The Strangest Thing Happened Today!

This is really weird and pretty gross, so if you are easily grossed out then stop reading now! But, aside from being gross, this is also informative and it may keep someone else from thinking that they are loosing their mind!
It all started with really bad cramps! That isn't totally out of the ordinary for me, but they were REALLY BAD! Saturday they were normal cramps, but by Sunday evening, they were getting pretty bad. All day on Monday, they were almost more than I could stand. Then came Tuesday...I felt like I was in labor. I know what labor feels like, I've done it twice! I was having severe pains in regular intervals...I really thought I was loosing my mind! I stayed in a fetal position most of the day, fighting back tears! I alternated advil and Tylenol, still no relief. Just as things got to the point where I was ready to call my OBGYN, I went to the bathroom and realized (I won't go into detail here) that I had, in fact, given birth...to my Mirena IUD! I then called my OB and talked to the nurse...there are some other big problems that we need to check on. BUT...I really was laboring.OH MY GOODNESS! Somehow my body decided that it needed to get rid of the "foreign object" and the only way a woman's body knows how to do that...when that "foreign object" is in the uterus...is LABOR!!! So, needless to say, I am exhausted and in pain after a long day of labor! This was certainly the strangest thing that has happened to me in a while! (and I don't even have a sweet baby to show for it!)

OH MY GOSH!! That is the most horrible thing I've heard in a while! Man, nothing like laboring for nothing huh. :)

Are you kidding me??? I would have been freaking smooth out if this had happened to me. I hope that you are okay and that the pain has gone away?
So, glad you are back to blogging!
