Well im finally home after spending almost
2 days in the hospital. Its freaky too.
On thursay night, I went to bed at like 11
pm and woke up at like 330 am to use the
bathroom and my right arm was kinda numb
and hurt a lil I thought it was cuz I
slept on it but then the pain continued
and I couldnt sleep. I was biting my
pillow crying then finally at like 445 am
I drove to the hospital. To make a long
story short, they admitted me cuz im
preggy and my white blood cell count was
high showing signs of infection so they
kept me over night on an i.V giving me
antibiotics to protect the baby they
wanted to prevent anything from getting to
him. This is the weird thing..... The
reason I had the infection and pain was
from a spider bite on the right arm that
was causing me pain. And then they
diagnosed me with cellulitice. Isnt that
bizarre? Im glad me and the baby r okay
but boy I wont 4get the pain I had. They
even gave me a small dose of morphine when
I first got there cuz it was so bad.
Anyway just wanted to share. ~ erica

Im not too sure on what it is exactly
myself. I need to do more research
online. But they said where its like a
skin infection and then it goes to your
blood in which my case it got into my
blood so they put me on the i.V. So the
baby wouldnt be too affected. You look it
up too for me lol. It is scary as h e l l
. I need to get some sleep though. Im
exhausted. So ill be on 2morrow. Btw
jordan what a bummer about havin to get
a c-section. You get the easy way out lol
but you'll have a rough recovery. I heard
they can be pretty painful. Do you have
any help for like the first 2 weeks? When
my aunt had her baby , I stayed for like a
week cuz she was in alot of pain and on
pain medication for having a c-section.
She had placenta previa. So she needed
lots of help with her lil boy. Take care.
Ttyl. ~ erica.
