The Rocky Beginning

Lets start from the beginning:
Once upon a time there was this man and this woman... they lived in WELCH. They were a happy little couple. They went hunting, fourwheeling, tubing, all the fun things you can think of! The week before the couple went bear hunting, the woman got very ill. Ill to the point of no food or water for 3 days. The woman became dehydrated and had to go to the hospital. They pumped two bags of IV fluids and told the woman she had the nasty flu/stomach virus that was going around, and to try and keep down fluids. The woman went home to lay on the couch for the 7th day..... Two days later....
A phone call came from the Doctor's office. They had some news about the blood test they ran and wanted the woman to call back right away. This was a Friday at 5:30pm. The woman called the hospital and the DR. was no where to be found. The woman assumed they were going to tell her she failed the LYME'S DISEASE test. The nurses station took her call. She was connected with the nurse that took care of her for her hospital visit. She informed the Woman to sit down. The woman stood. The nurse said, " Well your blood test came back positive that you are pregnant." She continued, " with you situation and your disease, we are unsure if this means you are truly pregnant or if you hormones are producing HCG hormones." The woman listened. This was babble to her. The nurse continued..."we need you to come in immediately to do another blood test." The woman said, "well I'll have to come in next week, I'm going bear hunting."

And that is the beginning of the journey for Miss Kelly Otto.

To say the least, it was a huge suprise. For those of you who didnt know, I have a disease called PCOS. Its an ovarian disease that can cause inferitility. Its crazy. I get 40-50 cysts on my ovaries a month... what happens is instead of releasing eggs like everyother normal woman, every egg turned into a cyst.... it never reached that pushing through the ovary stage! So it was seriously a miracle!

I switched to Red Wing, for the fact that Cannon didnt even run a dang pregnancy test before they injected me with 3 different harsh medications during my hospital visit. The nurse asked me after the 2nd drug, did Dr. Turna run a PG test.. I said No. So my confidence in Cannon took its last toll that day!

So being that it was August 31st the friday before labor day weekend, I obviously didnt get into the Dr. Office until that following Tuesday, September4th. They ran a blood test to test the HCG levels. (pregnancy hormone) I got a call back that night saying they wanted to see me the next day for an emergency ultrasound. They weren't sure what was going on, I was unsure of what was going on... so our official ultrasound was:
September 5th....
They found the grain of rice, which to my suprise was a baby! It was crazy. I though they were joking, but there it was. Weird! They took a gander at my ovaries to find 40 some cysts on my left ovary, and 50some cysts on my right. The Ultrasound technician said the baby was going to be a persistant little bugger to make it through all the cyst folicles and get fertalized. I agreed. If it is half as stubborn as me, its definatley going to be and ULTIMATE FIGHTER! :-)

More to come.......
