A trip to the hospital

Why do I feel as if every time I make a trip to the Dr. or the hospital it's just a huge waste of time? Probably because it is. 

Last night Big E brought me to the hospital. I had been so nauseous since the day before I have been barely eating or drinking. Then starting from when I woke up yesterday morning I was feeling so dizzy I almost passed out from it. So we went to the hospital to have me checked out after all day of debating whether or not to go. 

In the hospital they just took a pee sample, which if you looked at you could definitely tell I was dehydrated by the color. Then they monitored me and Squirt for an hour. 

It was a wasted trip. All I was told was that I was being released and that dizziness is part of being pregnant. Glad to know that. The nausea I've had almost the entire pregnancy but the dizziness was new and sudden. 

I guess next time I'll just lie down in bed and sleep all day like I wanted to. 

So we left and got some drinks. I probably should have got a water but I couldn't even stomach the idea so I just got a powerade to drink. Then we headed home where I ate some food and came to lie down. After a little while of that and drinking some water my dizziness turned into a horrible headache. So I ended up giving in and taking some Tylenol. 

In the hospital there were absolutely no contractions. I feel as if this pregnancy is going to last forever now, and I don't even feel like he's coming soon. Although I was hoping by today because tomorrow Big E has a job interview 3 hours away so I'll be alone with Little E all day after my appointment. Then Wednesday is the WiC class I was hoping to just send Big E to because I'd have a newborn, but I'll be going to that now myself. And Thursday Big E has a surgery (outpatient so not too bad) so I'll be alone again with Little E that day and I'm sure he won't be up for driving on Friday either. 

It just scares me because the hospital is at least a 45 minute drive away and I'm terrified that I might be driving myself while in pain. I guess I can head that way when it's not horrible and just walk their walking path at the hospital to see where things go. My mother-in-law works a block away from the hospital and she can get off to help with Little E thankfully. 

Otherwise I'm just hoping he either comes today or he holds off till Saturday.
