Once again this pregnancy is taking its toll. I woke up at 1:30am with horrible stomach cramps and nausea. The pain was so severe it kept me up most of the night. By 8:00am my stomach hurt so bad that I had no choice but to head to the hospital. I dropped the kids off at Mom's and Matt took me to the ER at the closest county hospital (I was not about to go to the base for something that could be serious).
It was quite a long day (made worse by the stomach cramps and nausea), the ER was flooded with patients. I had a battery of tests run: an ultrasound, blood drawn and a urine sample. The tests came back fine. The baby is fine and moving around during the ultrasound. The doctor is not sure why I am having such bad cramps. It could be the stomach flu, something I ate (but highly unlikely since no one else is sick), or the early stages of appendicitis. We have to see how I feel in the next 24 hours to determine if my appendix needs to come out.
We appreciate your prayers and support through this rocky pregnancy. We will let you know how I am feeling over the weekend.

HI Michelle, I had the same thing going on a few days ago with cramping and upset stomach and no one else in my family felt that way. So I am praying you had an uncomfortable bug that has since passed. We will keep you in our prayers for a smoother pregnancy. God Bless, Tamara
