Moment of Terror

First ....Happy Birthday Monk!

I was in the bathtub yesterday morning and looked down between my legs to see pinkish/red clots floating in the water. At first, I saw 2 ...frantically started to look around ...and they were everywhere. I can't even describe the next five minutes except to say total panic. Eventually, I did some investigation. Umm...nothing coming from the baby maker that I could find. Maybe I cut my leg shaving? Ummm..no. What the hell? Got of the tub, crying, sure that I was losing the baby even though I couldn't find any direct evidence of that. Called for Monk ...asked him to investigate while I curled myself into a ball on the bed. I hear him start swearing ....look up ..

And he's holding a bottle of pomegranate-mango body wash that is umm...very pinkish/red ...that I was using to shave my legs.

Psssssyyyyyyyyycccccchhhhhhoooooo.

Glad that's all it was.

Reminds me of the time that DH's sister had the stomach flu and vomited while taking a shower, all over the place. She cleaned it up after, but then when I went to take a shower I saw what looked like globs of puke, and ran out of the bathroom in a panic, almost nude. Turned out to be dried body wash.

Oh honey...in between laughing, you completely had my sympathy. I probably would have panicked too.
