Well, this morning I woke up with horrible cramps and was thinking it may be a miscarriage. I called the doctor and she said to drink lots of water, take some tylenol, and rest and if it worsened to call back. Well, the pain just grew worse, I was throwing up repeatedly, and was only able to take a few steps so I called back. The nurse told me they could get me in at 11:15 so I called Seth to come home and take me.
We got to the doctor and I was just in excruciating pain. They checked baby's heart beat and it was good, so they started to suspect appendicitis. They sent me to a surgeon to get checked out. He said that they would have to do a laparoscopy and there would be a 10-15% of losing the baby. That was really our only option because if it was the appendix and it burst we would lose the baby for sure.
They did the surgery this evening and sure enough it was my appendix so they removed it and the baby is doing wonderful. I am so thankful for such a great God!
Thank you for all your prayers, they were heard and the Lord deserves all the glory for the protection of this little one.

Oh Marcie! We were so worried for you! What a relief that it was appendicitis. I'm sure having surgery wasn't in the plan, but we are praising the Lord for His ways and protection.
Hopefully you can recover and start enjoying this pregnancy. So happy for you both!

Marcie, I know we've never met but I know of you through Shawna and my other friends at the Topeka chapel! I've prayed for you and Seth often over the last year.
