Day II

Wake up call is at 6 am, starting with a fever check. Blood tests. Food. Meds/aerosol. Monitoring of baby's heart rate and contractions (its a machine that they attach you to with 2 big eeg/ekg type things, you can't move for the whole time it is attached and if you the monitoring is lost, you have to start all over again). Ekg monitoring. Buzzing cloud of Drs and Student Drs (san raffaele is also a research facility and school), that come in, stare out you while one person explains what youve got and then they move on. Feeling slightly better, but not much, I still cant breath and tremor if I try to talk. There is still a lot of phlegm so breathing is tiresome and I cant breath deeply. Max has taken time off of work to take care of Sophia and bring new clothes and water to me every day. Aside from the almost constant monitoring, the day is uneventful. Thank goodness Karol and Cristian have watched Sophia for us.

No word on H1N1.
