Stuff---exciting and angsty

Hey ladies...so the exciting stuff first! Last weekend FI and I ordered our invitations from vistaprint, picked a place for the rehearsal dinner (a brewery with a really fun, laid-back vibe), and convinced FMIL that it was a good idea and not a bad thing to have a casual RD. We also chose tuxes for the guys. Smile It's exciting. I feel like we've really been on a wedding-planning role lately.

Now for the angst. Every so often FI has been getting lots of pain in his abdomen which has lasted a few hours. He went to the doctor finally and they said they think it's stress/IBS being exacerbated by stress but they did send him for an x-ray and an ultrasound. The dr. did say more than once that he doesn't think it's anything serious but I"m still trying really really hard to not get all worked-up and nervous. All the same...vibes please!

    Good luck to your FI. I agree with PPs, try not to worry too much. I know it's hard... I am a big worrier myself and always imagine the worst. But you guys are doing the right thing by not ignoring it and trying to get a diagnoses. Keep us posted!

    Congrats!

    And good luck with the IBS thing. Stress related issues are the worst. I'll hope you have some answers soon.

    Oh, it must be so hard to not worry too much. I'm a worrier and I have the tendency to worry myself sick. I sure hope you guys find out what it is soon. Hopefully it's something easily treatable. I'll be thinking of you guys!

    Good luck with the stomach issues.  Fi went through all kinds of testing last year for stomach pains, and all they could conclude was that it was a physical manifestation of anxiety (ridiculously frustrating that that's all they could decide on).

    It can be really frustrating, but my best advice is to not get too worried about it when they're testing.

    congrats on the checks!!

    positive vibes your way...anything involving abdominal pain can be scary, since it can be anything from IBS to something more serious. i will send positive thoughts your way!!! IBS and stress sucks, but hopefully it is nothing more than that!!

    vibes your way!!!  Hopefully it isn't anything too serious..but don'e get too worked up over it!  If anything it may be his gallbladder or just the stress & IBS like you said.

    Thanks everyone! I'm really grateful that you all are so supportive and awesome! It even makes me feel better just being able to say it somewhere instead of just trying to smile and be calm. I'll keep you guys posted. They anticipate knowing what's going on by around 2/16
