Hello Rashmi,

Oh, fudge. I'm off to the ER again. The pain has continued to be bad
and seems to show no sign of getting better. DH (who has been
incredible at taking care of both me and the babe) is taking me to the
hospital while my pastor watches over Kaya. Our number is
__ if you want to call and check up on me later. I don't
have the energy to post right now (I haven't for most of the day), so
if you could keep the board apprised, that would be great!

I talked to my doctor and he says it could be anything, including
appendicitis, so I need to go back to the wonderful world of the ER
and get revaluated, now that I have some other symptoms. I don't care
what it is (well, I sort of do) as long as they can figure out a way
to take away the pain. And FWIW, this pain is worse than labor
because it's constant and because it's a pain associated with
something wrong with my body instead of something natural. I never
understood that statement before (our Lamaze instructor was the one
who originally told me that the pain of labor, while very bad, is
natural and your body somehow knows what to do with it). But I
definitely understand it now!

Anyway, I'll be leaving in about 10 minutes or so. Thanks so much for
your support and concern. I really appreciate it!

love, Eileen

Eileen-you poor girl! I am so sorry for what you are going through. You sound amazingly calm about all of it. I hope by now your pain is under control and they have figured out what is wrong. Take care of yourself.

Any word on Eileen?

I got gallstones after having Declan and I can totally say that a gallstone attack is MUCH worse than labor. I can't imagine how bad appendicitis would be. Hope you're feeling better soon Eileen!
