A little scare


This week, we had a little bit of a scare.  OK, so I was a little scared and Chris stayed cool, calm and collected.  Monday night, I started getting some pretty bad cramps in my back and front.  I took some Tylenol and laid down, and I started feeling a little better.  Tuesday, I got up feeling better, but not 100%.  As the day went on, I started getting more cramps and some pressure, so I called the doctor. They wanted me to come in, so they could check me out.  I was a wreck because I was so worried that there was something wrong.  When I got there, the doctor did an internal and found that everything looked fine, but she wanted me to be on bed rest for the rest of the day and to limit my activities on Wednesday.  Chris was supposed to have a meeting at the church on Tuesday night, but he came home to take care of me and Josiah.  I've said it many times before, "How did I get blessed with such a wonderful husband?"  I would try to get up and get something, and he would banish me back to the couch and bring it to me.  Since Wednesday, I haven't had any more problems and Sophie is kicking and having a great time.  We don't really know what caused all this, but feel it might have been from all the traveling and packing of boxes.  I praise the LORD for keeping Sophie safe and letting everything be OK with her.  I'm so thankful that the doctor didn't just blow it off and was very reassuring about things looking great and encouraging to call back if I continued to have concerns.  We are counting down the weeks until Sophie's due date--16 more weeks, but 13 more weeks until we are safely out of the woods.  Continue to pray that everything goes smoothly with this pregnancy and we don't have any more scares.
