Scary night (slightly TMI)

Everything was going ok, then I went to use the restroom before bed.  The light was off, but I could still see it...bright red...quite a bit of it, too.  I was bleeding.  I just stared at it, first thought that came to mind was 'How can I possibly deliver another deceased child?'.  Alex came in the room, and I told him..he asked how much, so I wiped again and there was more.  I can't really explain the feeling I got at that point, except maybe that I would faint?  My whole body went limp..and numb.  Alex asked if there were any clots, I said no.  I just sat...wiped a few more times, until it got down to very little blood.  I asked Alex (apparantly my new OB/GYN) to look down there, see if he could see anything.  He couldn't see a source of it, but after I had wiped enough, I realized it was coming from the outside!  Not the inside!  I was so worried because I've had such horrid back pains and ligament stretching the last few days...  Needless to say, neither of us is in 'normal' spirits today.  I, myself, am especially cranky and short-tempered, and I can only think that the scare last night has caused it.  My hormones have been pretty much in check this pregnancy, so I don't think that's it (tho it's contributing now).  It was just horrible, and tho I know it was just a cut or something on the outside, I still can't help but be a little worried.  I still can't believe it...it was terrorifying. 

On a diff note, Kait's dentist appt got rescheduled yet again!  She still has those 2 broken teeth!  Her new (tentative) appt time is the 30th...thank goodness she's not in pain with it, geez...  She's having a helluva time getting long addition/subtraction.  I thought she had it at first, so we moved on...she's got multipication down great (1-10's), but just can't get borrow/carry a 1 deal.  Today was not the day to do it with her, I am so off-kilter..but I did.  Think I'll give her tomorrow off, I was pretty rough on her today.  I sent her out to play now, so hopefully she'll enjoy some of her day, anyway.

That's enough for today...hoping maybe getting it off my chest, I'll feel a little better.
