TAC surgery

We found out a week before Lane's first birthdaythat I am pregnant with baby #3!  Total shocker as I usually like to plan these things out & wanted Lane to be 2 before #3 came. But anyhow due to my precancerous cervical celss & having had a leap & a cone surgery, my doctors told me that when ever I discover I'm pregnant- that I need to have a Trans Abdominal Cerclage. Without it, baby would just fall out during 2nd trimester as there is noting to hold it in. So today I had that surgery. We had a terrible ice storm & the morning we had to leave at 5am, it was dark, freezing & ice covered. Jon was vomit sick that morning & said he was fine to drive. We stopped at the store for him to get a Gatorade & when he came out, he leaned over by te driver door to be sick. He still hadn't vomitted yet but the nausea was bad. I told him then that I would drive since he could not. Once we got there & into a triage room, he asked the nurse checking me in for the silver bucket thing to be sick in. From then on, every doctor or nurse that came in knew he was sick too. When my doctor got there, he gave Jon a prescription for Zofran & had the nurse get it. After about a half hour, Jon finally got it up & we could ear them paging some code in our room because thye could hear poor Jon! When I was wheeled back for surgery, they gave Jon my bed & took care of him so we were both patients!
 I was awake for it & thye said it would be alot like a C-section. Since I had never had a C-section before, this was new for me. They did a local & then doctor would say when he was cutting & then he started saying things like, "ok there's the bladder, let's move it, oh there's the uterus, ok tie right there" & I kept thinking "if you keep giving a play by play, I'm going to barf". Then the nurse guy kept asking me questions & I was thinking "if you don't stop talking to me I'm going to be sick". So then I barfed- well technically heaved as there was nothing in my stomach but anesthesia seems to do that to me. Anyhow, it was quick & I was in Duke for 2 days. All is good. They keep checking me about every 2-3 weeks & all is well!
