I've officially declared last week as one that I'd rather not have experienced. Monday my mom went to the doctor. They told her she had a bad flu and put her on an antibiotic. By Tuesday afternoon she'd been vomiting virtually non-stop since Monday night. Tuesday the doctor told her to go to the ER. Tuesday night they admitted her in the hospital for dehydration. Wednesday, I went to visit her and she didn't really know I was there; she was vomiting or sleeping the entire time. Wednesday night they moved her to ICU because she'd shown warning signs of a stroke. Her blood pressure was so high it was over 200/160. Thursday I went to see her in ICU and she was doing better. She hadn't eaten since Monday, but she was well hydrated and they'd maintained a healthy blood pressure for the entire afternoon. Friday morning I woke up and was bleeding... SO, I was advised to go to the hospital by my OB. Friday afternoon they admitted me for observation. I'm fine and the baby is fine. They have no idea what caused the bleeding, so I have to go to the doctor on Thursday or Friday this week. The good news is the Placenta Previa has corrected itself, so I don't have to worry about that anymore. We will still have another ultrasound in 4 weeks, but the doctor said I'm a very healthy pregnant woman with a very healthy child, so I don't have to worry...
My mom was supposed to be moved from ICU yesterday. But, they changed her BP medication and her BP dropped to 80/50. So, they wanted to keep her for more observation. UGH! I'm on bed rest until Monday morning, so I can't go to the hospital to visit her.
The only thing I can really say that has been positive in the last week is my family has been phenomenal. My husband has been so sweet and helpful. He's taking very good care of me and Mariana, emotionally and physically. My entire family has been supportive and loving. This week, however, better be an improvement.
