UGH... Well yesterday and today I have been REALLY stressed. I've been arguing with my job, and it's been awful. Today, I was on the phone with them bright and early, and started yelling. A few minutes later I started getting sharp pains in my lower abdomen. It kept coming and going all morning, and I was trying to take care of stuff, and ignore it. I was feeling lots of pressure on my bladder but didnt need to use the bathroom, and the pains kept getting worse. Me and my mom went to lunch with my aunt and cousin and I kept trying to ignore it. When we were driving away I just started bawling. It hurt so bad. So I told my mom and she told me to call my doctor. I called and they had me come into labor and delivery. They had me hooked up to the machines, monitoring contractions which actually stopped after lying down for a bit, and forgetting about work and stuff. And getting some kind of medicine. And monitoring our little girls heartbeat. Which stayed strong. They checked and I was dehydrated, and they said that this was caused from the stress of my job (most likely). They also checked my cervix (OUCH!) and it was not dilating.

They let me go home after a while, but said that I was on bed rest and to keep myself hydrated. It was the scariest thing thats ever happened to me. But shes ok, and I just have to stay in bed. Actually I'm on the couch watching tv...

Anyway, just wanted to vent/talk about it. It was terrifying.

I've been so stressed lately and I keep getting pains. I've been trying to ignore them lol

Awwww babe, I am so sorry you experienced this......but the good news is all is OK!!!

Your body is obviously trying to tell you something hun, and if work is getting to you, I would take this opportunity to go and see your GP and get signed off work so you can relax and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!

Take it easy babe and remember, nothing it worth getting yourself so worked up about, the main thing is your health and your baby's health.

I hope you are gettin over your ordeal OK babe! Have a nice relaxing weekend, AND drink! x

That is very scary. Im glad you and your baby are ok. Keep those feet up. Hopefully things get sorted with your Work.
