    (TMI)Well of course we couldn't go two weeks w/o drama, (I think he's gonna be a little drama king) Well I have suffered from constipation the whole pregnancy and all of the sudden complete loose stool, increase discharge and some abdominal tenderness, of course I monitored myself, only on contraction, told the nurse what was going on and she said if it continued to let the dr. know, well I emailed the dr, and withing literally 3 minutes, she said can you get to the ER now, I jumped in the shower, phoned DH and he picked me up. A few of the nurses recognized me and asked if I'd been there before, I told them I was a frequent flyer, they had a laugh. Anyways, they hooked me up to a monitor, did some urine analysis, culture the discharge, checked the cerclage. Results were Cerclage is in place, cervix is closed, no contractions, no dehydration, no ptl. I did however have a little vaginal bacteria, which my dr. said is normal, she said I shouldn't worry but gave me an antibiotic to take to prevent it from getting worse, she also put me on a BRAT diet for a day or so. she said the baby is measuring good, I was actually measuring a week ahead . I have an appt with her on monday, for my rhogam shot and cervical check, she's been out of clinic for two weeks, she told me if I want to cancel the appt I can but I just can't throw myself off schedule . I did ask her about the cerclage removal, she said to plan for 37 weeks, and then she'll induce me the same day, I thought this whole time I was looking at a c-section, but she said b/c of the IC I should do well with a vaginal delivery , I'm excited but nervous at the same time, my little man will be here in 7 weeks. Sorry this is so long but thank God it was nothing to be alarmed about. TGIF
