Bad luck for me and labor - for puppies.

Well here I am. :p
Okay so... yesterday I went to the Orthopedic for my arm and they took my cast off. They told me that I had in fact fractured my left elbow. They also felt that I had probably fractured my wrist as well - although, they didn't have an x-ray of that. I now do not have a cast on and I am using both hands to type even though it slightly hurts my left wrist. Since the bone is only fractured then they want me to use the joints so that they don't lock up on me. I'm a little achy but feeling a lot better than when the cast was on.
Before the Orthopedics I was going downstairs (where I live) to get my wallet. My moms step son threw his blanket down to the bottom of the stairs. I can't remember if I slipped on it or tried to step over it and missed a step or what really happened but I ended up falling. I just remember lying on my back feeling as if I had broken my fingers. The pain was intense and I started crying. Justin and my mom came running to make sure I was alright. They asked me to open my hand to see the damage. I realized then that I had torn half of my fingernail from the finger bed on my right ring finger and it was bleeding into my palm. I then got up and went into my room to get my wallet when I realized my left arm/hand was in the cast and my right hand was in extreme pain and bleeding. I broke down right then. I fell to my knees and just bawled my eyes out. But this time wasn't because of the pain - it was because I felt completely pathetic and useless. I felt stupid and weak. I couldn't even pick up my wallet. I just cried and cried as Justin held me.
Then my mom took me to my Orthopedic appt where we waited for over an hr to be seen. The doctor hurried the visit up once she noticed that my right hand was bleeding though. Right after leaving the Orthopedics my mom brought me to the ER where I had an X-ray of my finger just to make sure it wasn't broken - which it wasn't. Then they sent me up to Labor and Delivery (l&d).
At l&d they put me on a fetal monitor for a non-stress test (nst) for four hours. Over the 4 hr period they noticed I was having pretty strong consistent contractions every 5 mins or so. They got concerned about it. They felt there may have been an underlying reason for the contractions. They checked my blood and made sure it didn't mix with baby's, they did an u/s to measure fluid and to check on the placenta, and they closely observed baby's heartbeat and activity. But the contractions didn't let up so they kept me for 24 hr observation. I ended up leaving fine this morning around 9.
I ended up switching my doctor and hospital because I liked the care at this hospital - Memorial, better. Better than Woman and Infants (W&I). I felt as if the doctors and nurses were much calmer, understanding, and caring - as well as the nurses. I feel that they actually listen to me, explain things to me in more details, and take precautions if they feel necessary.  I like that. So tomorrow I am seeing a doctor from that hospitals practice so that way I can deliver at that hospital. We will see how it goes.
I am going to assume that you have already guessed that I am still pregnant. 38w1d and still counting. I am feeling quite miserable as I hope you can imagine. Broken elbow, possibly broken/sprained wrist, and a torn fingernail/bruised finger. >.< I am so not used to being so huge. I have gained 35 lbs which is almost half of my original body weight of 93lbs. My back is killing me, I'm tired 90% of the time, I feel exhausted just by standing for five minutes, my muscles feel weak, and to be quite honest - contractions suck. I've been having pretty frequent contractions which apparently aren't doing anything at all and I hate them. I hate the end of pregnancy so much. I just really really want to meet my baby.

Oh yeah and there was a labor today, just not mine! Hermione had her puppies today! 4 of them - so far. Although, we're unsure if she's having any more or not. One of them we call Nemo already - he was born without a bone in his left leg/paw. Poor little guy. He seems to be doing well though. He's eating and thriving well. So, we'll see how he is - I'll update if anything changes. :) He's cute though!
