Tuesday started out as a great day after welcoming my new niece into this world, but as the night went on things got worse. I started feeling really nauseaus Tuesday night around 9:00pm and I had a really bad "burning" feeling across my stomach. I threw up several times after this and it continued on into Wednesday night. We called Dr. Norton's office and she called in a prescription for Phenergan suppositories to help with the nausea. If anything it knocked me out for a few hours, so at least the sleep was nice. At 10:00 Wednesday night I still couldn't keep anything down...not water or anything and I still had the horrible burning pain in my stomach. Jason called Dr. Norton again and she had us head into Labor and Deliver at Bergan to get checked out. I had labs drawn to check my gall bladder, and thankfully those came back negative. I was super dehydrated so I got 3 bags of IV fluids that I swear all went into my right hand...my hand was huge and swollen the next morning! Oh well, I was peeing and feeling better. I got some different IV meds for nausea and what they call a "GI cocktail". I felt pretty good my Thursday morning and I was ready to go home. Then the nurse put me and baby back on the monitor and told me I was having contractions. I couldn't feel them...just tightening but no pain. She let Dr. Norton know and Dr. Norton came to see me and said with this being my second baby she was not "impressed" by these contractions at 34 weeks. She discharged me, and home we went! Thursday night I started to feel the burning pain again, and nauseas, but not to the extent as it had been. I took some more nausea meds and went to bed. I woke up this morning feeling pretty good and I hope it stays that way because tonight is Lily's second birthday PARTY!
