Forced Sabbath

The food poisoning fairy has been by to visit the Hann house and has forced me to take a Sabbath. This is not a welcome Sabbath, as I was planning to take one anyway... and wasn't planning to take one that involved a night of vomiting and a morning with an IV in my arm. On the upside, we did get to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time! On the downside, I am still super dizzy and have a hard time standing up. Sucks.

I can't remember the last time I was sick like this. I think this is the first time I have vomited since early high school...maybe even longer than that. The whole dizziness thing is the worst part since it puts me on forced bedrest and I can't drive anywhere. I'm hungry, but I'm on a clear liquids diet for 24 hours, then a BRAT diet for the 24 after that, and I'm worried I'm not getting enough calories in for baby. How do I get sufficient caloric intake off of gatorade and chicken broth? Ugh.

At least I don't have to miss work or use any of my sick days. Pray that I'll get better fast so I can get back into the swing of things...I had a lot of stuff planned for this week and not getting it done is not an option. Taxes and the like. Double ugh.
