Why do doctors only care about unborn children and not the women carrying the unborn child? I don’t complain about pain at all. In fact, I never complain. I always go back to the fact that I was kicked in the face by horse, broke my nose in 4 places, and never cried. I can deal with pain. However, the pain I feel everytime I move is excruciating. I called L&D Tuesday and was told to rest. So, I rested for 2 days. Yesterday the pain came back and I had some spotting so I called again, went in to L&D and was monitored. Nothing was wrong with my child which is great, but that doesn’t take away from my pain. It hurts to walk, hurts to move, hurts to do anything. At L&D they told me “it’s just a part of being pregnant”. I find that hard to believe that I am in all this pain for no reason. I have seen women 9 months trucking along like it’s nothing. I know there are round ligament pains, but this is ridiculous. How can I properly care for my unborn child if I can’t even care for myself?
After going to L&D I was reassured that my son is fine. He kicked, moved, and rolled like nobody’s business. I wasn’t having contractions and I’m not bleeding or dialated. But I have severe pain that won’t go away. I just want an answer. I am happy my son is okay, but why can’t I be okay? Why can’t I get through these last 6 weeks without wanting to rip out my uterus? Why can’t these 6 weeks not feel like my uterus is being ripped out and stomped on every time I move?
I have a doctor’s appointment next Wednesday at 35 weeks. Then I will hopefully get some answers and some relief. At L&D they said I was far enough along that if labor started they wouldn’t stop it. I want my baby to cook as long as possible. I don’t want to go into labor. I just want to get rid of this pain. Is that too much to ask?
