Guest guest Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Mandy, I am still feeling the ab pain, and tightness. I only record if it is over 20 sds or more. I was told my the nurse that yes, all these things can cause the uterus irritation. She said since the bladder is under or to the side of the uterus (they are touching each other). Especially after the ab cerclage b/c they moved your bladder around. If you have an infection on the bladder it can cause the uterus to be irritated. I was surprised b/c I had one at 20 weeks and I did not have these symptoms. She said as the baby gets bigger the more pressure you have on the bladder and uterus. I have heard from women here that if you leave a UTI you can actually go into labor. I guess the infection can harm the outer uterus linning??? I hope that is what is was b/c I still have the signs and they are painful. And of course they worry me. When they plugged me in my hd was just staring at the paper. We have learned how to read the print outs. We had them done so many times so we watch them. Last Monday, I was complaining of having contractions remember and they plugged me in and said that their was nothing. A flat line which is great to see. When we saw the line this time it would be flat then a hill then flat then a hill. I could have had the UTI two weeks ago. From what the nurse said my UTI had some high readings and she questioned me how I took the sample. I told her I peed then stopped half way then collected. She asked me again. they sent it to the lab for testing. Lets pray to God that the meds stop these feelings. I cannot tell you how painful they are and scary. I would tell my hd I am having one is it showign and he would say yes. he looked scared. They kept coming. The worse thing for me was that other women were coming in and they were huge probably in their mid 30’s. I was jealous. Their were 5 prego’s that left while I was there. One women came in b/c she thought her water broke. She was full term. I do not know what happened to her. Hopefully, this week will be boring. The hd is still deciding if Christmas should be at our house or not. My mother said that she would have it at her house if we wanted to change it. The hd thinks that it has been to much stress on me. To tell you the truth having his parents living in the same house for 4 weeks has been stressful. I cannot wait to have my house back. I usually would go to the cough during the afternoon. However with them their they would want to talk to me. I just want some time with my hd and alone time. They leave on Saturday. Could he be right about Christmas? I do not want to have Christmas w/ just his family. Having my family around I do not have to talk to them much. Not that I hate talking to them but it is always about the past, , hd child hood etc. they have cried several times about and when they do they speak Norweign to my hd. I have to leave the room b/c I just want to deal with it. they cause my hd to cry and I do not seeing that. I am pg again and I need to concentrate on that. it gets me all upset when they talk about my son. Not to mention it puts a lot of pressure and stress on my hd. We haven’t been alone in 4 weeks. that is to long for anyone. They are so emotional and way over sensitive that it puts me in a , not again mood. Anyway, thank you for listening. I need to chat. I hope that you are doing good and the family is well. God bless, taryn Re: L $ D- update taryn Taryn - I am glad to hear you are okay.
