shots at a wedding - a not-so-feel-good episode in theworms' baby-sticking story

so we survived the wedding and shots but my assss is killing me :(

wedding was nice, typical NY Italian wedding.

at around 10pm we put the shot plan in motion.  DH got me cup of ice from bar, i dropped it into ziploc in my purse and headed to the ladies room.  i iced my stomach and gave myself lovenox injection.  i then opened thermacare and put it on my butt.

i went back to table and we waited about 15 minutes to have thermacare heat up and then got my bro.  the bridal suite was locked and we needed a staff person to open it who wouldn't open it w/o bride's permission.  so my bro tells my cousin that i need to give myself a shot and DH needs to do it and can we use bridal suite, she says yes and tells staff person to open room for us (so much for not telling her anything).

so we go to suite and my bro stands guard and DH gives me my 2 butt shots.  he was so nervous about someone coming in and needing room, that he did them super quick :(  it hurt a lot and didn't get my usual post-shot butt massage.  i was also bleeding from both sites and with the gauze the thermacare wouldn't stick so didn't heat afterwards.

we left bridal suite and i sat down for a while but eventually i needed to party!  so of course i started dancing and that was not smart move. i got really awful cramps and then IBS episode :( 

by the time we got home i was still having episode and crying in the bathroom and praying that i didn't do anything to hurt our little worms.

so, this our wedding episode in the worms' baby-sticking saga.

i really hope everything is ok.

  • I was just about to text you because I hadn't heard anything from you.?

    That stinks that you had to tell your cousin. Does she have a big mouth/will she blab to everyone? Geeez, I hope not.

    It sounds like it wasn't the best situation, but the shots are done and you are fine. The embabies are fine! I'm glad it is over for you. It will be an interesting story to tell him/her/them one day.?

    Sorry that you had to deal with so much last night. I hope your belly and butt are feeling better this morning.

  • I'm sorry that it hurt so much and that you had the IBS episode.  I'm sure you didn't hurt your embies.  Think about that chick who went skydiving with a broken shute, crashed and mangled her face.  Her baby somehow stuck and survived.  A little poo and dancing can't hurt your kiddos.  And the cramps were probably the baby making himself nice and secure.

  • I"m sorry your cousin ended up finding out.  Hopefully she keeps her mouth shut or maybe she drank too much to end up remembering.  

    I hope you feel better and sorry you had an IBS flareup.
