Last Baby Blues

This is my second pregnancy and was smooth for the first two trimesters. At 28-29 weeks I was hospitalized for kidney stones. I had stones almost the exact same time with my first pregnancy and after 4 days passed the stone. This time I wasn’t so lucky, my ureter was extremely dilated and the doctors decided I needed to have a stent placed.

After that I have been in soooo much pain and discomfort. I have been peeing blood, constant burning sensation and need to urinate. I have called the urologist and OBGYN several times, they’ve ran tests and no infections were seen. They have exhausted all efforts and can’t give me much medication wise. So now I am stuck in pain/discomfort until delivery. I’ve been scheduled to be induced at 39 weeks on June 15th.

Yesterday I had an extremely emotional appointment as everything came pouring out. All my frustrations, being in pain, I cried my entire appointment. We’ve always kept the option of possibly having a third baby but yesterday my husband told me he wants this baby to be our last. He told me that he hates seeing me in pain and he is perfectly fine with our (almost) two girls.

I am almost 33 weeks pregnant and didn’t realize that this would be our last baby. I’m having a hard time with it. I feel like if I would’ve known this was our last baby from the beginning I would feel different about it. 🥺 I’m just trying to embrace the rest of this pregnancy now and push past the constant pain I’m in since it’ll be my last pregnancy 😭
