Last night/this morning

Before I say anything know that baby is completely fine right now :)

Last night we had a trip to the ER. I was bleeding (a lot) when we went to go to bed. I went to the bathroom and sat and heard liquid, and thought "hmm... I'm not peeing yet..." wiped and flipped the f out when it was blood.

We were there for about 4 hours. 2 iv bags, an ultrasound, urine tests, and baby heart monitored the whole time. My doctor contacted. The works.

Nothing wrong. Baby was happy and healthy. Placenta fine. Fluid around baby fine. They didn't know where the bleed was from and basically described it something similar to a broken blood vessel.

They sent me home with orders to see my doc today and pelvic rest. (like I wanted anything else but rest after that and getting home at 2:30am!)

Saw my doc and she sent me for another sonogram to check to see where the bleeding is from because she could see from the exam this morning that it's coming from the cervix. She checked his heartbeat which was good.

She said everything looks ok and since I'm not in pain it's not too worrisome. Just making sure. She said sometimes, it just happens.



Had the sonogram and once again baby looked ok. He weighs 2 pounds 11 ounces right now and doesn't like being monitored. Last night and this morning he kept kicking the monitors. :)

Turns out I have a hemitoma (sp?) on my cervix and I guess it just got irritated. I'm on bed rest until I see the doctor again next week, but hopefully it should heal and seems like the bleeding is already stopping. So that's good.

Big scare, but thankfully it seems common and under control.

Stay in there a few more weeks Santito! You need to gain a few more pounds!
