So, my bed popped. [PIP]

itsaleedanielle · July 2013

So, as many of you have already guessed, I sleep on an air mattress.
Late last night around 2 am I heard a REALLY loud pop.
I woke up freaking out as I sank to the floor and moments later realized my neck hurt to even move.
Turns out the bed popped under my neck, no clue how, but it did.
And seriously, it hurts more than it should. ):

Today is not my day, guys..

OMG. That looks incredibly painful. So sorry. Hope it gets better soon.

MommyEllenSue · July 2013

Wow your neck looks painful! Hope it gets better fast. And why are you sleeping on a air mattress?

Ktrue85 · July 2013

Ouch!! That is terrible looking, and I'm sure it doesn't feel much better.

BootsOrHearts · July 2013

Ouch! I have enough trouble sleeping on a regular mattress, I don't know how you manage with an air mattress!

After a series of unfortunate events that ended with my roommates changing the locks on me and having to call the police to get my things, I winded up staying at my fathers until my new apartment goes through the paperwork. When I left the last place I only had 10 minutes to get in, grab everything I could, and get out before the police left and a fight broke out. In the midst of the drama I had to leave my furniture and ended up losing half of everything I own.

Seriously, it was just one big drama fest.

Basically in summary, I'm staying at my fathers on an air mattress in his living room. It sucks, but it's a place that's safe for baby and I until I hear back on Tuesday about my apartment application. /:

Whoa. That's quite a big bruise or abrasion! Ok, so did the mattress popping there cause the injury on your neck or did sinking to the floor cause that? It's kind of hard to imagine either doing that.

Mrbatesisinnocent · July 2013

Oww that looks really painful! Feel better.

I honestly don't know which one did it. When the mattress popped, it like seriously exploded. That's the easiest way I can put it. It popped right about neck level. When I went to the rest room to check my neck I didn't see anything except for the spot turning red and went back to sleep on the floor. When I woke up this morning I had this nasty mark on my neck. In all honesty, I'm very confused as to how either of them caused this either, but of course it wasn't there before falling asleep so it's the only explanation I can give for it. It seriously hurts too.

Ouch!!! Ice it and Tylenol. I'm sure it hurts:(

Sorry about all the furniture drama. Hope you get the new place!
Also, ouch, I don't even know how to treat that. Neosporin?

I may try that if I get brave enough to touch it. I did once to see if it hurt and I regretted it so much, haha. Hopefully it'll go away soon. Today though I have to track down some rubber bands because even my hair falling on it is horribly uncomfortable. I'm annoyed with it because I don't think it should hurt as bad as it does. ):

shortms6 · July 2013

Maybe make an appt to see your general doc if it doesn't improve? There might be some medicated ointment that's safe during pregnancy. It looks really bad.

HerbanMom · July 2013

Eeeek! That looks painful... maybe it was a sign from the mattress Gods to please get yourself a non-inflatable mattress for your pregnant self! Hope that feels better soon!

MamaHanna · July 2013

Ouch! Good luck with your new place and a better bed!

tyedyeme12 · July 2013

Oh my goodness! That looks so painful! I'm so sorry that you had to deal with all that crap with your roommate and such.

Oops, definitely meant tylenol..either way though, feel better!

AGriffin620 · July 2013

Oh my gosh, ouch!!! That looks like some major "rug burn" if that's where the mattress actually popped. Make sure you visit the doctor. IMO that's a big enough scrape to have looked at. Feel better soon!

lp0 · July 2013

I would definitely call the manufacturer. That really shouldn't have happened.

katieh704 · July 2013

Ouch:( hope your neck feels better!

amberpro · July 2013

Owww! That looks so painful! Hope it improves soon.

Hope things improve, soon. Sounds like a lot going on. FX for your apartment application.

FWIW, I slept on an air mattress for the last 2 months of my pregnancy with DS. It was more comfortable than our crappy mattress.

amgreiman · July 2013

Feel better soon. I bruise easier while pregnant and hurt longer so try to take care!

itsaleedanielle · July 2013

Thanks girls! I'm going to the doctor first thing in the morning. Maybe they can track down exactly where and how in the night it got there. I've been putting in neosporn (sp?) but it hasn't lightened up any yet. I think I'm definitely going to write a letter. The mattress is only 2 months old, and I'm not rough on it at all, so it shouldn't have popped regardless. Hopefully it gets better tonight and I can have a less painful tomorrow

itsaleedanielle · July 2013

Also, in bad news, I heard back from my apartment early. I didn't get the place because Someone else's application went through before mine. Time to try again ):

All I can say is I'm thankful I have a place to stay for now, even if it does come included with a crappy air mattress. Lol.
