Appendicitis during pregnancy

Nunu

Hi moms and moms to be,

I just wanna share my terrifying experience while I’m in my 13 weeks 2nd trimester, and had appendicitis.

It was Easter night and I had a strange feeling about my pain not related to pregnancy. Went in to emergency and did some blood work, and was told I had to an laparoscopic appendectomy procedure immediately.

Thanks to the doctors nurses and modern medicines and studies backing up research, it is safest option to the procedure if you’re in 2nd trimester. The ultrasound showed I had a minor ruptured but in the local area. If such that I had vaginal bleeding, of course come in to emergency. But so far 5 days in recovery, I’ve been well.

I just wanna let moms know, do not read too much into the internet, seek medical help and get medical advice from an actual medical person.

To all moms who had the experience, if you know you know. :)
