Ok Seriously?!?

Ok Seriously, Can we not just catch a break or what? I swear when it rains is pours. Sol goes into work on Monday and calls me 2 hours after he left and says "well baby, I now have Mondays off!" He lost his first account to the crappy economy and the accounts that he does still have dont have much work either since nobody is buying cars right now!
Then on Wednesday everything starts going down hill. I wake up and go pee and there is blood on the toilet paper. I see it and think to myself Hmm, we will have to watch that today and try to lay low as much as possible today. Well it happened again so same thing,"hmm, we will have to watch that." Then I sit down at the table to work on some letter worksheets with Kylee and Chles and I get a GUSH, like oh my goodness, what was that, running down my legs. Yup, its blood and LOTS of it! So I call my dr and they tell me to go to the Emergency room. So then I call my Whitney and ask her to keep the girls for me and of course she says yes. So I start sprinting around my house getting me ready for all the tests they will probably do, the kids dressed and a bag rounded up with enough stuff to keep them entertained so poor Whitney doesnt loose her mind with my kids plus her new 2 month old. I get the kids dropped off and get to the er and realize that I havnt called Sol and told him any of this. So I call him and realize that my phone is soo almost dead like its beeping at me. So I try to call him anyways and it rings twice then dies. So they call me back and get me all hooked up to everything in the room-even a cathater, and IV, bloodpressure thing and the red finger light thing. They do blood tests and all kinds of ultrasounds and determine that there is no fetal movement or heartbeat and we lost the baby sometime last week and I should go home and get ready to pass it. So I call Sol on the hospital phone (all kinds of drama with the hospital phone too) and tell him whats going on and then call Whitney and tell her whats going on and I will be there in a minute to get the kids. So I just leave my phone dead-dont really want to talk to anyone but Sol at this point and I know my phone is just blowing up with calls and texts if I turn it back on. Go back home and call Sol on the house phone and tell him I am going to come to his work in Rivergate and get some money to go get the needed supplies for my looming miscarraige. Can I just tell you how freakin crazy it is to actually know that you are going to have a miscarraige?!? Totally bizaar!
So we go to target and get all my needed stuff including a filled RX for lortab. Sol decided to go and get our phones switched over to sprint since my phone was broke and now is a time to have a decent working phone. So we go to the sprint store and get my phone then go home and prep for my looming miscarraige. Ya that night it didnt happen. So I get up and go to my dr appt with my OBGYN at 8 am per er discharge papers and wouldnt ya know it I am not even on the schedule?!? So they fit me in and the dr does another ultrasound on me and determine that yes the er dr was right no more baby and that my body isnt realizing that the baby died and isnt thrying to pass it-I was not bleeding anymore at all or cramping up. So we schedule a D&C for Friday at noon. So no food or drink after midnight and I check into the hospital at 11 AM.
I called Rachel and she said she would keep the kids and let them sleep over friday night so we didnt have to worry about getting me home and dealing with kids. And Sol called in work and told them what was going on so he would be able to stay with me.
Everything with the procedure was fine. The anesthesia was awesome, I loved it! I decided that if you are going to have a miscarraige then the D&C is the way to go!
So I am all loopy, so if this is all jumpy or rambling-ish thats they. They have me on percoset,lortab and heavy motrin. I am not allowed to take a bath for a week or lift anything over 10 lbs or drive myself anywhere so I am starting to get frustrated with not being able to go anywhere unless Sol is driving me.
I am acutally surprising myself with how calm I a have been, I havnt been falling apart with this one like I did with my first miscarraige. I have huge comfort knowing that this isnt the end of this baby and I will see it again and have a chance to raise it and hold it in the next life. As bad as this week has been I am so much more thannkful for my wonderful family and friends who have sent all the well wishes, prayers, and have helped with everything from meals to kids to fetching pills. Love you all!
