CONGRATULATIONS!! IT'S A ......................

kidney stone..........

yep................

all that labor and it was nothing more than a 3mm kidney stone...........

Ever had one? I hadn't. until yesterday.

here's how it went down....................

I woke up about 5am feeling a little crampy.....My first thought was another damn bladder infection.........however, by 6am, as I am on all fours in my bathroom, I realized this was no damn bladder infection...........

I called the hubby, moaned and groaned, and tried to convince him that I did NOT need to go to the emergency room. I mean, come on, I am OVER the ER!! (that post comes later)

He, the smart man he is, called my dad for reinforcement. by 7:30 I am checking into the ER and explaining to everyone that would listen that I was in LABOR!! Yes, I know I am not pregnant but that is exactly what it felt like..........which for a brief second, reminded me of my first borns delivery and my hero plans of natural childbirth..........I ended up having natural childbirth, but I just changed what the definition was of NATURAL............Lots of drugs, Lots of drugs and the use of my vagina...........VOILA!! Aaalll Naturaaaal!!

Anywhoooooo................

Back to the ER story...........and my poor dad..............See, he had the pleasure of staying with me while the hubby took emme to daycare and figured out a plan for brayden...........

Did I mention the pain??? It truly was awful............so awful that I almost didn't even notice the HOT McDreamy Doctor, bow tie and all, that quickly agreed to my need for medication! HOT, I tell you HOT! And after an IV full of Demerol, I actually forgot my lack of shower, dirty clothes and unshaven legs.....I think I was hot! or not...........didn't care..........He was beautiful and I was in NOOOOOO pain......................

And thankfully after an ultrasound to check my ovaries, a CAT scan to check out my little baby kidney stone, I was pain free and congratulated on my delivery..........or partial delivery..........of this sweet bundle of joy.....apparently, my little stone is in my bladder waiting for round two.........Thank heavens for the prescription drugs with my little name written all over them!!
