Giving thanks again!

On Sunday, I had a weird thing happen where I got a sudden pain through my whole back but it seemed to radiate from my mid-back- it was really difficult to tolerate and in spite of massages and trying to sit down and relax, I couldn't seem to get it to go away. I also got chills and felt feverish and started throwing up and it was pretty scary, just because we didn't really know what was going on. Thankfully the pain never moved toward my uterus or abdomen or I really would have freaked out, I think.

I did my best to relax and finally, with the help of a heating pad and Juan Carlos holding my hand, I was able to fall asleep. I slept for a half hour or hour and when I woke up, I felt like new. WEIRD!

I decided to call and tell the doctors about it just in case it meant more to them than it did to me and they wanted me to come in today. I once again feel like the luckiest woman on earth after hearing the baby's heartbeat and hearing that everything seems fine. Juan Carlos on the other hand got so worked up and worried that now he's having a hard time letting that go. He told me this morning before he left for work that he already loves our baby so much. I'm just in awe about watching a man I love so much love our child so much- what an incredible gift. I have so much to be thankful for. Thank you, Lord- a thousand times, thank you!
