This has been a hellacious week. I started having bad gas cramping on Sunday night, then woke up Monday to extreme unpleasantness - couldn't keep anything in my stomach. I thought it was just repercussions from over indulging at the Melting Pot on Saturday night, but when I was still feeling awful on Tuesday, I decided it had to be more than that. I called the doc. and one of his nurses prescribed some anti-nausea meds. They helped a little, but on Wednesday the thought of eating was still completely off putting. Yesterday wasn't much better, but I was able to keep down some soup and toast (up that point all I'd attempted was applesauce and crackers, in moderation). I'm really lucky that I have the ability to work from home so I didn't have to take PTO for the whole week. I'm back in the office today, but probably going to duck out a little early b/c I still don't feel 100%. On the plus side, I don't think I've had a fever all day, and I've successfully eaten some applesauce, a granola bar, and some grapes and cottage cheese.
The other big bummer about being sick was we had to miss our childbirth class, and this was the session with the hospital tour, which means we'll have to try and schedule a tour at a separate time.
The non-stress test on Monday went fine - Baby T passed with no problems - even though he/she got the hiccups halfway through, which I was worried would interfer with the movement measurements. I go back on Monday again and doc wants to run another non-stress.
