Thanks for your prayers

I guess the unknown is always scarier. Now that I am done. I am thinking, that was no big deal. Hehe.

The procedure went well. We got to the hospital at a little after 12 noon and finally got an IV in me at around 2:30 pm or 3 pm. It took 2 tries. The first try was quite painful as the nurse decided to stick and dug instead of being sure before going in. She finally gave up after I said she hit a nerve and then found another nurse who got a smaller gage needle and did it in one try with no digging! I got to the surgery room at 5:15 pm or so and we were done at around 5:50 pm. I was under general anesthesia and it was like one moment I was closing my eyes, another moment my doctor was calling my name telling me it was done. As I slowly woke up, I could feel that its tender inside my womb but it wasn't that bad. The only bad part was I got really nauseous after the general anesthesia. I did throw up and that felt better. At around 9 pm I finally felt up to going home. The only downside was this hospital was a bit of a drive so it was a really rough ride for me as I was still feeling nauseous. By the time I got home, I was hungry but couldn't eat that much and had a raging migraine.

The nausea from last night made me realized how incredibly blessed I am that I really have not had much morning sickness. I didn't have m/s at all during my first pregnancy and just a little once in a while during early this pregnancy. I can't imagine feeling this nauseous on an ongoing basis! We witnessed a good friend who went through hyperemesis gravidarum and both and Jong and I were saying we don't know how she got through that.

I am feeling better today. Still quite tired and my head feels tender. As for the cerclage, I don't really feel it as long as I am lying down. I have had a bit of bleeding but its less when I am lying down so I am going to try to stay low for now.

We will be going back to our doctor for a check up on Friday. Thank you so much for your prayers!
