As always my life never has a dull moment. On Saturday me and the girls went shopping for a gift for a party we were attending and while walking in the parking lot I was hit by a car. Yes me, and not me in a car. The dumb b**** in an SUV wasn't paying attention and tagged my right side. It wasn't very hard thankfully, and I think I was more shocked than hurt. It all happened so fast, and all I could do was stand there for several minutes in disbelief. I wasn't able to get any information off the car and the driver could've cared less than she hit a person...let alone a PREGNANT person!!!
I didn't go to the ER cause I wasn't feeling any pain and the impact wasn't very hard- I later regretted this decision very much so. The next day I of course started feeling pain where the baby is and immediately freaked out. Chris was still with the guys on the camping trip so I waited til around noon to head to the hospital in hopes he would get there sooner than later. Luckily while I was on my way there I found out he was back in Phoenix, and he was able to meet me there.
After waiting 6 hours in the ER we found out that the lil one was doing just fine and was moving around a ton! It was even drinking amniotic fluid...so cool! I was completely mesmerized by the whole thing. A huge sigh of relief came over me knowing our baby was doing ok. The tech said it was measuring almost two weeks ahead and weighed 7 oz already- that's double what they're supposed to weigh at this point!
The next day I had some light spotting so my OB had me come in to check things out and she did ANOTHER ultrasound. Our little one was just fine, and even started sucking it's thumb!!! SOOO SWEET! Here are some pics from that appointment:
16 weeks 5 days
I am amazed how you can love something so much that you haven't even met yet. Our appointment went well and she said the baby looked great and it was probably nothing but to take it easy. Ha, has she met me???
