The Last Couple Weeks

So since we have been home from Taylin's birth we were trying to figure out her schedule and we have been blessed with such an amazing child!! She is a very content baby she really only cries if she is hungry (or has gas) but other then that she is a really good baby. She sleeps anywhere from 3-5 hour stretches at night so we are blessed with a great baby. Well as we were just getting settled into her schedule I ended up getting sick.

I had been having sever chills and hot flashes for about a week and finally my mom said that's not normal let's take your temp so to make a long story short on Saturday 8/30 I had a temp of 104.3!!

We went to a walk in clinic where they were concerned that I might have some sort of infection in my uterus so they sent me to the ER. I ended up spending the last week in the hospital, I didn't have the infection in my uterus but I did have mastitis (not fun at all!!) So they began treating me for "normal" mastitis but I wasn't getting better. They finally had the infectious disease doctor come see me and they did some more tests and figured out that I had a staph infection. Once they started treating me for that I started to improve much more quickly and I was finally released from the hospital on Saturday 9/6!! They still have me on oral antibiotics so lets just pray that kicks the rest of the infection. It's really nice to be home!!!
