Our Week So Far....

This has been one of the longest weeks of my life lately.  

Monday, we went to the specialist, per usual on a Monday. While doing the ultrasound, they noticed Remington's heart rate was over 200 beats per minute, and detected his PAC (premature aortic contractions) again, which was one of the reasons they sent us to Vandy a few weeks ago.  They sent me downstairs to see my OB and sit on the monitor for an hour to watch his heart rate.  
She saw the racing, but it settled and she felt comfortable letting us go home.  She said that if we see it again Thursday, we will go ahead and go over to the hospital, start on steroids for his lungs, and work on a delivery plan.  

Monday when I got back to work, I started feeling exhausted, achy, my head was throbbing, and I couldn't focus.  I kept feeling like I was running a fever with chills and all.  I got home, took my temperature, and sure enough I was running a fever of 100.5, I called my doctor's office and she said it sounded flu-like enough to call in Tamiflu. 

Tuesday was spent on the couch, in and out of sleep, counting kicks and rolls of my sweet boy to make sure he's all good in there.  

It's only Wednesday and I'm exhausted.  I hope your weeks are going much more smoothly!
