The Miscarriage is on the down hill now YAY!

After that last post on the 17th...an hour later I started cramping up & then an hour after that FULL ON CONTRACTIONS! Every 2 min I would get a contraction. Then at 1 AM I called the doctor's office & asked if I could come in & they said to not to & that they could prescribe me some narcotics & I was like uh no way! So I had some 800 mg Motrin from when I had Amelia & so I took that & it kinda helped, but not really. Then I took a bath & after I had some blood clots & then I finally went to bed. I let the other receptionist know for sure that I wouldn't be coming in the next day (Friday). I woke up feeling good & I just took it easy & we took the kids to the park & had lunch together (I cramped a little bit walking there...) . Chris got the car windows tinted & it looks so great! It helped for our road trip....Yes we went on our road trip to Logan UT to see my sister. My sister had asked if we could pick up her Step kids in Twin Falls on our way & we said sure. We got them around 7:30 PM & then we went to Wendy's. All this time I hadn't felt that bad. Then 8 PM hit & I had major cramping again! I could barely carry the kids it was so bad! I was going to the bathroom every half hour & I was just PRAYING that it would be over! It was so terrible! Then Chris went to Target to get me some heating pads for my tummy & they helped a little bit. Then he stopped in Burley ID to go to the bathroom & when he came back I told him that I felt like I had to poop. (haha I know graphic, but I am just making record of how it all felt). Then when I went & I was pushing all of a sudden the biggest blood clot passed (the size of my fist) & I felt INSTANT relief! IT IS OVER!!!! YAY! I am so glad that it came out because that trip would have really SUCKED!
In fact the trip was AWESOME! We got to Logan around 11 PM.
On Saturday we took our time getting ready & then we went to Formosa's for lunch!! I LOVE that Chinese restaurant in UT! Their beef with broccoli & tiny spicy chicken is AWESOME! Then we went to my sister's baby shower at her mother-in-laws & it was crazy! She got so many gifts & I was so thankful that she is well taken care of. Her mother-in-law is such a nice lady & she even gave me tips on how to work my Mary Jane booties I make ;o). I gave my sister a pair for the baby & It was so fun. We also let my sister have the bouncy chair that we had & some of Amelia's clothes. There were 2 jean jackets that I never put on Amelia & I KNEW they would be a big hit with my sister, because my sister grew up in the 80's & yeah they LOVED jean jackets haha ;o). My sister-in-law, Amanda, came to the shower & it was so nice to see her!. We drove by the temple in Logan to show the kids & I said to my boy, "Benjamin doesn't it look like a castle?" And he YELLS at me & says, "NO IT IS THE TEMPLE! NOT A CASTLE!!" haha! I was like whoa & yet I was really proud LOL. I had sang I Love to See the Temple & Benjamin says, "We have a new prophet!" And he breaks into the song, "Follow the Prophet...Follow the Prophet....Follow the Prophet....Don't go astrayyyyyy...." I LOVE that Benjamin likes to sing! We got back to my sister's & got the kids into a bath & then bed. They went to bed really well...we told Benjamin that if his sissy cries to sing to her & he says, "Ok momma." awww I love that! We hung out talking to my brother-in-law & he is so interesting to talk to! He really knows a lot of stuff & he is so animated. I enjoy our chats! He shared a video of him when he went to Africa (Congo) for diamond mining. He said that the people weren't that nice & that they would follow you around. He also said that you don't shake hands over there because they consider American's above them & also he said HIV & other diseases are huge over there & so you just don't shake their hand. He said they had this competitor guy mining that had thugs stick guns in their faces etc. Pretty crazy! He also said the fatter you are the more the people think you are a rich American. Cause you can eat (like you can get food). Maybe I should move there LOL jk ;o).
The next day we got ready for the day & packed up our stuff & then we mentioned massages to my brother-in-law because he went to school for massage therapy. He worked on Chris for an hour & it was amazing how Chris' back muscles evened out! His back is always wacky! Then my bro-in-law worked on my neck mostly & then my back. I told him my knotty story LOL! Some guy in a hot tub told me I was knotty & people thought he meant naughty & we all joked "hand check" and I will never forget it because it was hillarious! So my bro-in-law says, "We will just say you are knotted..." LOL! But yeah it was amazing the movement in my neck when he got done!!! I think I carry a lot of burden in my neck! Tonight I felt it tensing up again! ugh!! Then we had grilled cheese & tomato soup & then we left for our friend's house in Ogden UT (Joe & Amy Brewer). We didn't see them last time we came to UT so we went to visit them this time. They are doing great & their little boy is so cute! It was cute to see him & Amelia together! They both had chips & they just stood there eating their chips while staring at each other LOL! Their older daughter, Jayme, has gotten taller & she seems so grown up & she is so cute! She is 6 now & I think I have known her since she was 1 or 2? She is so cute! Amy always likes to tell the story of how Joe stood up to his girlfriend in jr high (cause she sent me this nasty note to not talk to her boyfriend anymore....he & I were in orchestra together & the only members of the church LOL) and Amy says that Joe broke up with that girl because of that ;o). She is glad that he was nice to me cause we have become good friends. I am glad too cause it is just so great to know someone from your past & to have a friendship in the future with their family. We knew each other in MT & then when Chris & I moved around Logan (switching wards every year) we ended up being in their ward. Small world haha ;o). Anyway we left their house around 8 & went to Del Taco for dinner (I didn't eat because the whole time I was at Joe & Amy's I kept having to go to the bathroom...I was tore up! I don't know if it is the miscarriage or if it is from the food I have been eating.??). I teased Ben at dinner that I was gonna eat his burrito if he didn't eat it & he looks up at the menu board & says, "Momma go get some..." haha! He is too smart! We ended up leaving around 9 PM! Amelia was so grumpy, but finally fell asleep. Ben watched a show that was made in the 70's. It's like an ER or Third Watch, but not as graphic. Just shows what Fire people & hospital people do to work together. Ben loves it. Chris watched it when he was little & loved it. It's called Emergency? We hit the Hastings sale this weekend & got buy 1 box set get 1 free. We stopped at a gas station & I took Ben in & I treated him to what he wanted (he ended up not liking his treat) and I spent $11! Some of it was my treats too haha ;o). I got Crisp mint M & M's & also Cherry M & M's and chocolate Skittles! The Skittles are kinda weird, but the rest was pretty good. I fell asleep in the car after a while & we got home around 2 AM. I was so tired! I told the girl I work with that I was coming in around 9.
Work today was good. I got so tired by the end & my work slowed a lot! After I ate lunch (leftover fettuchini alfredo) I felt so sick(like the day before)! And so I kept going to the bathroom. I am scared to eat now! :o( After work I came home & Chris told me Ben wanted tatoes ;o). I LOVE tatoes so I had no problem making that! I always hate figuring out what to eat at night, but I can't resist tatoes ;o). So Ben helped me by washing the tatoes & so I made mashed tatoes with corn & chicken nuggets on top (with gravy of course). It is an easy dinner & so good!!! The kids love it. Then we went shopping had to put Ben in time out a lot & yeah got home gave the kids a bath and put to bed. I watched my show The Hills & now I am updating this LOL! I put way too much detail I know!! LOL! Well it is bed time (OVER my bed time) and I need to take my make up off UGH! I love wearing make up, but HATE taking it off! Night!
