my sleepover in the maternity ward

This is the first scare iv had and i hope it never happens again.

So i woke up at around 3am monday the 19th of march with intense pains in my lower abdomen i layed in bed till about 4 thats when the pain got worse so i got up had a little walk to the kitchen made some tea and wanted to wait it out till someone woke up cause i really thought it wasn't that important. I waited and waited and the pain never went away at 5 my boyfriend called me and he was getting ready to go out bush with the army , its like when they go camp with all there gear and guns like as though they were at war but yeah i couldnt talk to him for long because the pain was getting worse so i told him i was going to have a shower to see if the cramps would go away so thats the last i heard from him. I went and had a shower but it made me feel light headed so i got out got dressed and when i walked out dad was awake this was around 530 i told him how i was feeling and went back and layed down, the water did help so i ran a bath and layed in that till around 630 i got out and the pain was still there so i asked him to wake mum to take me into the doctors i layed back down while she was in the shower and drifted off to sleep i woke up around 730 and left to go see my doctor still very much in pain i got in there and seen a nurse who said i looked like i was in labor so she called the doctor in and he said the same thing he then checked me and of course i wasn't they just liked to scare me anyway he asked were the pain was and i showed him. It was right were my appendix is so of course they said it was Appendicitis he then booked me in for an emergency ultrasound at 2 in the arvo and sent my to the hospital they put the drip in took blood and checked my blood sugar levels. My pulse was fine as was my blood pressure they checked the babies heart beat again it was 148 beats per min. Doctors came in and told me they were not really sure what to do because i was pregnant and you couldn't knock me out for surgery to remove my appendix so they said to wait it out and that i did... i had been up since 3 and had not eaten they wouldn't let me either just incase they had to operate i was really hungry and thirsty i layed in the bed till about 2 and they took me off the drip and left the needles in my arm they then sent me down to ultrasound. The ultrasound guy was awesome he had a guy working with him who was learning how to do stuff and he said if i let this learner have ago he would give me a 4D ultrasound so i was like ummm yeah!!! i think my baby was supper grumpy with all these people poking him and would not stop moving :D everything was fine he was doing great had grown alot in the 3weeks since i had seen him so i got afew photos and was sent back to hospital they said they wanted to keep me overnight i wasn't to impressed because they wouldn't let me eat and wouldn't take the needles out of my arm and hand ect i had started feeling better and just wanted to leave but nope. After 17hours of not eating they gave me a glass of water and a hot meal food never tasted so good. i had weighed myself that morning and i was still 51kg so after not eating all day i went back to 50kg at around 8 i went to bed with really sore arms and was getting woke up every hour either by a crying baby or a nurse i got woken up Tuesday morning at 7am and i felt fine they checked babies heartbeat and he was fine it was 149 beats per min then they checked me and all was good they took blood and came back good to i felt fine cramps were gone so mum came back in at 8 and we waited to see a doctor who said if any cramps come back to drive back in! so i was free to go the nurse took my needles out and boy were my arms so sore from sleeping with them in! i got home round 11 and had a nap. it feels so good to be home..
