sitting on the couch enjoying the effects of a little less pain and a lot of sleepiness. The pain is from the lingering muscle stuff - no gall bladder, appendix or other organ issues that my frantic mind made up stories about all night. And so it is just a matter of time before it goes away. I can live with that. I also asked if this will affect labor should it start sooner than later. Dr said it should be ok - after dealing with this all week labor may not be so bad. And as long as I get those drugs I will not have a problem. So perhaps a little practice pain will have been worth it?!

Thanks again for all your thoughts and concerns. It's nice to know you are all out there reading and waiting!
