Tiny rant

Anna

I don’t have anywhere else to put this, but I’m trying really hard not to stress out. My husband and I officially started trying again this month. We had a loss in 2017, and it’s taken me over a year to get my cycles back to normal, although we do have a healthy and happy almost-two-year-old. We knew it would be expensive (our insurance is bad... really, really bad), but felt confident that we could handle the expense. So, we baby danced on the two days I knew I was ovulating, plus several other times throughout my fertile period. Well, yesterday my husband started having chest pains, and I found out at the hospital that it was not the first time. He ended up in the hospital, but we have no results other than stress and blood pressure issues. I would guess it’s partially related to anxiety, but I don’t know. I’m honestly just happy that he’s okay, and that at least for the time being, we have no major issues that are going to cause problems immediately. That visit to the hospital is going to cost $4,000+, though. The silver lining here is that $4,000 is or whole family’s deductible. Now that it’s met, our insurance will pay 80% until our expenses hit $6,250 or something, and then cover at 100%. I’m kind of (maybe stupidly) praying that this is our month, because our little one would be born before the year’s end. It’s okay if it’s not this month, but that would put us waiting for a while so we can get better prepped for a second little one. I’m just stressing. I know it will be okay. I know that medical bills just are what they are, and life happens. I just need something to look up. It’s been a very rough year and a half (outside of watching my beautiful daughter grow), and I’m trying to stay positive. Thanks for reading if you did, and please send whatever good thoughts you have my way. 💜
