My Trip to L&D... Again

I started feeling horribly painful cramps on Thursday evening and saw brown discharge later that night. Sometimes that is not a bad thing, but I was advised to call Dr. MacKay's office just in case.

On Friday morning, I was at L&D again. I was given an IV bag to stay hydrated and a shot to stave of contractions. It turns out that I have a UTI (TMI, I know), and these can cause preterm labor. So now, I am on an antibiotic on top of everything else.

So the moral of this story is: don't hold your #1s. If nature calls, just go.

I have taking it easy this weekend as a result. Have to go to the Doctor's Office to recheck my UTI culture as well as get my blood platelet count. Man, I'm tired.

you know, my mother always said if you have to go, go. I think that is a good philosophy.
