Migraine UGGG

I NEVER get migraines and for some reason I got one today. It started between 10-11 this morning with spots in my vision and a subtle pain above my eye. I kept trying to take a nap but to no avail. I was to worried about Mikena needing me. Even though she was content scooting around in a circle on her tummy. By about 1 this afternoon it was getting much much worse. I was dizzy and getting nauseous. At 2:30, the pain was getting unbearable so I called Skyeler at work and asked if he could come home early. He said he would talk to his people and in the meantime see if I could find someone from relief society or even his co-workers wife to come watch Mikena. I really didn't know who to call because I am not overly comfortable with just anyone watching my kid and I really don't have any friends here, so I ended up texting my neighbor and asked if she could help me out and take Mikena for an hour or so while my meds kicked in and as I tried to get the pain under control. She said she would and it was a struggle for me to just get up off the couch to get a few things together and her diaper changed. It was horrible! Good thing Mikena wasn't fussy today and was very mellow. I just couldn't get her to nap with me and I wasn't comfortable napping while she rolled around in circles on the floor. Sadly once I dropped Mikena off and jumped into bed I couldn't shut my brain off and actually take a nap (I had the sunbeam song stuck in my head). But at least my meds started to kick in so it wasn't to big of a deal. Skyeler was able to get off shortly after 4 and come home and help out and I am glad he was able to... I was just feeling like crap and I felt like a horrible mom not being able to care for my kid because I couldn't get off the couch. I am so glad that I have a great neighbor who is willing to help me out and take Mikena even if it was for only an hour. It meant an hour that Mikena was able to have some attention and I was able to lay down for a bit. I Really hope that by tomorrow it will be completely gone since it is STILL lingering. I have had to take more pills and it still hasn't gone away completely. At least Sky doesn't have to go in until 12 tomorrow. LUCKY ME!!

Anyway lessons learned from today.... Make sure I take something for a headache before it gets bad, Sky is always willing to go above and beyond to help me out, and I have a great neighbor that I really should get to know more. And lastly I really need to drink more water..... A LOT more. My biggest weakness...

So thanks again neighbor for your help it meant a lot to me that you were willing to help me out.
