Holy hell its been a rough few days ๐
So we were planning a baby sprinkle for saturday afternoon, just a bbq, some games and a diaper raffle. Friday afternoon D stayed home with the kids while i ran a few errands for the party. I got home a little before 9. By 10 pm I was pretty crampy and uncomfortable but figured i just pushed myself a little much. By midnight i got in the bath to try to soothe some pain, by 1am I was vomiting back to back until 6am. I hadnt had anything in my stomach so i was just puking up water and stomach bile ๐คข
I went into L&D and then gave me fluids and said "you must have food poisioning and youre really dehydrated". Well yeah, i havent kept anything down in 10+ hours by that point. They told me to come back if i still cant drink in 24 hours.
I went home and did nothing but sleep, take hot baths and take Tylenol for the next 24 hours. When itd get to 1 1/2 to 2 hours before i could take more tylenol Id literally be shaking and crying. I told D Id take the epidural now if i could ๐. Went back to L&D and they scolded me for "still being dehydrated" even though thats why i was there? They sent me home with a perscription of zofran.
Called my OB on monday and a nurse wrote me off on the phone and said "its probabaly just food poisioning" again. ๐ but we scheduled an appointment with a midwife for Tuesday.
Tuesday I go in, i can barely walk, im shaky, pale, at this point i literally felt like i was dying.
The midwife talks to me and says theres no way its still food poisioning especially because i stopped puking two days prior. I mentioned my stomach has felt like ive had a 4 day long contraction and when she tries to feel my stomach I literally burst into tears, it hurts so badly. She thinks I injured my stomach muscles from throwing up so much, along with off setting my pelvis and she could bet the pain i was feeling was my hips pulling apart simiarly to how they do in active labor ๐. She perscibed some muscle relaxers, ive only taken two doses and am in half the pain I was in before. I also couldn't eat anything in those 4 days because of the pain and dropped 10 lbs.
Hey people, maybe try listening when someone tries to tell you something is wrong with their body??
