Yesterday night I started to feel not so good again... my throat was finally almost better but then my stomach started getting rumbly... :( I made dinner, but just the smell of it made my stomach hurt worse, so I didn't eat any of it. Luckily, Gaetan said it was really good, but I don't think that I'm going to be trying it anytime soon! I did get sick all night... which made my stomach feel a little better. When I woke up in the morning the weirdest thing was my legs hurt SO BAD. Like I was having growing pains or something... it very strange.
Pretty much ever since he's gotten better he's been taking care of me. I never kicked the sickness but while he was sick I was more 'healthy' so I was back into taking care of the kiddos. But he is definitely taking care of everything! He has let me sleep all day (except for when Baby Girl needs to eat of course). And I've actually been sleeping too... when I was sick with the fever I just laid around and didn't really sleep, but today I have slept all day. The fever did come back but not nearly as bad as before, so that's good.
I've been able to keep down some water, flat ginger ale and a few ritz crackers. I even tried a peach. I'm thinking I'm going to try some soup next because I think my stomach hurts because of being hungry now. I always joked about losing the baby weight faster, and this was the way it happened! I have lost 7 lbs since I've gotten sick.. which is a little over 5% of my body weight! Crazy! I am back to pre-Tristan weight, but still have a few more pounds to lose to get to pre-Lucy weight.
I am so lucky to have a husband/Papa who is so willing to step up and take care of his family. I know that he likes spending time with the kids, but its a lot of effort! He is truly a blessing to me, and I know I struck is WAY good :) God is good to us.
