So, I think my uterus is okay.
I do not have an Ectopic pregnancy. That is when the baby inplants in the fallopian tube instead of in the cozy lining of the uterus. It is a rare thing, but it happens, and im at a slightly increased risk because i have an IUD (Intrauterine device). It requires surgery to remove the fetus, otherwise it means partial or total loss of the reporductive organs, or in some cases death.
BUT. Its not that, so i can rest easy. I am curious as to why one side of my uterus is aching though. Tomarrow's ultrasound should help determine that. Either way i am having my IUD removed ASAP. It makes me nervous. I dont like the idea of this little thingy making my uterus toxic. A friend of mine liked the mini pill....maybe ill switch to that? I dunno. Being around all these pregnant women.....i get baby fever sometimes. My kid is only 17 months though, so I really would rather not go there just yet. I have so many plans! Is that selfish? I dont want to have another baby bacause I want to continue to be an educator and a doula, and then after the house is done I want to apply to midwifery school. That is an intensive 3 year program ( and before I even go I have to complete one year of college), afterwhich I think I will be eager to start my own practice.......
Shit. When will I have another kid?
