Baby Certainty
I missed a posting day, second day of this process... how frustrating. I have good reason though: On Friday morning, I went to work through the agency and visited a client at his home. He was in a really bitchy mood today and was not interested in doing anything that I was paid to do that day (run his educational programs, teach him how to clean, etc). Apparently, he and his mother had a fight that morning about video games and him yelling/swearing at the television in the middle of the night. Anyway, I made it through the day keeping myself relatively relaxed about the situations, though I did manage to sneak out early, they even fed me before I left, which is impressive because we usually eat out. Good thing, too.
On my way home from work, my wife, who has had problems with prenatal cramping, called my cell phone crying because she had "spotted." Once I got home (remember, perfect timing because I left work early) she had already contacted the OB-GYN and was waiting for a call back. In the meantime, I consoled my wife and did further research via the net. We were soon off to the emergency room.
After a battery of tests, including our first ultrasound, the hospital basically implied (though they didn't outright tell us) they thought it was dehydration that was causing a majority of the problems. We now know that the pregnancy in on track and implantation was in the placenta, not ectopic.
Relief!
I will be pushing water on my wife, who has been placed on bedrest for the next 4 days (until our first scheduled prenatal appointment). We'll see, but it seems that everything is going good.
So was this a good enough reason to miss my second day of posting? I think so. Hopefully, I'll have something of interest to write about today... but not right now.
