Hospital Day 2

Happy Sunday Everyone!!
I apologize if this entry is misspelled or uses bad grammer- I am writing it (brett did last one) and the nurse JUST gave me some Stadol?? (SP) which is a pain reliever that makes me just a little woozy.... lol... Brett will get this joke

Update from our front:

I will get released 72 hours from last fever

Fever is 100.4 or higher.. these numbers are VERY important

Last time I ran a fever was yesterday at 4pm... woo!


So- they just look my temp a second ago- 100.2 but NO fever, which means timer doesnt restart, thats good news. They took it a second time and it was 99.1 so goin in the right direction!!!

The baby is very kicky and strong!!! Praise God!!! Every time they try to do monitoring on me-thats where they put little sensors on my stomach- she does sommersaults and kicks and its hard for them!! LOL shes already fun! The pain is getting better in the kidney area- that may be the drugs talking lol... They still do the IV when i get any antibiotics but they stopped the other fluids, I can eat and drink anything I want, however my stomachs still pretty upset so nothing looks great at this point. The nurses said that the baby will take whats she needs from my body even if I dont eat- which is great since I havent really had an appetite for about a week now.

Overall - we are hoping to be out by Tuesday at the latest. The OB who visited (not my actual OB but one in her practice) said if we arent out by Tuesday ish they will talk about putting a kidney stent in- yuk! Really hoping that wont be the case.

Brett has been GREAT! I sent him home last night so he could actually sleep... The night before we both crammed ourselves in the hospital bed- lol..... we slept but wouldnt reccomend it for mutiple nights, he really needs his rest for work and for me (so he can be well rested when I beat him a cribbage!!). Its so nice to have him, he is a wonderful comfort just to have him setting by, he actually sets on the bed with me most the day and I love it!! Its like the most ultimate cuddle time whenever I want it :), well until he goes to work Monday. A girl friend- I made up here is supposed to stop by (Danielle) and visit, it will be nice to have a guest and a much needed distraction.

Anyways my eyes are closing- medicene and restless nights taking hold! ahhhhhhhhh... lol

LOVE YOU ALL!!!!

Michelle
