So freaking sick!

Oh my god I've been on my deathbed! Vomiting and diarrhea from about 6pm Sunday night until about 7am Monday morning. Couldn't even keep down the tiniest sips of water. Then we went to the ER on advice from the OBGYN to get some IV fluids. My blood pressure was so low they thought I was going to pass out and my heart rate was very high. All of which show how "bone dry" I was. Two bags of fluid later and I barely had to pee. Not good. My potassium was low, I was anemic and my chloride was low- whatever that means! Thankfully the baby was fine. Apparently when you start to vomit like that your pregnant body "shunts" all your nutrients into the baby (good thinking mother nature). So not only am I loosing my nutrients into the toilet but then the rest gets sucked into the baby. Which puts me really low. They also gave me some good stuff for the nausea which did help. We were there for about 6 hours! Can't even image that bill-thank god for insurance! Today I just slept all day. Finally able to eat a little: bananas, toast, tea and gatorade. My body is so achy from all the vomiting. Thanks for all your help the past few days, Chris. Couldn't have done it without you.
