 Guess what they pulled out of me yesterday?? 
AS if my labor wasn't bad enough.....yesterday I afternnon I started to run a temp of 100.8 which only kept going up though the day no matter what I took.  I had the chills and the sweats and felt like I was dying......Not to be gross i also had this really rancid smell down there...so i thought that maybe I had developed and infection from the episotomy.  By 8:00 yesterday morning....My fever went up to 103.  I called my dr. and they told me to come in right away.  They did a vaginal exam (as if I really needed that pain) and it turns out that they had left a sponge in me when they were sowing me up...so they removed it....(thats what the smell was and thats why I had the fever.  I had developed a really bad infection.  They prescribed me antibiotics and sent me home.  By 5:00 my fever almost reached 104.  My DH freaked out and called the doctor again ......and I had to lie with ice packs all over my body.   Today the fever is gone and I feel better thatnk god......but i wasn't even able to spend anytime with my little girl!

OMG, how awful!! I can't tell you how many cases come across my desk where the doctors leave something in the patient... it's horrifying! Thank goodness they discovered what it was before any more damage was done!     h

OMG that is insane!  I hope they are paying your doctor bills for that.  How horrible. That is the last thing a new mother needs to have to deal with.

 Re: Guess what they pulled out of me yesterday?? 
omg, same thing happened to me with my 2nd pregnancy!!! it was horrifying!! luckily i found it 4 days post partum so I didn't have the smell or the temp, I just thought my ovary was falling out!!! What is the deal with that? I heard ot os very normal to use a sponge for those of us who havbe heavy bleeding, bu shouldn' the nurses take it out?
  p.s- I pulled my own sponge put and needless to say i was very unpleasant, it was the size of a small lemon!!!
  Feel better!!!
