Another hospital stay and still no baby!

Yesterday was horrible. I'm fairly sure I had food poisoning, which by itself it horrid, but of course like anything else is worse when you are pregnant. So bad, in fact, that I ended up back in labor and delivery to get some fluids, Zofran, and antibiotics once they found out I had yet another infection. Jonathan and I spent all morning in the hospital and the afternoon sleeping. I had been awake all night and needed desperately to take a nap. Today, I am still following the BRAT diet and slowly introducing new foods, but I am so afraid of upsetting my stomach that I don't think I'll be having a cheeseburger anytime soon, although I REALLY WANT ONE! I'm concerned with Emma's lack of movement, but was told that it was to be expected since I was so ill.

I called Jonathan to come home around 7:30 and I swear, he was home in 10 seconds. When he got home, I realized that I could not possibly go to the hospital. I completely froze and started to cry like a little kid who didn't want to go to bed. Luckily, my husband is very calming and got me into the car. I could tell he was stressed out because as far as he knew, this could be it. He even asked me if we should get our bags before we left. I assured him that this was not labor, but I was instructed by the doctor to get to the hospital to get some fluids and possibly some meds.

It was a good 'test run' for the actual day... which I pray to God is soon!
