Lunch was good and I always love sitting outside on the patio under an umbrella while it's sunny outside and eating my lunch. plus I love day dates so props to Jason for setting this up. Jason bought me some perfume and a maternity massage which was just what I have been wanting(the massage.)
After Lunch I went and got an overpriced manicure and pedicure. There are lots of Filipinos that do nails out here and they are usually really cheap and then they ask you if you want something in VERY broken English and you accept cause you just don't know what they are saying and then at the end of your service you end up paying twice the amount you were planning on paying, geesh! My nails look great, but the so called massage was pretty much non existent. Whatever, I won't go back to that salon again. I really was hoping to get a really long foot massage so hopefully my maternity massage will surpass my expectations and I will be able to get it done here in the next few weeks, since I am down to 3 weeks til my due date!
Well I went to pick up Kailah and as I was leaving we were walking down my friends stairs and I fell down the last 4-5 stairs, kailah in tow. As I was falling I remember thinking oh no catch Kailah and then right before I hit the ground I tried bracing myself thinking oh no the baby! I landed on my back right butt/thigh/hip area and immediately I felt pain in the opposite area of my body in the front pubic bone area. I immediately started crying, not because I was hurt, but because I was worried that I may have hurt the baby and I didn't want to get up and move because I didn't know what I had hurt and if moving was going to hurt more. Poor Kailah was a toughie with a few scratches on her legs and not one thought about how she was hurt, but started asking me if I was ok, "ok mama?, ok?" We went back into my friends house and I immediately called my doctor and said I was coming in and I had fallen and wanted to check on the baby.
Jason met me at the hospital to help out with Kailah. We did tests on the baby monitoring his heart and he seemed to be fine. He is still very active, and falling surprisingly didn't give me more contractions or anything. Dr. gave me some pain meds and ordered bed rest for 24-48hrs, for my sake. He must have known the pain I was about to go through.
I was in some pain making it a little hard to walk but I was still able to drive to the doctors and get home by myself but Jason needed to help carry all my bags and Kailah cause by the time I got home I couldn't carry anything and it was getting harder to walk.
For the next hour I sat on the couch and the next time I tried to move, I couldn't move anything! It was hard to move from my waist down. I started getting worried that some serious damage was done to my hips or bones or something so we called a few doctors for a second opinion and we called my OB again who said if I came in he would just give me more pain medication. Jason and I decided not to fill the prescription my OB gave me for pain cause we thought I could tough it out and we didn't want it to affect the baby in a bad way, but by ten that night Jason was on his way to fill the prescription since that was the only thing that could help me in any way.
That night our friend came over and helped Jason give me a blessing that I would be able to walk again by the following night so I could begin to take care of myself and that Jason could go back to work. After the blessing Jason surprised me with one BIG piece of cake and a single candle. All I was talking about all day was that I was going to make my own cake and celebrate with Kailah that evening because Jason was going to be at his soccer game, and I still wanted something special. Anyways, It was really weird cause our friends were still there and they didn't know it was my birthday and Jason just walked in and started singing so I bet they felt a little weird. haha. Anyways I'm glad I got my piece of cake at least! :)
Jason took a picture of me right after the cake and singing, saying I would want to remember this. Well my camera was on the completely wrong settings and he didn't realize it, so here is me on my 25th birthday at the end of the day!
Glamorous huh?!?!.....well, at least my overpriced nails looked pretty! :)
