Whoops! Spoke too soon. :( They're keeping him overnight. His #s went down a little (though he's certain it's diluted? :rolleyes:) Guess the twins and I are alone tonight. *sigh*

According to the scales at the hospital, I lost weight between Tuesday and this morning. But I have no idea how much or what I ended with... Guess I'll try weighing in the AM. Good job everyone!!!

Update: I'm home with the twins (got sprung around 9:30 and went straight to Nathan's room, then MIL brought twins and I brought them home). The doc wanted to keep him long enough to check his HNH two more times (they drew the 2nd set about an hour ago?) and most likely he'll be coming home...

Thanks. We're lucky to have family and friends nearby to help. Doesn't make the stress much less, but at least our babies and dogs are taken care of. I just found out that he's out of the endoscopy and they found 3 ulcers, a hiatal (sp?) hernia, and esophogitus (sp?). He's going to be in...

I don't have the hormones. I didn't carry them (see my post called "Life Changing Steps" from about a year ago). And I'm assuming you're making a joke about quiet and solitude. I AM in a hospital after all. ;)

2 at one time? Never. Last infant she took care of was her 16 year old son. I know they'll be fine, but yes, I'm a bit stressed about that as well. :(

Janet, I'm able to still do my job from the hospital. It's totally online and the hospital has wireless. I'm at the Heart Hospital in Plano. If I've gotta be stuck in the hospital for 72 hours of boredom, at least it's at a swanky hospital. ;) I will be getting out tomorrow after my 10 AM...

If I ever see my doctor, I'd be happy to ask. Unfortunately, I've yet to see him. And probably won't until late tonight if at all today, knowing him. :rolleyes: I love the guy, I really do. But there is much to be desired in his communication skills.

One night down, two to go. People keep telling me "At least you'll get to catch up on some sleep." HA! Those people must not know about the hospitals' vow to never let a patient sleep through the night! I was awakened 4 times for vitals (finally just woke up completely with the last one), 1...

Here here! Ross is our white knight. I love the guy. I hate that he is grieving. :( I wish I could put my arms around him and give him a big ol' hug. It never ceases to amaze me how close you can get to someone you've never even met. Ross is certainly one of those people. Love you, man!

If I continue to have to eat the hospital food, I'm sure to lose a few pounds, right? :p And as bored as I am, I might even take a few million laps around the floor just to get away from these four walls. Interestingly, they are the EXACT same walls I had to look at back in November...

I've been here for 5 hours. Nathan and the babies brought me here and they left about 2 hours ago. I already miss them. :( I don't know when they will come tomorrow, but I'm betting it won't be until afternoon. I doubt Nathan will be able to get them out the door any earlier (if he can...

I have the Concerto! Freakiest thing to me is that they can check me "wirelessly" now. I've had a pacemaker since I was 7, so I've seen the technology evolve. I've never had the defib portion go off, so I can't speak to that, but I've been 100% dependent in the ventricles for a very long...

Tomorrow's the day I go into the hospital. Only they're not starting Sotalol. They're going to start me on Tikosyn instead. When they started talking about using something else I'd hoped it would be Dronedarone (no hospital stay for that one), but alas it was not to be. *sigh* :(

:( You, Tbone, and his family are in my prayers. I'm so saddened to read of this loss. :(

Wow. Leave you all alone for a bit and you go sex crazy. :rolleyes: ;) I seem to have found the pound I lost last week. But I did eat out a couple of times, so that probably has something to do with it. DH has not helped matters by asking for "Taco Mac" (mac 'n' cheese with taco meat) and...

We had face-to-face class on Sunday. I had to give a lecture to 160+ grad students. Just a tad intimidating, but I survived. The hardest part was being away from my babies all day (and half of Saturday when I helped set up for Sunday). I rushed home to them as fast as I could and showered...

Then again, maybe not. He just came back with FIVE different flavors of ice cream! :eek:

Yesterday my husband uttered the following words: "I have GOT to lose some weight!" Now, the doctors and I have been saying this for awhile, but maybe (and it's a big maybe) he'll finally follow through? Sure would make it easier for me to do the same. He has had a bad back for a while and...

I liked my Wed. weight better. But I'll take the 1 lb. loss for today. I didn't do anything special to lose the weight, my twins just wouldn't let me eat!
