Last night was a long night. I was getting braxton hicks contractions every 40mins - 1hr1/2. I was a bit worried about that.. I called the doctor and she said to just rest and take in fluids and that if I were in labor there is "nothing" they could do. That really bothered me because I know there are things they can do! Well later on that night going into morning I went to go into the shower like I do every night before bed. I peed, wiped well... stood, everything was fine, I walked over the the shower and opened the curtain when WHOOSH, this fluid came out all down my legs and even reached my feet! I panicked. I went to triage where I sat for 4 hours without being seen by anyone. Then a doctor came in and did some type of pap smear looking for pooling of fluid (which probably dried up within those 4 hours of waiting) and said she couldn't find anything. They said it seemed my water was still intact and they sent me home at 7am this morning. I came home, ate some food, then passed out cuddled up with my little Lailah.
I woke up with Justin around 1:30, he made Lai and I pancakes, then we headed to my moms. I watched the kids for her for a little while then came home to rest before physical therapy.
Physical therapy went okay - my hips seem to be getting a little better already. We mostly just worked on strengthening the surrounding muscles today. I think that last guy literally popping my hips into place last Tuesday did the trick!
On the last note of the day but certaining one of the most important - my little Lailah got her first double ear infection ! :( I had to take her to the walk-in clinic tonight. My poor little baby! I feel so bad, I know how bad ear pain sucks. I have to administer her Acetaminophen every 6 hours for fever and pain relief and the antibiotics 3x a day to kill the infection in her ears. :/ She is not liking this at all! The only good thing for me is lots and lots of cuddles with mommy. :) She's actually lying down and putting herself to bed early, that's when you know she really doesn't feel good! <3
