My Fall
I fell on Saturday. I tripped on the way to rehearsal for our musical. Caught myself on my hands and knees. My friend, Mimi, the nurse was there. She called my doc and he said to go to the hospital just in case. Of course, I am at this point an emotional wreck. It really scared me. So I went. They drew blood and monitored the baby’s heart, all standard procedures. They also monitored my uterus for contractions. Well, I had some mild ones that I could not feel. But I had a lot. I think it was all stress induced, but long story short, because I had some contractions, I had to stay overnite. The only time my contractions happened was when I had visitors or people called to talk to me about it- I am not sure what that was all about. It was probably that I needed rest and did not really get any and I was very anxious, the nurses eventually advised against me talking about it or having visitors. Anyway, I was discharged yesterday, and I am feeling much better. Please keep me in your prayers! Praise the Lord, Tristan looked great, strong heartbeat, VERY active. I think I am just still rattled by it all. Pregnancy is a crazy world of unpredictability, I tell ya!

Praying........
May your heart be filled with the peace of His presence!
Love,
Nicki - we've been praying our guts out for you and sweet Tristan! I'm so glad you're home and everything seems to be ok. I'll continue praying for you to be calm and peaceful, and for your anxiety to go away. Lots of love coming your way!
Nic,
It is kind of like when you cry when you are already sick...it only makes you feel worse! I understand the anxiety thing (on a different level, of course), but try to remember that someone who knows all things is in control.
Oh yeah, and try to stay on your feet! :) Do we need to get you a hover-round scooter?
hey ya'll! prayer is what's keeping me up! i am so thankful to have such a wonderful prayer support system! one day i am going to get to tell tristan how much he was prayed for before he was even born!
cor,
i would loooove a hover-round! i think it is needed at this point! hahaha!
Whew, I am so glad you are feeling better! We will be praying for continued recovery and joy and peace in this precious journey!
oh woman..how scary. i'm so sorry you had to go thru all of that. thank God Tristan is okay and you are home.
I'm so sorry you fell and had to go through that, but thank goodness everything looked okay and that you're feeling better now! There's nothing scarier than being worried about your child. I'll be praying for you! Love you and baby Tristan!
I'm so glad you and Tristan are okay!! Be careful, my friend! It's so easy to fall with the change in your balance. Try not to worry...I'm sure the stress was worse on you than it was on your sweet boy.
How scary! I'm so glad you are and Tristan are okay! We'll keep you in our prayers!
