So as I am sure most of you have noticed my Facebook updates about my back pain. Well, come to find out I have a kidney stone. This may be the most horrific pain I have ever experienced. I have massive tattoos on my thighs, have broken two arms, and had road rash that would make a grown man cringe.I have read many places that if I can do this than childbirth should be easy. Lets hope that is the case.
I have done a mass amount of reading on kidney stones during pregnancy and it looks like we are in for a painful 18.5 weeks. They are unable to do a CT scan to see exactly how large it is and if there is more than one. Pain medications cannot be prescribed and Tylenol doesn't even touch the pain. Treatment is very limited. My doctor has ordered me to drink a ton of fluids and that is pretty much it. I am most worried about it sending me into early labor.
