Pregnancy scare


I was still spotting when I awoke this morning. I was pretty scared that the bleeding didn't stop so I knew I definitely had to go to the hospital. Yesterday, I actually called my hospital and they told me to come in to get myself checked out, but seeing that we had just finished our basement renos we had so much to do that I didn't end up going to the hospital. Daddy couldn't go with me because of you because who knows how long the checkup was going to take. On my way to the hospital I called Auntie Jess to tell her what was going on and she was sweet enough to meet me at the hospital to make sure I was ok. The closer I got to the hospital I started panicking. I had these dark thoughts in my head that something was terribly wrong because I didn't go get myself checked out the day before.

When I finally got to triage the nurse scolded me for not coming in and told me any bleeding was an emergency situation. Oh boy. Luckily the doctor did an ultrasound and baby Kendall was moving and had a healthy heartbeat. Phew! Next time this happens I'm definitely not going to take a chance. I think the bleeding was caused by exertion from all the cleaning I did from the basement renos. Now it's up to daddy to take the reigns and make sure mommy is well rested and taken care of before the due date.
