Whoa!!!
So I FINALLY understand what everyone was talking about with that pain! HOLY CRAP!
I passed 2 stones yesterday afternoon and they felt like 9lb babies (or what I imagined a 9lb baby would feel like).
Oh man, all chipperness went down the crapper and fetal position and screaming bloody murder began. They can out eventually and then I slept for about 15 hours. Best sleep I’ve had in a month. lol
Anyways, I sent my father out to purchase me a flush so I could clear out my bowels and intestines to see if I could clear myself out and lose some of this bloat. This way, when I go in for follow ups they can X-ray me and see if there are any more stones without worrying about my being plugged up (and embarrassed).
So, after I finish my antibiotics I’ll start a probiotic flush that will help my intestinal flora and keep feeling fresh as a less-poopy daisy. hahaha
So My positivity is back!!!
Dear boyfriend and I had an amazing chat. I was finally able to let my hositility and guard down and just cry in front of him to show how much I really was hurting. He took me making the effort as a sign that it was time for both of us to work together. We talked for about 3 hours about everything and I think it really helped us bond. We used non-accusitory language and focused on using “I-statements” (ex: Something I feel like you don’t really listen and it makes me feel sad) My communication & psychology degree FINALLY came in handy. hahaha Good use of 4 years.
What we decided was that I would go to Calgary alone for a week a two to settle in and get things the way I NEED them so that I can relax and he can come out when he is able too and he’ll be able to relax as well.
So 1-2 weeks alone will help us get the space we both need without actually having the resentment of being angry and away from each other.
It was a mutual agreement! YAY! I did good! hahaha
I haven’t eaten much the past couple of days because of the pain, and I still don’t have my appeitite back so I’m just going eat light but healthy.
Tomorrow, exercise resumes.
Have a great day, Chicks! ![]()

KEEP.DRINKING.TONS.OF.WATER. It has to become part of your new lifestyle! Once a stone producer, always a stone producer (potential.)
BUT, glad they are gone. roughly how big/long were they? I’m curious. LOL
I’m on my second liter already today its noonish.
They felt bigger than they were - which I was oddly dissapointed about. I’d say they were around 3 mm..maybe? I def think they are calcium ones because they are so “small.” I have to take them into my doctor tomorrow.
For now, I’m on to a pain management routine.
they say, that passing stones is actually MORE painful than childbirth….I have never passed stones, but I have had three kids…so I can’t say one way or another…but OUCH!
take care!!!!
I have never had stone I have had two children and I feel the pain for you ouch…. When do you move to Calgary is it soon?
Take care of yourself
