So Tuesday morning I felt pretty decent, but then it just went straight downhill. I started having severe lower back and pelvic pains...we thought maybe I was having braxton hicks contractions, but they got continually worse. Out of nowhere I began vomiting pure bile - I hadn't had anything to eat.
Well, we ended up at the hospital, where I was admitted and strapped to a fetal monitor and given an IV of fluids. At this point I couldn't even keep water down and kept vomiting bile. Anna Marie's heart rate was really low and we were pretty scared.
Wednesday didn't get much better - they tried to give me jello and popsiciles but I couldn't keep either down, but Thursday I was visited by an internalist and a gastroenterologist, and they put me on new nausea medication and a medication to cut down the acid in my stomach.
Thankfully by monday I was doing better and able to keep food down, so after a week in the hospital I'm home. Now I have to recuperate in time for Anna Marie to make her grand entrance!
