09-7-2008 - Big day big lessons

My mood while writing this blog: relaxed from pain meds

Recap of Tues 7/8/08
Catheters are horrible. Last night had a battle with a kink in the line/ some other unknown problem why it wouldn't drain. This gave me unbearable pressure in my abdomen. Night nurses examined cervix and determined that the cerclage is still there.

I feel like my insides are raw. All different pains (back, bladder,contractions, irritable uterus) are indistinguishable. Serious pain and it is impossible to sort out and describe to the nurses.

Passing less blood last night.

Today's nurse was not making things easier. Had to argue with her and eventually go to her supervisor to get someone to listen.

The answers aren't always where you are looking. Sometimes the only place to find the answers is when you walk with God. Making this walk is a conscious daily choice.

Accept the help that is given on your level. Don't look for something to be more than God wants it to be.

Doctors are a tool we expect to have all knowledge to help us in our crisis. But during pregnancy we find that the doctor doesn't have all the answers we need. (specifically: Why am I bleeding, How much longer will my baby live, What is normal and what indicates problems with my baby). We have to stand on our own two feet with the help of God.

"Greater is he who is in me than he who is in the world." 1 John 4: 4
