24 hour hospital stay

I woke up Saturday morning cramping really badly. Fearing something was wrong with the baby, I called my doctor and she told me to head to the hospital to get on the fetal monitor to make sure I wasn't having contractions. Once we got to the hospital, my lower back was hurting so badly, I could hardly sit up. Thankfully, the baby was fine and I wasn't having contractions. Here comes the fun part, figuring out what was wrong with me... after many hours of sitting, laying, giving blood, two IV attempts and a ultrasound of my kidneys, it turns out I have a severe kidney infection. The doctors decided to keep me overnight so they could monitor me and see if I have stones (which I didn't...thank goodness!)

I must say that pain was very intense and became very nauseous several times due to the pain. I was thankful I had no stones (which I heard hurt worse than giving birth). I got home this afternoon and now have to take it easy this week, drink lots of water and take my antibiotics. The only positive was I got to listen to Clayton's (we FINALLY picked a name) heartbeat, moving and hiccuping for several hours!
