Figured I just start a new post. Thanks for thinking of my yesterday, girls! By the time I got home it was almost 7pm and I was not in the mood for the computer. I am a-ok.
I ended up in L&D. I was not have contractions, my blood pressure was fine, the baby was moving like crazy and therefore, she is fine, my temp was slightly elevated but probably because I had not been drinking much water at a time due to how my body was feeling. I drank more hot tea yesterday than water. Since the pressure continued they also ran an EKG - which came back clear. They also checked my urine - again clear.
All the possibly scary things were ruled out. My end result? Had to be gas. The worst case of gas I have ever, EVER had (and this includes after my c-section) but still gas none-the-less. I am still feeling a milder version of yesterday this morning so in about an hour I am running to Target and picking up some GasX. Currently, I am drinking hot tea and chilling at my desk at work.
All I can hope is that this is not going to be a new and regular symptom that will pop up over the next 4 months. Uncomfortable is not even the word. Sleeping last night on either side was difficult because of the bubble under my left shoulder and sleeping propped on my back is not ideal either.
Thanks for listening and for all the advice yesterday!
ox,
Mel
