a scare

well it has been a crazy week. E has not been feeling well at all for about 2 days straight she has been severly ill. anything that she ate or drank she would just let back up. even water. so to say the least she has felt dizzy and lightheaded. so we decided to go to OBGYN and she sd that we need to get to the hospital right away. so we went and they hooked her up to an IV .. and she has been there now for 2 nites. she seems to be getting better but still not 100%. i try my best to take care of her5 on my own. but sometimes things just get out of your league. i have been ther w/ her everyday. my work has been cool . and understanding so i have been gettin the time off. we just sit around watching lost season 2 on DVD. ( sorry mike i could not wait. i went and rented it)
on top of not feeling well w/ the vomiting, she has got a cold now as well. which is why they really want her to stay there overnite. so that they have a nurse there waking her up every for hours to take some medicine. i feel bad for her. just seeing her sick and there is nothing in my power that i can do to help her. she knows that i am there for her a 100% and will b for the rest of our lives.
at first they had no idea what was wrong w/ her they originally thought that she may have a bacteria or something of that nature. however, they have diagnosed her with hyperemesis gravdarum (i think i spelt it right that was all off of memory, not to bad)
which is severe vomiting and nauseau, with the inability to eat or drink ne thing. as well it can cause your blood pressure to drop. hers has been fairly low and they are monitoring that in the hospital.
as far as the baby goes it is healthy as can be with a regular heartbeat (which we heard and was awesome) and it is growing @ the correct speed. he/she is now 4 inches in lenght and has formed arms and legs. it was pretty cool in the ultrasound the other day the baby had its legs crossed just lounging. than it was bouncing around like a jumping bean. who knows maybe it will be the next dance dance revolution champion ( sorry brehan)
alrighty well visiting hours are not until 10. but they have been letting me in @ 8 so i am gonna go jump in the shower and than roll to the hospital. i will keep you all posted and let you knwo what is going on. hope you are having a wonderful holiday season.
PEACE OUT.

Hang in there. I know how frustrated you feel with your inability to fix E. Unfortunatly there is nothing you can do other then be there to support her which you always are. I wish we were closer and I could just jump in the car and visit E and then take you out for a drink. You both are in my prayers and I hope E has a quick recovery and things are all smooth sailing from here on out.

It does not surprise me that your baby likes to jump around you always needed to be doing something and it usually was physical. Give E a hug for me and take care of yourself.
