Well, yesterday I didn't feel so hot all day, I woke up the day before with SOMETHING wrong with my chest! I was short of breath and had that VERY annoying cough that no one likes to listen to. So we went to the doctor and they gave me a breathing treatment and then told me to continue them at home...thanks goodness! The Dr. said there is SO MUCH sickness going around that it could be any number of things...upper respiratory virus, bronchitis, etc. Luckily, with no fever and other worse symptoms, pnemonia was ruled out. So here's what the rest of my evening/night looked like:
2:30-6:30 - nap
6:30 - breathing treatment in which Taylor did not like and cried watching me
8:00 - tried to eat some dinner but no appetite
9:00 - fell asleep on the couch
10:00 - Dave woke me up to go up to bed, in which I went to sleep with my contacts in...oops!
11:00 - Woke up having a hard time breathing = breathing treatment
12:00 - laid in bed trying to fight from throwing up
12:30 - head over toilet!
12:45- 99 degree fever, couldn't stop shivering! (words of the Dr. and thoughts of pnemonia running through my mind!)
1:30- 100.6 degree fever
1:30-3:00am - laid in bed miserable, freaking out about my fever, wondering whether to call the Dr., worrying about the baby, body aching, coughing, taking my temperature every 10 min. (the Dr. said 101 I'd probably need to go to ER...so I was quite worried about it hitting 101!)
3:00 - breathing treatment
3:15ish - finally fell asleep and woke up several hours later soaking wet from my fever breaking
Poor Dave...he was up and down all night helping me and is exhausted today from little sleep!
We had big plans today...shopping in Wichita; going to Winfield for one of my best friends wedding receptions; and my last jewelry show before the baby.
Yesterday the Dr. (family practice not OB) told me not to do ANYTHING all weekend and really said I shouldn't go back to work. I had planned to ignore ALL of these directions until going downhill last night. So now, it looks as though I will be on the couch and in bed all day today and who knows what next week will bring. Yes, Dave is SUPPOSSED to be going back to Greensburg...we'll see! We are just saying major prayers for Taylor and Dave to stay healthy, this is BAD timing for anyone else to get sick with our baby boy coming in less than 2 weeks!
Tip from our house to yours: Quarantine yourselves in your house to keep from getting ANYTHING that is out there!! It's EVERYWHERE!!!!
