On Thursday morning, I woke up with intense back and stomach pain. I had chills and sweats all night without a fever. I tried drinking water and threw that up immediately. I called the doctor's office and they told me to come in first thing. I was really worried I might be in pre-term labor because the pain was so bad.
My OB doctor said I have a GI (gastrointestinal) virus which will probably last 24-48 hours. She recommended an IV for fluids. I was admitted to the OB triage at the hospital and received an IV with Stadol (pain reliever) and Finnegan (nausea medicine). I was in the OB unit for about 5 hours then I was able to go home. I slept the rest of the day and most of Friday. Oma flew in Thursday afternoon to help with Rainey (thank goodness!!).
Today, I feel much better. No more pain and I am able to eat and drink. Phew, what a long two days!
