Well, things have been moving kinda fast. Last Friday I started to finally miscarry the baby, so we ended up doing a D&C late Friday afternoon. It went OK. Not sure what really happened. Just know that I couldn't eat or drink after 11 am so that I could be in surgery by 7 pm. The nurses couldn't get a vein so they poked one me a lot. DR on duty finally had to come in and give me a numbing shot and then got a vein in the back of my hand. Felt kinda like a pin cushion. Hit both elbows both wrist and then got the back of one of my hands. The one on the left wrist still hurt like poop and is bruised on the inside of the wrist and the vein they were after was on the side. Anyways, other than that it was quick and easy. Came out of the surgery and woke up chatty. Nurses were laughing at me.

We came home took it easy and decided that Saturday night that we needed to just get away. Booked a room at the Sheraton on the Falls in Niagara Falls Canada for the next day. We got up early Sunday and headed out. I had to take things easy, I've been spotting and cramping a little, but we had an amazing time. We didn't really do a lot, but we had fun. The muppies got to go with us and that was an adventure within it's self :-D

We got home today and I went straight into a managers meeting at work. Well almost. Before the meeting I went to Things Remembered, and made a purchase :-) I bought a pretty bracelet that is silver and has a heart bangle on it with a "sapphire" stone. I choose the Sapphire in memory of the month in which we lost our beloved baby. It is engraved on the back "Our baby Bump" with a little scroll work. After the meeting I picked up the bracelet and showed it to Hubby. He seemed to like it. Went home and put it on a stuffed monkey that we purchased last week the day before the D&C.
This is just our way of remembering Bump... I had seen things online that you wear and decided that I liked the idea, but that although I love Bump very much this needed to be something that helps us move on, not keep us in constant mourning. So the little monkey now wears the bracelet and is placed with much love and honor in a box shelve with a couple other special items above our bed.

And now I'm up once again very late... but this time I couldn't sleep because I'm cramping. Ugh, I hope this doesn't last much longer... I was dreaming about loosing Bump all over again. I was hurting pretty badly to be dreaming and holding my tummy at the same time. Figured I needed to get up and eat something so I could take some meds. Hopefully I can get some sleep soon...
