Scary couple of days

So the last few days have been intense! I went to bed Tues. nite feeling really sore and like I was getting sick at like 730. Woke up Tues. in a full fledged sickness and so I went to the Dr. Got tested for H1N1 and was told we needed to wait until Monday for results! Madness! You are seriously going to tell a pregnant woman who's heard NOTHING but "you and/or your child are going die" that she needs to stay home and wait 6 days to know what's going on...Bad Call!
So I've stayed home and slept non stop. Yesterday I started sweating profusely and freaking out because of frying my poor little boy! Matt put me in some cold water and got my temp down and I was finally able to rest. But then..I could not feel our sweet baby boy move for almost two whole days which is terrifying. I just could not even figure out how to deal. SO I tried to make him move and poked him gently and drank orange juice and was laying down a lot...but to no avail. So, we decided to call the dr. The doctor said that if we did have h1n1 that we needed to go to the hospital because decreased fetal movement is an emergency symptom. :( So this morning we decided to finally go. They hooked us up to a fetal monitor and watched for contractions and did an overall exam and said all looked well. I was just very relieved to hear him and to see his movements on the monitor. The nurse said that he must have moved into a different position and that's why I couldn't feel him. But anyway, sorry this is so long...long story to say that Landon is so healthy and doing great and I am beginning to feel better now...finally! We have such an awesome God who is so protective and I am incredibly thankful!
