Thank you all for the prayers and positivity - apparently the doctor has just been round and made reassuring comments :T
That said, she will be in for another night. I think she's been very lucky to avoid spending a night in hospital at the age of twenty-something, but it's not particularly relaxing from what I recall?
She has been instructed to rest, which is good. The hospital is nearby, but I'm not sure if I'm going to find time to visit during the 3 different sets of visiting hours, get the house presentable and put in a token 'appearance' via work VPN
These things always seem better in the light of a new day
