Hello again, stomach flu. Please leave and never come back.

a few weeks ago, Jeff had the stomach flu. He threw up once, and felt better in 12 hours.

Last night, I caught the same bug. Thew up constantly for 12 hours, and then had to be admitted to the hospital. needless to say, I was pretty bitter.

Don't worry, everything is fine. We went to the hospital because I was worried about dehydration and how that would affect madison. my midwife was sweet enough to wake up in the middle of the night and assure me that I was doing the right thing.

After a couple of bags of saline and some anti-nausea medication, I felt much better. The nurses were amazed by how unaffected madison had been. She kept moving and kicking and doing flips the entire time, as if nothing was wrong.

I have an amazing little girl. Jeff joked with me that she must be a fire monster baby. She's definitely a fighter.

And today I'm feeling so much better. I'm still taking things slow, unlike madison who is continuing to do kicks and flips. I love this little girl. And I love my midwives, and my nurses.
