Last Friday night I was doing some exercises to get Adelyn out of the posterior position when all of a sudden I felt they worst back pain....EVER!
Did I just pull a muscle?
The pain lasted for about 3 hours when I begged Mike to take me to the hospital. Off we went, flashers on and speeding down the highway and running through red lights. It felt like we were in a movie.
Mike pulled up to the ER parking lot and rushed me to labor and delivery and then the strangest thing happend- my pain stopped.
Oh no! Am I one of those ladies that thinks she is in labor and then goes to the hospital and nothing is going on??? Surely not, the pain was so intense!!
Unfortunately, there was no baby girl to hold at the end of all that pain. It ended up being a kidney stone.
People say kidney stones are like giving birth, looks like I get to to give birth twice in one month- lucky me!!
On a side note I learned that my platelet count is really low, a common side effect of pregnancy, but mine is so low that I may not be able to get an epidural. I am asking for prayers that my platelet count will go up...I didn't get pregnant thinking I was going to be experiencing "natural" childbirth. Thanks!
