I spoke too soon...

Shortly after I described the fact that I am not truly dieing... I passed a kidney stone. I seriously thought I was going to die! Women say they would rather have natural childbirth than pass a stone, I have not done that but after the 3 1/2 hours of pain I had last Thursday night I am certain I would rather do a lot of things than pass another stone. I laid on the bed, the floor, the chair, the bathroom floor, pretty much anywhere trying to find a position that would take the pain away but nothing worked. IT WAS AWFUL! I am on antibiotics now that have taken the UTI/Kidney Infection away and now I'm just dealing with the nausea and yeast infections associated with antibiotic use but I am finally starting to feel like myself again. I was able to have a normal functioning day yesterday!! I have decided that my pain tolerance can't be as low as we have assumed my whole life because most people end up in the ER with a kidney stone and I dealt with it at home! The thought of going to the ER for morphine crossed my mind numerous times during the battle though!! I am really just hoping that the 2nd trimester will end soon and the third trimester will bring some comfort!! With Siena I felt the best at the end of the pregnancy, so let's cross our fingers!! Please baby girl let me have some relief!!!
