This has been such a rough week for me, physically and emotionally. This weekend I was taken to the emergency room (2 months pregnant) with excrutiating abdominal pain and bleeding. I had an ectopic (tubal) pregancy. My tube had torn, and I had internal bleeding into my uterus. During the exam we were able to hear the baby's heartbeat, that was the hardest thing. Then they took me in for emergancy surgery to remove the baby, and irrigate out the bleeding.( Praise the Lord they were able to save the tube.) It's hard enough to go through something like this, but it made it even harder to hear the baby's heartbeat then have the baby taken from me. I know the baby wouldn't have survived the pregnancy, nor would I, but the baby was still alive when they performed the surgery. After my hospital stay it was hard for me to check out, without my baby.
I know I am blessed to have caught this early before it was even worst for me physically, and I am very blessed to have my little girl (she does make the days better). God is good, every day is easier to get through than the one before. Physically this has been harder on me than the c-section I had to deliver my daughter. It's been a week now and I am feeling a little better. I have been suffering from migraines since the surgery, and I have never had them before, horrible. Right now I have to have 24 hour help with my daughter, I can't lift her for 2 weeks, then with the migraines, I am down a lot. I know I will get through this, just having a rough time right now. We are praying that I will be blessed with another pregnancy, later, that I can carry full term to a healthy delivery.
Any prayers are appreciated.
