Had to grab my go-bag last night...doing better today.
When I hit 24 weeks I packed my overnight bag just in case I had to go in. Well I'm glad I had it packed because I did make a short trip to the hospital last night. I didn't feel contractions, but my uterus and stomach felt really tight constantly. Usually when I drink water and lay down it goes away, but last night I couldn't get comfortable and called my OB who advised to go in.
I had a really long day at work, 13 hours, and probably didnt get enough fluids. On top of that they did find that I had a UTI, which was causing the uterine irritability.
They put my belly on the heart monitor for the baby and the contraction monitor. Everything looked good and I felt better after the IV fluids and starting the anabiotic's for the UTI.
Hoping that's my last trip to triage until my scheduled C-section!
Hope this finds you all healthy and enjoying your pregnancy!
