labor concerns.
2002-12-11 | 12:36 p.m.

*whines* i feel like crap run over by a big truck.

josh had a really bad stomach flu. he never, ever gets sick. this was the first time i've seen him sick in years. the whole year we have been dating, everytime he got 'sick,' it lasted a day, and all it was was a stuffy nose, and he could continue as normal. but this time, he was really sick. and i felt horrible. he took care of me for so many months while i was puking. so, i took care of him the best i could. but, being a guy, he wants to be babied, but not babied. if that makes any sense. and i'm not saying this in a negative 'guys suck' sense, i just find it funny. when i'm sick, i want someone there to get stuff for me and whatnot. but guys, they like to pretend they are fine, but they still want you to get everything for them. but blah.

so, last night, josh took his final for college, and then he came over and we went and got wendy's (i had been craving it for awhile), then we went to a store, then we went to petland (i'm a looking-at-pets junky), and then we went to his work. this whole time, my uterus felt like everytime the baby kicked she was shredding it apart, everything from my belly button down hurt. so i sat down for awhile, and it felt better. so, then, i walked aroudn some more, and it started hurting again. so, i got josh and i a drink, and we left. i got a root beer, seeing as last time i got a drink from his work it was hawiian punch and i puked. so, i got root beer. then we went to his house because i'm finally allowed over there again since they kicked michael out. so, i'm sitting there talking to his parents, in huge amounts of pain, and josh puts in lilo and stitch, which is a very cute and funny movie, and then i go to lay down on his bed. after awhile, i end up puking like crazy. and i felt like shit. so i stayed at his house because i didn't feel up to driving. which created another problem, i didn't have the anti-puking pills with me. so, i was taking a risk. but i figured since i threw up everything in my stomach, i would be ok. so, i went to sleep around 2, then i woke up at 4 and stumbled into the bathroom because i was having the pains in my uterus and below again, but not as bad, i thought i had to pee. so, i go back and lay down and wake up at 7 when josh's dad sticks his head in josh's door and says 'josh... josh..' cuz josh had to go to work at 8. so, i laid there, and josh came in and i said i would just go home then because i didn't feel sick, so i'd be ok to drive. then about 5 minutes later, i ended up throwing up again. josh waited for me. it was 7:30ish by that time. and josh's driveway was a pure sheet of ice. so he helped me to the car, and his dad pulled my car down to a safe place, and i left. so, i'm almost home, and i had to pull over and throw up again. then i go home, and get a glass of water, and my pill and take it, and call my mom to let her known i'm home. and she was in the middle of talking to me, and i had to go throw up again. so, after that, i laid down in my bed and said to myself 'i have to get up at 10 to go to the pregnancy clinic.' i've missed about a month or so of appointments becuase of miscommunication, the shower, and other things popping up. so i was going today at 11. so, i end up falling asleep and waking up at 12. oh lovely. so now i'm too embarassed to call in and say 'hey gail, it's your lackey again.' and last night, i was supposed to go to school, but the furnace guy was coming, my mom got a job for 3 days, she wasn't going to be home, no one else was going to be home so, i had to wait for him. and he didn't show up until 3:15, i'm suppsed to be at school at 3. and he didn't leave until 4:30. and josh had to take my car and go take his final at 5. so, all was lovely. it's just more madness. so, today at 3 i'm supposed to go to school, and i feel like crap.

and these pains in my uterus are bothering me. i talked to my doctor about it and she said that it was just because my uterus muscles and tendons are stretching to fit the baby. and it seems when i get sick or upset about something, they hurt worse. so i'm dismissing them. because they went away today. and it's not like contractions, becuase it was a constant ache, not able to be timed or anything. and i've had no blood or anything, so i'm guessing it's just the muscles and tendons again.

and all of this has got me worried.

how will i know when the baby has dropped? how will i know when i go into real labor? i heard when your water breaks, it's normally just a trickle, how will i notice the trickle if there is all this extra discharge and everything?

and blah. so now i'm all worried about that. and i feel like crap. and i don't know what to do with myself. and blah. that's all i can say.

i'm gonna go back to laying down, if i can. or something.
