I spent at the wonderful Toledo Hospital ER. It was not the greatest experience due to all the chaos and noise, not to mention all the bright lights. ( I had a horrific migraine) When I finally got to see someone the equipment to check the baby wouldn't work and it took them another 20 minutes to get back to my room to start my I.V. They gave me some migraine medication (safe for baby) in my I.V. and I began to instantly wig out. I got really hot and felt very funny, which made me have EXTREME anxiety. I wanted to pull the I.V. out of my arm and get out of there. It took Josh about 10 more minutes to calm me down and I started to feel some relief.... THANK YOU JESUS.
I now have so much sympathy for those of you that have migraines as a normal occurrence. Phhheeewww at one point I was just laying on the couch crying an hoping that I would just DIE, the pain was that bad.
My stay at the ER was approximately 4 hours long, and got home quite late. BUT I have to thank my Mommy who (after driving home from N.C) came and got my kids so that I could go to the hospital! Thanks Mom you are ALWAYS there for me when I need you!!
Anyways... feel about 80% today :)
I will take that !!

I'm glad you're feeling better.
And yes, that's a good mom you have.
just a suggestion from someone who has had migraines for over 40 years to try next time. take a gallon size plastic storage bad and half fill with chopped or crushed ice, close and wrap in a towel. them place around area of head that hurts the most. move around if more than one area hurts. this help reduce the swelling in blood vessels and also the heat from the migraine. sometimes i have had to use more than one per migraine but it usually helps alot at least enough to make me not want to cut my head off and put in the freezer. glad you and baby are ok good luck and hugz.
Glad you are feeling better! Stay well.
I think for this great favor I did for you....I should be able to name my new grandson!!!!!!!lol
