Hi Tashia,

Congrats on your new coming baby!
I think second babies are harder. Or at least for me, . One day I didnt feel good, I felt kinda stiff and just yucky period. I just kept going, doing all the things I needed to do. I had a daughter, I had animals I had to take care of too, hubby & house to take care of, dinner to fix, plus I worked two 12 hr shifts as a prison nurse twice a week. I just kept doing it.
In the middle of the night I woke up and could hardly breath from the pain in my side. I couldnt even stand up straight. I sat on the side of the bed and finally got it together. I really shouldnt have drove but I woke up my husband told him I was sick and told him I was leaving. I think I was gone before he fully woke up. My daughter was only 18 months at the time and she was fast asleep.
Anyway, at the ER they told me it almost positive it was an ectopic pregnancy. I was devastated since I went thru hoops to have this baby.
Next thing I knew I woke up two days later. I guess I woke up before that, but it just seemed like a dream to me, I dont remember it.
The baby was fine, the ER was wrong.......I was overworked......tired......exhausted. Hormones crazy too.
It scared my husband so much he took a week off work to help me, he took care of the dogs and dinner. My mom came too to do house work & laundry too. I just needed help, but I didnt know how to ask for it.
Maybe you need someone to help you and your lil girl and baby you right now?
