Hospital-Weaning-Sleep-thru-night

*5th-Thursday afternoon I starting coming down with something and by the evening, after Jason's Social Work Graduation dinner, I had a fever and the chills.  With a blessing and comfort from Jase, I was able to sleep and the fever broke over night, so I thought I was in the clear.
*6th-But, when the morning came around, everything and more came even harder.  Thanks to 'Good Friday' I had no school and my mom and Pi'i came out to watch Nanea because by then, I was vomitting had diarhea, body aches and more nausea (sorry for the descriptions).  I couldn't keep anything in. This lasted throughout the day.  I tried to wait out the 103.4 degree and 102 degree fevers with popsicles and ti-leafs, but had no luck.  That night Jason had Culture Night.  This is when we officially started making Nanea sleep thru the night and weaning her because I literally had no energy to get up and feed because I hadn't eaten much.*7th (Saturday)-Jason had an assignment due at 7am, to set up the TVA Easter Egg hunt, and weight loss weigh-in.  I wasn't doing any better so he took me to the doctor, which basically led to being checked into Kahuku Hospital since nothing improved within the next 2 hours.  While there, I got hooked up to the IV, got a bunch of other meds to alieviate the back and body aches and all the other symptoms, but there really was not much process after 2 IV bags, so they kept me there over night.  Meanwhile, our neighbors watched Nanea and then my mother and Pii came back over in the evening.  I knew Jase would have no problem because he's an awesome father and knows Nanea so well. She drank warm milk from her sippie-cup, watched Shrek and went to sleep.

*8th (Sunday)-I was cleared to check out at 9am and came home to my beautiful family who I have definitely taken advantage of.  Just 1 night away from them was 1 night too long.  I missed them so much.  Now Nanea cannot nurse for this week because of the meds I have to take which has led to the weaning by default.  She is handling it much better than I am simply because I was not ready to part with my special time I get to cuddle with her.  I know other mommies look forward to this moment, but I'm quite the opposite.  I feel such a close bond with my beautiful daughter (not that daddy doesn't have one too).  I will miss the times that she looks at me while nursing and feels my face and plays with my shirt, etc. Sleeping thru the night, however, is much needed. Hopefully that means mommy will be in a better mood!
