2nd baby visit went well. We met Dr. Epstein- they were so behind so we didn't get seen until almost 1015am. The doc said the pain in the left side of my stomach was my slowed bowel movements (i know, tmi) so I was feeling irritation. Whatever, never had that before so I was worried.
Still couldn't hear baby Mershon in the Doppler- well Josh and I couldn't so we had another ultrasound. Baby doubled in size and was moving around like crazy. Heart was beating nice and bright.
We found out on this visit that my uterus is tilted back so that's why it is a little harder to hear the heartbeat, but by week 20, it should be straighted out. The doctor joked and said I need to fix that because ultrasounds are expensive. I said I would.
We hurried home from the appointment to get ready for the wedding in Milwaukee. I curled my hair, painted my toenails and got to wear my cute little peacock colored dress. I was already tired and it was only noon! Josh looked very nice, too! I dont even think we took pictures of us all dolled up! been since the wedding we've dressed up. yikes.
around 1030pm we left the wedding. I headed to the restroom and came out panicked after I discovered something disturbing. I called the doctor right away and he put me on bedrest for Sunday- I hope that does the trick. The doctor just said it should taper off and if it doesnt, then he'd meet us at the hospital. Said it could be a placenta tear and it should heal on its own. Fingers crossed. I am really glad we saw the baby that morning, otherwise I am not sure what I'd do. Just praying, now.
