Complications

I was so excited about being done with this pregnancy a month early and having a healthy baby to show for it. I guess I'm not really that lucky. Sunday I was having quite a bit of pain so we went in to the same-day care. 5 1/2 hours later after several tests and ultrasounds I was told I have some "retained products of conception". That could be a piece of placenta, or membranes, or blood clots. I had to go in again Monday to see if my OB wanted to do a D and C. He said he prefers to take a watch and wait approach. So now I am hoping that I don't get any heavy bleeding or signs of infection, in which case I would still have to have a D and C. So far it has just been some pain, but it is getting frustrating that I am not recovering as quickly as I want to. I just keep telling myself that at least it's me dealing with complications and not Eli. He is doing great! Eating well, sleeping lots, and pooping all over us!
