THE WORST WEEKEND EVER

A week before Christmas I was making a list of what I still needed to buy. I realized that I had to buy a certain gift my son had been wanting for a while. So my husband and I got dressed and went to the mall around 8:00 o’clock Friday, well we go into the toy store and bought his gift but as soon as we got out of the store I slipped on a spilled drink in the hallway. I was pretty embarrassed but also pretty pregnant. I was 31 weeks pregnant and when I fell I hit the side of my stomach as well as my back on the wall. Two men helped me up and I called the mall security, after 3 calls and 30 minutes, they finally came to take my claim. Then suddenly I began to cramp and I told my husband to take me the hospital to make sure the twins were okay. The E.R staff was very friendly and I didn’t wait too long to be seen but maybe it was because they thought I was in labor!! After explaining to them why I came in they put me in a room and put some machines and monitors just to make sure the twins were okay. Then the doctor comes in and tells me that I had to stay there until Sunday to monitor the babies’ heartbeats. They had to put an IV on me and it burned and itch so bad! The first night was horrible I had to lie completely on my back so they could hook up the monitors on my stomach. I have trouble breathing when I lay on my back because the babies push on my lungs plus I had just hurt my back with the fall and all that night I cried and cried because I was in so much pain. The second night was not soo bad other than feeling like I was hyperventilating thankfully to God, my babies were just fine and I was able to go home Sunday night. I’m just glad that it was over and hopefully when I do go back to the hospital when I’m going to deliver I won’t be in too much pain
