Hospital stay

So about our adventure after the birth of Natali. On Monday, May 7th, I woke up in the afternoon from a nap feeling chilly which sometimes happens because I get cold easily. But about an hour later and I was still having chills and started not feeling well, I took my temperature and it was 101.7. I don't usually get fevers that high. So later in the evening it crept up to like 102.5 and I was miserable. We called to see if my doctor was on call and she was (thank the Lord for this) and she called in an antibiotic. Josh picked it up and I took it and Tylenol the whole evening. In the morning, my temp was 103.2 or something like that. So we were very concerned at this point, called the doctor and she said to go to the emergency room because she didn't like my fever being so high. (Ok this is a long story and I shouldn't bore you with the details)
So we went to the ER, got lots of bloodwork done, got an I.V. cath with fluids and antibiotics, and watched soap operas with the words on the screen for a few hours. So much fun. So they found out I had a really bad kidney infection and wanted to at least keep me overnight in the hospital. I got to go to post-pardom so Natali could stay in the room. (Thank the Lord again). I ended up having E.Coli infection in my bloodstream and my urinary system and kidneys. This is probaby from the delivery and how not so clean that whole process is. After 5 days of some of the yuckiest days I have had, lots of fluids and antibiotics, good doctors and nurses, lots of help from parents, lots of prayers, and all else that went on, I was able to go home on Mother's Day!! :) It was the best present I could have asked for. So that's that!! Our second hospital trip in a few weeks. Didn't think that would ever happen.

Coming home

So Natali is home and she was greeted by both cats. They were very unsure and sniffed her, then ran the other way. :) It was pretty funny. So here are the pics of the car ride home and the kitties saying "hello" to Natali. More to come on our next adventure we have been through last week.
