Well, that was scary.

So about 2 hours ago I had this intense pain in my lower abdomen. It was kind of like a cramp, but really intense. It dropped me to my knees instantly. It lasted a few minutes, and then went away. Of course I did what any home-alone pregnant woman would do - panicked. I think it was a Braxton Hicks contraction, but I'm not sure because everything I've read said that they should only cause "discomfort" and not actual pain. Well let me tell you, that hurt. A lot. So I wrote down the time and if it happens again...well, I don't know. I'd like to be able to call somewhere and ask if I should be worried, but the only places open are emergency rooms. Of course it had to happen on a Friday :/ And I meant to call the insurance people today and see of that was approved yet, and I forgot to. So now I'm screwed until Monday. All I know is that they better get this shit figured out soon because I need to go to the damn doctor. I haven't had any real pain since earlier, just the normal achiness. I guess for now we'll just wait and see if anything happens. I don't think it will, but who knows. It makes me wonder if I shouldn't just stay home tomorrow instead of going out of town. But Mom won't be around anyway, so maybe it's just as well that I'm with Andy...Ugh, I don't know.
